Restore your youthful facial contours
A facelift restores youthful contours by lifting and tightening sagging skin, smoothing deep wrinkles, and redefining your jawline. Over time, aging, gravity, and sun exposure can cause skin laxity and volume loss. A facelift addresses these concerns by repositioning underlying tissues and removing excess skin for a naturally refreshed appearance. Dr. Slack specializes in tasteful, sophisticated results—never overdone. Whether you want subtle rejuvenation or a more dramatic transformation, a facelift can help you look as vibrant as you feel.
Possible reasons to consider a facelift
- You notice sagging skin along your jawline or neck
- You feel that deep wrinkles and folds make you look older than you feel
- You have lost facial volume, leading to hollow or sunken areas
- You want to restore a firmer, more youthful appearance
- You are bothered by jowls or loose skin around your lower face
- You want long-lasting facial rejuvenation that non-surgical treatments can’t achieve
- You seek a natural, refreshed look without appearing overdone
- You want to enhance your confidence in both personal and professional settings
What can I expect during the consultation?
During your consultation with Dr. Slack, you’ll discuss your concerns, goals, and expectations. She will evaluate your facial structure, skin quality, and areas of volume loss to determine the best approach for a natural, refined result. Dr. Slack will explain the facelift process, review your medical history, and discuss complementary procedures like neck lift or fat grafting if needed. You’ll have the opportunity to ask questions and see before-and-after photos. By the end, you’ll have a personalized plan tailored to your unique aesthetic goals.
What happens during the facelift procedure?
On the day of your facelift, you will be placed under anesthesia. Dr. Slack carefully makes discreet incisions along your hairline and around your ears to minimize visible scarring. She lifts and repositions the underlying facial tissues, tightening muscles and restoring youthful contours. Excess skin is removed, and the remaining skin is redraped smoothly for a natural, refined look. If needed, fat grafting or a neck lift may be performed for enhanced results. Once complete, Dr. Slack closes the incisions meticulously, ensuring an elegant appearance.
What can I expect during recovery after a facelift?
In the first week after surgery, you can expect some swelling, bruising, and tightness in your face and neck. Dr. Slack will provide detailed post-operative instructions, including how to care for your incisions, manage discomfort, and reduce swelling with cold compresses and head elevation. Most patients take 10 to 14 days off work and social activities. Stitches are typically removed within the first week, and you may begin to see early improvements in your contours.
By weeks three to four, swelling continues to diminish, and you’ll feel more comfortable resuming light activities. Strenuous exercise should be avoided for at least four to six weeks. As residual swelling fades, your results will refine over the next few months, revealing a smoother, firmer, and naturally rejuvenated appearance. Dr. Slack will see you for follow-up appointments throughout your recovery to monitor your healing and ensure optimal results.
How long do facelift results last?
A facelift provides long-lasting rejuvenation, but no procedure can stop the natural aging process. Most patients enjoy their results for 10 to 15 years, depending on factors like skin quality, lifestyle, and genetics. To maintain your results, Dr. Slack recommends a healthy skincare routine, sun protection, and non-surgical treatments like BOTOX® or dermal fillers to address minor signs of aging as they appear.
Will I look unnatural or overly pulled after a facelift?
Dr. Slack specializes in natural, sophisticated results. Her meticulous technique focuses on repositioning underlying tissues rather than simply pulling the skin, ensuring that your face looks refreshed and youthful—not tight or overdone. By restoring volume where needed and tailoring the procedure to your unique facial structure, she achieves an elegant, refined outcome.
