What is a Facelift?

A facelift is a surgical procedure that addresses the visible signs of aging on the face and neck. It tightens loose skin, removes excess skin, smooths wrinkles and folds, and redefines the jawline and neckline. Modern facelift techniques like the ones used by Dr. White go beyond simply tightening the skin. They also address the deeper layers of the face, including the underlying facial and neck muscles and connective tissue (known as the SMAS layer). By tightening and repositioning these deeper structures, Dr. White can achieve a more natural-looking and long-lasting result. This approach can also help to improve the volume and definition of the cheeks and jawline, for a more youthful and balanced appearance. A full facelift at ARC Plastic Surgery in Fort Lauderdale, can address more extensive aging concerns, providing a comprehensive solution for both men and women.

Dr. White’s Facelift Technique by a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Dr. White utilizes a personalized approach to his Fort Lauderdale facelift surgery, often incorporating elements of the SMAS technique to tighten the underlying facial muscles and connective tissue. He also emphasizes addressing deeper fat pockets to achieve a natural and long-lasting result. It's important to note that Dr. White prioritizes patient safety and does not offer the traditional deep plane facelift procedure, which can pose a higher risk of nerve damage. Here's a deeper dive into Dr. White's facelift technique:

SMAS Technique

By tightening the SMAS layer, Dr. White can provide a more substantial and longer-lasting lift. The SMAS layer is a supportive layer that connects the skin to the underlying muscles. Tightening this layer helps to address sagging tissues and create a more youthful foundation for the face.

Addressing Deeper Fat Pockets

Excess fat deposits in the lower face and neck can cause sagging and jowls in some cases. Dr. White carefully removes or repositions these fat pockets to create a smoother and more sculpted appearance. This can also help define the jawline and improve the overall balance of the face.

Prioritizing Patient Safety

Dr. White understands that safety is paramount when it comes to cosmetic surgery. He avoids procedures that carry a higher risk of complications, such as the traditional deep plane facelift. This technique involves dissecting deeper facial structures, which can increase the risk of nerve damage. Dr. White believes that his modified approach using the SMAS technique and addressing fat pockets can achieve excellent results with a lower risk profile.

Results, Recovery, and Aftercare

Following your facelift surgery, you can expect to see visible improvements within a few weeks, but keep in mind that swelling and bruising are common and will subside gradually over several weeks to months. The full results of your Fort Lauderdale facelift, including subtle refinements and continued improvement in scar appearance, can take up to a year to become fully evident.

Recovery involves some downtime. Plan for one to two weeks of rest while swelling and bruising subside. You'll likely wear a compression garment and gradually return to normal activities as instructed by Dr. White. He'll also provide detailed aftercare instructions for incision care, which typically involve gentle cleaning and keeping them covered. Dr. White uses meticulous techniques to minimize scarring, and following his aftercare plan, including sun protection, will further promote optimal healing.
