What Can a Facelift Do For Me?

  • Lifts sagging skin: Repositions drooping skin in the cheeks, jawline, and neck to restore the tissues to a natural, youthful position.
  • Smooth deep wrinkles and folds: Reduces the appearance of nasolabial folds (smile lines), marionette lines, and jowls.
  • Restores facial volume: Lifts and repositions facial tissues to restore lost volume without the need for fillers.
  • Define the jawline: Creates an elegant, defined, crisp jawline by addressing sagging skin and excess fat in the lower face.
  • Natural-looking results: Enhances your natural beauty without a “pulled” or overdone appearance.

What is the Procedure?

A facelift, or “rhytidectomy,” is a surgical procedure designed to address sagging skin, deep wrinkles, and loss of facial volume. During your facelift surgery in Long Island, Dr. Alemi will make discrete incisions, typically hidden along the hairline and around the natural contours of the ears. These incisions allow access to the underlying facial muscles and tissues. The next step involves lifting and repositioning the soft tissues of the face and neck to restore youthful contours. Excess skin is meticulously removed, and the incisions are precisely closed to minimize visible scarring.

Facelift Surgery from a Leading Facial Plastic Surgeon in Long Island

Dr. Alemi’s techniques can address the deeper layers of the face, such as the SMAS (Superficial Musculo-Aponeurotic System) or a deep plane facelift, which releases key facial ligaments and allows for a more natural, long-lasting result. Additional procedures, such as fat transfer or facial liposuction, may be combined with the facelift to enhance overall results.

The procedure typically takes three to four hours, depending on the complexity, and is performed under intravenous sedation rather than general anesthesia. Post-operatively, patients are given detailed instructions for a smooth recovery, and follow-up visits with Dr. Alemi ensure optimal healing and results.
