Understanding Facelift Procedures in Troy

A facelift represents the most comprehensive approach to addressing facial aging, specifically targeting wrinkles, jowls, and skin sagging in the lower face and neck regions. The procedure aims to correct underlying facial aging characteristics without fundamentally changing a patient's essential appearance.

Facelift Technique Overview

Dr. Compton offers multiple facelift approaches tailored to individual patient needs, ranging from minimally invasive to more comprehensive techniques. Modern facelifts focus specifically on the jawline and neck, providing targeted rejuvenation with precise surgical interventions.

Facelift Procedure Levels

  • Basic Skin-Level Lift: Tightens skin around the ear and neck
  • Deep-Plane Facelift: Provides comprehensive lower face and neck rejuvenation
  • Comprehensive Facial Rejuvenation: Combines multiple surgical techniques

Customized Surgical Approach

Dr. Compton evaluates each patient's unique facial structure, skin elasticity, and aesthetic goals to determine the most appropriate facelift technique. The surgical plan considers factors such as age, skin condition, and desired outcome to ensure optimal results.

Surgical Considerations

Patients must disclose complete medical history, including medications, supplements, and any tobacco or nicotine use. These factors significantly impact surgical candidacy and potential complications.

Potential Facelift Combinations

While facelifts can be performed independently, they are often combined with complementary procedures such as neck lifts, eyelid surgery, or chin implants to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

Age Range for Facelift Procedures

Facelift procedures are versatile, with patients ranging from their thirties to eighties. The goal is not to reverse aging completely but to restore a more youthful, refreshed appearance.

Surgical Location

Dr. Compton performs facelift procedures at Royal Oak Beaumont Hospital, West Bloomfield surgery center, or his Troy office, ensuring patient comfort and convenience.

I am one month post op and loving my results. I had a rhinoplasty and chin augmentation done as well as a minor otoplasty. From the moment I called and made my first appointment to my first consultation and every appointment after I have nothing but positive things to say. Everyone is extremely friendly and welcoming. Dr Compton is an amazing surgeon and exceeded all my expectations and gained my full trust. He took his time in my initial consultation and answered all of my questions thoroughly in great detail and honestly spent over an hour with me. The day before my surgery I was very nervous and his team took the time to fit me into their very busy schedule Dr Compton put all of my worries to rest his bedside manner is a 10/10. My surgery was honestly such a breeze they make everything so easy and smooth. The recovery was much easier than I expected I hardly bruised. Many friends of mine who have had rhinoplasty’s from other doctors warned me that I would not like my results in the beginning but even with the swelling from the beginning I absolutely loved my results and am loving so far how everything is coming along. Everything looks so natural which was exactly what I wanted. Thank you Dr Compton, Mandy, Allison, and all the staff you guys are amazing and I will be recommending this office to anyone who is looking to get any cosmetic work especially a rhinoplasty done.

I am approximately three months out from having a brow lift, lower eyelids, vertical vector facelift, and some neck tightening. I researched a lot of doctors prior to seeing Dr. Compton. What interested us most was that he performed the vertical vector facelift. We made an appointment and went to the office and saw Allison, nurse practitioner. We also met with Dr. Compton. (when I speak of we, I mean, my wife and me). When we got in the car and headed home I looked at her and I said this is the person that I want to do my surgery. I underwent the procedure and which was a bit prolonged due to my underlying health issues. Dr. Compton made absolutely the right choice and not attempting to do the procedure in office based on my history. I think it is very important to make sure when you’re looking for a person to do your face that the office clearly understands you as a patient, your underlying medical history and any potential complications that may arise. This office made sure that they clearly understood my underlying medical conditions and even had peer to peer calls with my treating Physicians. Dr. Compton clearly understood my history and any limitations that posed. I personally felt that I was able to describe what I really wanted out of the procedure to Allison and Dr. Compton so that they could consider my expectations and give me feedback as to if it was reality. Dr. Compton made a very good point and stated to me that looking old is better than looking weird. That statement is exactly how I feel and I do not want to look weird. From my standpoint, I do not want to have my face looking funny after surgery. We went into the procedure with a clear understanding of what my expectations were, and I had clear expectations of what they felt would be my results. I think it is very important that they clearly explain that you may have a few lines here and there, you may have some sagging. You may have resulting looks that may need minor touchups and/or modifications. I think the other important thing is if you are having procedures done right now such as Botox to raise your forehead and take wrinkles out you’re going to have to have this post surgery as well. This surgery will not be something that prohibit you from taking care of your skin, not smoking, taking care of yourself, or doing things like Botox. I completed my surgery in December and just went back for the three month evaluation and I could not be more pleased. We have a long-term recovery plan. We have a skin care plan and we have aesthetic procedures that can aid in my recovery and overall goals. Despite a few challenges that I have mentioned above, I would absolutely 100% without reservation have the procedure again and I would 100% without reservation go to see Allison and Dr. Compton. Their office staff is dedicated, knowledgeable and pleased to have you as a patient. They have the office, equipment, aesthetician, and services that can fully service your needs. What I found most valuable is that the office Staff is amazing, Dr. Compton and Allison, you could not ask for better people. Also, Dr. Compton advertises himself as having the eyes of an artist and the hands of a surgeon. I think that could not be more true. A person has to have a God-given talent to do this type of work. He has it. He wants to make you look what is realistically possible so that you do not look like a circus oddity and he will tell you flat out what a procedure may most likely give you as an outcome. If you’re considering a facelift, I would most definitely consider the vertical vector facelift, a consultation with Allison and Dr. Compton and have someone go with you during your appointment so you can bounce what they just said to you off of each other on the way home, because this absolutely without a doubt is a major decision And you want to be 100% confident in your decisions and to make the best choices for your desired surgical outcomes.
