Understanding Facelift Surgery in Stockton

Gravity, sun exposure, stress, and environmental factors contribute to visible signs of facial aging. Facelift surgery improves the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, loose neck skin, and jowls by tightening muscles, removing excess fat, and redraping the skin.

Types of Facelift Techniques

Traditional Facelift

A traditional facelift addresses aging in the middle and lower facial regions. This surgical approach removes excess skin and fat while tightening underlying muscle structures. Incisions are strategically placed from the hairline at the temples, extending around and behind the ears.

Mid-Facelift Procedure

When time and gravity cause cheek tissues to descend, a mid-facelift restores youthful cheek positioning. This specialized technique minimizes visible scarring while effectively repositioning facial tissues.

High SMAS Facelift

Treats deeper facial tissue layers beyond skin surface
Targets the tissue layer between muscles and skin
Redistributes sagging soft tissue evenly
Addresses jowling and skin laxity

Deep Plane Facelift

A comprehensive facial rejuvenation technique that lifts and repositions deeper facial tissues. This method provides more extensive correction by addressing muscles and ligaments beneath the SMAS layer.

Ideal Candidates for Facelift Surgery

Suitable candidates typically demonstrate:

Mild to moderate facial skin sagging
Remaining skin elasticity
Good overall health
Realistic expectations for surgical outcomes

Recovery and Results

Facelift surgery is an outpatient procedure with manageable recovery. Patients can expect temporary bruising and swelling, with most individuals returning to normal activities within 7-10 days. Results can last up to 10 years, providing a natural, rejuvenated appearance.
