Laser treatments
Following a mini or full facelift, we do laser treatments on some of the incisions on the area around the eyes. We do this to help accelerate scar healing and maturation and then to tighten and tone the skin to get you back to your life as quickly as possible.

therapeutic massage
Successful post-surgical recovery means getting your body to relax so that it can heal as optimally and quickly as possible. Our licensed massage therapists bring tender loving care with a series of signature massages to put your body on the best road to recovery.

the minimal incision facelift
BENEFITS A refreshed, healthy look works wonders for a rejuvenated you. Today’s connected world makes it difficult to hide out for weeks after a facelift. Additionally, many do not want the long incisions and lengthy recovery period that accompanies a more traditional lift. The Minimal Incision Facelift delivers a revitalized look with smaller incisions and a reasonable recovery. You also have the benefit of local anesthesia performed in our out-patient suite as opposed to a stay at the hospital.
DESCRIPTION
The concept of lifting is normally associated with long incisions around the ears and a series of incisions hidden within the hairline. The Minimal Incision Facelift is a less comprehensive lift that concentrates on correcting the most common and visible defects of the aging face. Minimal, in this context then, refers to a modern, selectively targeted approach. The incisions are typically along the front of the ear and are significantly smaller than a traditional lift. Special instruments are inserted and used to pull back tissue from a wider area than what is typical with long incisions.
RISKS
All surgical procedures carry risk. Anyone undergoing surgery must understand that even though the odds of a major event are small, risks from surgery are real. Whenever the skin is broken, there is the possibility of infection, necrosis, swelling, bruising, scarring, discoloration, nerve damage, itching, hematoma, pain, etc. Our goal is safety. We use a local anesthetic to decrease the risks associated with general anesthesia. We have you back for several post-op visits to monitor your healing. We are open 7 days each week and are accessible via email. We work together to reduce risk.

FACELIFT BEFORE AND AFTER PICTURES

50 year old female patient before and 1 days after a Short Scar Chicago face lift (no scars at all behind the ears!) Notice the puckering in the red outlined circle 1 day after surgery. This will rapidly diminish once the patient starts massaging two weeks after surgery. It is usually gone by one month but sometimes it takes up to three months to completely go away. This procedure took 30 minutes in the office under local anesthesia.

A 65 year old male patient before and 6 months after a direct necklift done in the office under local anesthesia which took only 20 minutes. Even though he was a candidate to get other procedures such as a facelift, cosmetic eyelid surgery, as well as injectables, the only thing that bothered him with his neck and he was willing to tolerate a small T scar. This is a very gratifying operation especially for men who can hide the scar in their beard. His retruded chin was also elevated (pushed upwards) with the procedure to look more normal and even his jowls were improved.

Same patient - notice the scars blending in without the use of any makeup or concealer. The hardest part to this operation is the initial postoperative period and looking at the red thick scar but as with all scars, it usually softens within 6-12 months to become a soft white line in most patients.

She could've had a more dramatic result with additional surgical or nonsurgical procedures but was not interested in those at this time.

67-year-old female before and 1 day after a Short Scar Face Lift & Mid Face Lift (includes lower blepharoplasty). Notice the very minimal downtime even though a mid face lift or lower blepha longest downtime and recovery of any of the cosmetic facial surgeries I perform. The eyes are central to the face and the 1st thing others notice. Even a small amount of swelling or puckering obvious here. No upper blepharoplasty was done as she was not interested in that at this time.
