Facelifts cannot correct all of the indications of aging or injury that develop on the face over time. However, several treatments can be used in conjunction with facelifts to provide even more rejuvenation, such as brow lifts, eyelid surgery, and fillers for the face and all can be done at the Dallas Plastic Institute from Surgeon Sam Jejurikar M.D.

Facelift therapy needs anesthesia.  Board-certified surgeon Sam Jejurikar M.D. will dictate the type of anesthetic that is best for you during your pre-surgery appointment. He’ll cut behind the forehead at the cheekbones, around the ear, and down to the lower scalp. As a result, your scars will be disguised under your hair and in the natural wrinkles of your cheeks. He’ll then reshape or redistribute the fat, lift the muscles and underlying tissues, then redrape and cut the surplus skin. If you have a neck lift, he will create a second incision beneath your chin also.

After a facelift, you should experience some swelling and pain, which should disappear after a week or two. But, after two to three weeks, you will see results and be able to continue your daily activities if you have any questions about facelift operations. Sam Jejurikar M.D. will be happy to consult with your plastic surgery needs.
