Excess, sagging skin on the neck, often called “turkey neck,” can lead to self-consciousness. A facelift can significantly improve the appearance of the neck and facial area, giving you a more youthful and rejuvenated look.

What is a Facelift?

Dr. Stein performs over 100 facelifts each year to address sagging skin and wrinkles. With a facelift, you can expect a revitalized appearance, making you look years younger.

How Does a Facelift Work?

To ensure your comfort, general anesthesia will be administered. Dr. Stein makes small incisions around the ear or hairline to lift and remove excess skin while also tightening the underlying muscles, providing a smoother, more youthful appearance. His approach minimizes both downtime and visible scarring.

Add a Neck Lift for Best Results!

For those seeking an improved neck appearance, Dr. Stein can perform a neck lift simultaneously, sculpting the neck and reducing sagging for a comprehensive rejuvenation.

What is Facelift Recovery Like?

During the first few days, you may experience swelling and discomfort. Dr. Stein recommends two weeks of rest from work and intense activities to ensure optimal recovery. Additionally, a special diet is advised to prevent strain on your face during the healing period.

What Results Can I Expect from a Facelift?

Results will gradually appear over six months, with a noticeable reduction in wrinkles and a more youthful look in your neck and face. A combined facelift and neck lift offer enhanced rejuvenation, leaving you looking naturally refreshed.

Am I a Good Candidate for a Facelift?

Individuals concerned about neck sagging or “turkey neck” may benefit from a facelift combined with a neck lift. Ideal candidates are non-smokers, as smoking can prolong the healing process.
