What Is a Facelift?

A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure to reverse the visible signs of facial and neck aging. It involves lifting and tightening the underlying facial muscles and tissues while removing excess skin to create a smoother, more youthful appearance. This comprehensive approach addresses sagging skin, deep creases, and jowls, contributing to a refreshed and rejuvenated facial profile. Our facelift in Kansas City at Ascentist Plastic Surgery is tailored to each individual's unique anatomy and desired outcomes, ensuring a harmonious and natural-looking result.

Is a Facelift Right for Me?

If you are unhappy with your appearance due to signs of aging, such as sagging skin, deep creases, or a loss of facial volume, a facelift at Ascentist Plastic Surgery might be the ideal solution. The ideal candidate for this procedure typically desires to address these specific concerns, seeking a comprehensive rejuvenation of the face and neck. If you yearn for a more youthful and revitalized appearance, a facelift could be the transformative solution you're looking for. However, to determine the appropriateness of this procedure for your unique needs, we recommend a personalized consultation with our expert team at Ascentist Plastic Surgery.

What to Expect: The Facelift Procedure

On the day of your facelift surgery at Ascentist Plastic Surgery, you will be administered anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. To access the underlying facial tissues, we strategically place incisions, typically concealed within the hairline and around the ears. The underlying muscles are tightened, and excess skin is carefully removed to address sagging and restore a youthful appearance. The procedure duration varies based on the extent of correction needed but generally takes several hours. As for discomfort, patients typically experience minimal pain during the procedure due to the effects of anesthesia. At Ascentist, we utilize advanced techniques and our expertise in facial anatomy to achieve natural-looking results tailored to your unique features.

Facelift Recovery

Following your facelift in Kansas City, you may experience swelling and bruising. It's common for patients to take about one to two weeks off from work and social activities to allow the initial healing process. While discomfort is minimal, pain can be effectively managed with prescribed medications. You'll be advised to keep your head elevated to reduce swelling and follow specific postoperative care instructions provided by our team. Initial results will become apparent as swelling subsides, but the full impact of your facelift will unfold gradually over the following weeks. We will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and ensure your healing as expected. Our dedicated team at Ascentist Plastic Surgery is committed to providing ongoing support during your recovery journey, ensuring the best possible outcome for your facelift procedure. Don't hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns as you heal.
