How is a Facelift Performed?
During a facelift procedure:
- Anesthesia: The surgery begins with the administration of anesthesia, typically general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation, depending on your specific needs.
- Incisions: Dr. Riccio will make discreet incisions, often hidden within the hairline and around the ears, to access the underlying facial tissues.
- Tissue Adjustment: He will then carefully reposition and tighten the underlying facial muscles and tissues to create a firmer foundation.
- Excess Skin Removal: Any excess skin is precisely trimmed away, eliminating wrinkles and sagging.
- Closing Incisions: The incisions are meticulously closed with sutures, ensuring minimal scarring.
- Recovery: You will be closely monitored as you awaken from anesthesia, and any initial discomfort will be managed. Afterward, you will need someone to drive you home.
- Postoperative Care: Dr. Riccio will provide detailed postoperative instructions, including guidance on incision care, managing swelling, and follow-up appointments.
