Question

Answer Snippet

How Long Does a Facelift Last?

7-10 Years
Apr 27, 2016

An appropriately done facelift utilizing deeper structures, not just the skin, can be very successful and last typically 7-10 years.

A question about lower face lift and fat transfer to upper and lower cheeks. Can I ask, what procedu

Up to Doctor
Apr 27, 2016

This order doesn't really affect the outcome of your result - it's completely up to the discretion of the physician.

Question About Lipo to Tighten the Jowls and Neck After a Facelift

No Lipo Here
Apr 27, 2016

Liposuction doesn't really "tighten" - it removes fat. This is not the procedure to treat jowls ad neck after facelift.

Facelift Question. Is it normal to have part of my glands under my jawline removed?

Sometimes, but be careful
Apr 27, 2016

Removal of submandibular glands can sometimes be suggested due to large size however, it is not typical and has increased complication rate and should be performed only by people who do it routinely.

Deep Plane Facelift Question. Why Do Some Doctors Do a Deep Plane Face-Lift vs A SMAS?

Major Benefit of SMAS
Apr 27, 2016

Why one doctor does one procedure over another isn't easy to say but it may because deep plane facelift has better longevity or is potentially safer than a SMAS. However, I don't agree with either. A major benefit from SMAS lift is two fold: The SMAS controls the gravitational changes to the face, specifically facial fat like to jowls. Also, SMAS is directly connected to platysmal muscle in neck therefore by lifting the SMAS you improve appearance of neck.

Wait Until After Children for Breast Augmentation?

Breast Augmentation Before Children
Feb 29, 2016

It is not necessary to postpone breast augmentation surgery until after you have children. Most women who elect to have their breast augmentation performed prior to pregnancy do not experience complications with breast feeding. However, I do not recommend becoming pregnant within the first year of your breast augmentation.

When Should I Have Breast Implants Replaced?

Replacement of breast implants
