Facelift in Setauket - East Setauket, NY | Dr. Kenneth Kneessy MD

Understanding Facelift Procedures

Time, gravity, sun exposure, and daily stresses significantly impact facial appearance. Dr. Kenneth Kneessy offers comprehensive facelift procedures that counteract aging signs by tightening muscle, removing fat, and trimming excess skin to restore a youthful look.

Ideal Facelift Candidates

The most suitable candidates for facelift surgery typically:

• Demonstrate early to moderate signs of facial aging
• Maintain skin with reasonable elasticity
• Are in good overall health
• Have realistic aesthetic expectations
• Do not smoke

Facelift Techniques

Dr. Kneessy offers multiple facelift techniques tailored to individual patient needs:

• Traditional Full Facelift
• Mini Facelift
• Facelift Without General Anesthesia
• Neck Lift

Comprehensive Facial Rejuvenation

Facelifts effectively address multiple aging concerns, including midface sagging, deep facial creases, jowl formation, and loose neck skin. The procedure can dramatically improve facial contours and restore a more youthful appearance.

Recovery and Results

Most patients experience initial swelling and bruising that resolves within 3-6 weeks. Many return to normal activities by the third week post-procedure. Results are long-lasting, though the natural aging process continues.

Complementary Procedures

To enhance facelift results, Dr. Kneessy may recommend complementary treatments such as:

• Injectable dermal fillers
• Facial implants
• Skin resurfacing techniques

Potential Risks and Considerations

Like all surgical procedures, facelifts carry potential risks including bleeding, infection, and temporary sensation changes. A comprehensive consultation with Dr. Kneessy will address individual concerns and expected outcomes.
