OUR PRACTICE
The Facelift Procedure: Dr. Sedgh’s Advanced Approach
Dr. Sedgh’s facelifts utilize minimally invasive techniques tailored to meet the needs of each patient. He may recommend a SMAS lift, deep plane lift, or MACS lift based on the level of correction required. Facelifts are performed with local or general anesthesia, and Dr. Sedgh places incisions carefully along the hairline and around the ear to minimize scarring.
Procedure Steps:
- Incision Placement: Incisions are strategically placed along the hairline and around the ear for discreet, virtually invisible scars.
- Tissue Repositioning: Dr. Sedgh tightens and repositions underlying muscles and tissues to lift sagging skin and improve facial contours.
- Excess Skin Removal: Any redundant skin is carefully removed to prevent an overdone look, and sutures are meticulously placed for a natural appearance.
The entire procedure takes approximately 3 to 4 hours and may be extended if combined with other facial procedures like a neck lift or eyelid surgery.
HIDDEN INCISIONS
Incision lines are typically concealed within the hairline and in the outline of the face and ear. Dr. Sedgh’s patients can attest to results that are long-lasting and natural-looking, even without touch-ups—the kind of effect one can only get from a seasoned doctor with over a decade of surgical experience under his belt.
Once the adjustments satisfy the desired outcome, the skin is restored over the facial tissues, followed by the strategic placement of sutures to close incisions.
With Dr. Sedgh’s expert execution, you can expect minimal to invisible scarring, and a smoother, tighter, and beautifully contoured face. Traditional facelift procedures typically last three to four hours, unless combined with other cosmetic procedures such as a neck lift or eyelid surgery, which can extend the process to as long as six hours.
