Manhattan Facelift Surgery

Procedure:
When performing facelift surgery, Manhattan, the surgeon places an inconspicuous incision inside the hairline and tucked behind the ears. The underlying facial muscles are then tightened, any excess skin is removed, and the remaining skin is then draped gently in place, and the incision sutured. Facelift surgery is usually performed on an outpatient basis under general or local anesthesia.

Risks:
All surgical procedures involve a degree of risk. Patients pursuing facelift surgery in Manhattan, however, can better avoid these risks through awareness and patient/doctor communication. Some of the possible risks involved with facelift surgery include injury to facial nerves and sensation, bleeding, infection, excessive scarring, or asymmetry.

Recovery:
Most Manhattan facelift surgery patients are back to work in about 10-14 days after surgery, but go a bit longer than 2 weeks before being able to attempt anything more strenuous. Bruising should be fading nicely by this time, but may take a bit longer to completely dissipate.

Additional Options:
Plenty of women pursue just facelift surgery in Manhattan, as a stand alone procedure. However, the results can be further enhanced when performed in conjunction with another cosmetic procedure. Many Manhattan facelift surgery patients combine the facelift with a rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, or a neck lift.
