Our patient is shown here only two weeks after surgery. There is mild residual swelling and bruising which is a typical look at this time interval. Besides eyelid surgery she had a SMAS/deep plane cheek lift and muscle tightening in the neck. There was no “deep neck” surgery or salivary gland removal necessary. Good skin quality and bone structure are always an asset, as was the case here. She is thrilled so far and so are we!
We appreciate our patient allowing us to share these images.

Welcome back to the Sam & Meg series! It’s easy to look like a genius on social media doing facelifts on 45 year olds. The true need in that age group is very rare indeed. Facelifts are a big commitment and are not done for preventive purposes. Don’t jump the gun and use them up prematurely. #faceliftsurgery #faceliftbeforeandafter #facialrejuvenation
Complex cases like this require a wealth of experience and an uncompromising mindset. The clock does not matter in these cases, regardless of how it may set the day back. Patients like this have one shot to get it right. #breastsurgery #plasticsurgery #repair
Facial rejuvenation must be an all encompassing plan in order to achieve a harmonious result. In this case a small chin implant improves the length of the neck line from the side while making the plane of face even from top to bottom. The effect on the front view is negligible except for more balanced lighting between the cheekbones and chin. Treating the upper eyelids establishes a clean look to compliment the new neck and jawline without changing eye shape in any way. Lifting the cheek SMAS layer separately allows maximum tightening in a vertical direction to erase the jowls and restore volume while the overlying skin is shifted more obliquely backward. The upper part of the cheek incision should disappear straight up into the scalp and not be positioned below and in front of the sideburn where it is visible. Results should always look natural, devoid of surgical fingerprints. #faceliftsurgery #blepharoplasty #facerejuvenation
