Ideal Male Facelift Candidates

This can be determined through a medical examination at an initial consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon. You must have realistic expectations for the surgery and understand the potential risks.

Male Facelift Procedure

Male facelift surgery is an outpatient cosmetic procedure performed under local or general anesthesia. Incisions are typically made around the hairline and the front of the ears by a board certified plastic surgeon. Extra skin is removed, and muscles and tissues are repositioned to provide greater contour and definition. You may resume normal activities within a week or two after surgery. Male facelift surgery can be combined with other cosmetic procedures to enhance your appearance.

The recovery time for a male facelift will vary depending on the number of cosmetic procedures that were performed during surgery. You may experience swelling and bruising for a few weeks. Ice packs and pain medications can help relieve any discomfort. You should be able to resume normal activities within a few weeks.
