Facelift surgery is one of today’s most commonly performed cosmetic procedures. If you’ve been thinking about getting a facelift, it is essential to have a full understanding of the recovery process.

When a facelift is done, it is a serious surgical procedure. Many people also take that time – since they are going to have surgery and have to take time to recover anyway – to get other face-related procedures done.

You may be candidate for a facelift (rhytidectomy) if you have experienced a loss of skin elasticity and muscle tone of the face and neck. A facelift may also be desirable if you have the appearance of jowls and deep creases between the base of the nose and the corners of the mouth, and developed facial and neck wrinkles.

The face is the primary aesthetic part of our body. When engaged in conversation or day to day interactions, we always look at the other persons face. It is the one characteristic of our body which distinguishes us from one another.

Facial features with its many nuances and details give us our individuality and sense of self. As a facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Vartanian has specialized knowledge of the face – from skin to the underlying tissues and facial bones.
