Face & Neck Lift
Conveniently located to serve Miami and Dade County
Dr. Michael Rodriguez performs face and neck lifts for Miami patients who are interested in restoring a revitalized and youthful appearance. The youthful face and neck have a well-defined jaw line, soft but sharp neck contour, and soft expression lines around the mouth.
As we age, facial volumes change, and skin collagen content decrease resulting in the development of less-than-desirable changes in our face and neck area. To be more specific, we progressively lose facial fat, facial ligaments suspending tissue stretch, and worsening skin collagen content results in wrinkle formation. As a result, we see a crease form under our eyes, the parenthesis sign around our mouth deepens, and the definition and transition from face to neck are lost.
Benefits of a Face and Neck Lift
Of all the procedures for the face and neck, no other procedure has quite as much of an impact on an overall improvement in expression and facial sagging as face and neck lift procedures. Improvements most commonly noted are softening of the parenthesis sign around the mouth, definition of the jawline, and neck angle and contour improvement.
Dr. Rodriguez‘s face and neck lift takes years off the clock and allows patients to look like they feel. This advanced and minimally invasive lift procedure can be performed in a short amount of time without the need for general anesthesia.
Candidates also have the option of undergoing additional procedures simultaneously to address other areas and enhance their results.
What Happens During the Face and Neck Lift Procedure?
The face and neck lift is performed under local anesthesia with sedation to make the patient comfortable and free of any pain. Incisions are created in the ear region and sometimes also under the chin. These allow access to the underlying tissues. Excess fat and skin are removed, and drooping muscle tissue is tightened using internal sutures. Finally, the incisions are closed with the help of stitches.
What to Expect During the Healing Process
Recovery time ultimately depends on the degree of sagging and amount of correction, patient healing factors, and the number and degree of simultaneous procedures performed. Dr. Rodriguez will give you recommendations to optimize your body for healing and quicken your recovery for minimal interruption in your schedule.
