Q: What is a good age to have a facelift?
A: There is no specific age for having a
facelift. The results of a facelift can be subtle or very dramatic depending
on the patients appearance before surgery.
Q:
Are the incisions visible after facelift surgery?
A: No, if done correctly, all of the incisions
associated with facelift surgery can be hidden in normal creases / folds
of the face or in the hairline.
Q: How long before I can
go back to work?
A: Every patient is different.
We will ask you to take it easy for the first 1-2 weeks after surgery
(no bending over, no heavy lifting, no excessive moving of the head and
neck, etc).
Q: How long is the swelling
there?
A: Swelling will be significant
the first couple of weeks. It will gradually subside but the swelling
will take months to completely go away. Dr. Pousti suggests using Arnica
for less bruising and faster recovery.
