Why Choose a Facelift and Neck Lift?
As we age, our skin loses elasticity, leading to sagging skin, deep wrinkles, and a tired appearance, especially around the face and neck. A facelift (rhytidectomy) and neck lift (platysmaplasty) are surgical procedures designed to reverse these signs of aging by tightening and lifting the underlying muscles and removing excess skin. The following advantages highlight how a facelift and neck lift procedure can deliver stunning rejuvenation results:
- Tightens loose skin on the face and neck
- Reduces jowls and sagging skin around the jawline
- Smooths deep wrinkles and folds around the mouth and cheeks
- Enhances neck definition, removing “turkey neck” or excess fat
- Delivers long-lasting results, with effects lasting for years

Facelift Surgery: What Should I Expect During the Procedure and Recovery
To ensure your safety following general anesthesia, you’ll need to arrange for a loved one or friend to provide transportation back home and stay with you the first night. You will be provided with detailed preoperative and post-operative instructions based on the details of your treatment plan, but here is a general idea of what to expect with the procedure and recovery.
Facelift and Neck Lift Procedure- Your surgery will be performed under general anesthesia in our state-of-the-art surgical suite by Dr. Zol Kryger. Using advanced techniques to minimize healed visibility, the doctor places the incisions as outlined in your treatment plan. The doctor will then repair stretched and fallen facial muscles and other underlying structures and then lift and reposition them before removing excess skin and redraping it and closing incisions.
Recovery and Results- One to Two weeks of downtime and mild swelling and bruising for a few days post-surgery is to be expected. Oral pain medication is available if needed, however many patients find that cold packs and over the counter pain relief are sufficient. Although modern facelift procedures go deeper, they actually offer an easier recovery and less bruising because they don’t rely on skin tension to provide the needed lift. Your rejuvenation results will continue to emerge and become refined over several months.
