You see and hear promises for fast recovery in face lifting, but these faster recoveries are often obtained because less is done and the results are poor or not long lasting.

How to get maximum efficiency in face lifting? Efficiency means less bruising, swelling and faster recovery in exchange for a better result. To do this, one has to limit the dissection to what is absolutely necessary. The examination on how the skin attaches to the deeper structures is critical. In some people the skin is very mobile in others there are strong ligaments holding the skin attached to the muscle layers. These ligaments have to be properly released to correct the laxity beyond those spots. It is really the patient’s anatomy dictating what needs to be done, but the experienced surgeon’s role is to vary the procedure according to the patients need and achieve better efficiency. It is not unusual for us to have a patient who is totally presentable and back to work five days after a full face and neck lift.
