When you are seeking a comprehensive facial enhancement, the extended facelift in Englewood is one you should consider. This procedure, which is similar to traditional facelifts, offers a larger coverage area due to longer incisions. The key advantage is the reduced visibility of scars and the ability to address the middle and lower parts of your face.
In addition, the muscle, fat, and tissues underneath the skin are adjusted to give your face a natural contour. Any loose or sagging skin is excised and re-draped from your face, upper neck, and jaw, smoothing wrinkles. This process ensures that your results are not only noticeable but also look completely natural.
When you are ready to take the next step, our highly skilled and experienced facelift plastic surgeon will evaluate you and monitor your progress throughout the procedure. This ensures that you can feel safe and confident in our hands and, ultimately, satisfied with your results.
The Benefits of an Extended Facelift
Dr. Abramson and his highly dedicated staff in Englewood are excited to offer the extended facelift. This advanced treatment uses a longer incision than a traditional facelift to address a larger area. Instead of just stopping at the earlobe, the incision travels along the back of the ear to meet the hairline for a more comprehensive treatment.
With this technology, we can tighten and lift the middle and lower parts of your face, correcting your cheeks, neck, and jawline. We can also address the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) layer, a deeper tissue beneath your skin, for longer-lasting results.
The intricacies of this procedure allow for less visible scarring because the incisions go behind your ear and into your hairline. You will appear more natural without creating an overly tight or “pulled” appearance. Our goal is to help reverse signs of aging so you can feel more confident in your personal and professional life!
What to Expect from an Extended Facelift
Dr. Abramson will provide you with a thorough consultation and evaluation before undergoing an extended facelift in our Englewood office. Most importantly, your overall health and pre-existing medical conditions will be assessed, and additional medical tests may be requested.
As we walk you through the procedure, we will discuss expected outcomes, potential risks, and your recovery process. You may be given pre-operative instructions, such as temporarily stopping medications that can increase the risk of bleeding or quitting smoking.
To ensure your comfort, you will be placed under general anesthesia, and we ensure that your procedure is safe and sterile.
Post-Procedure Instructions
After your surgery, your incisions will be closed with sutures, and you will be monitored in our recovery area as the anesthesia wears off. There may be some discomfort and swelling, but pain medication can help alleviate these symptoms. In addition, it may take several weeks or months for inflammation to subside, for tissues to settle into their new position, and to heal fully.
It is important to follow your post-operative instructions, including:
- Avoiding sun exposure
- Attending follow-up appointments
- Using specialized skincare products
- Refraining from strenuous activities
Complications are rare but can occur, such as infection, bleeding, hematoma, nerve damage, and common risks associated with anesthesia. Contact us if you have any concerns.
