Only 6 days after a facelift and chin implant (no eyelid surgery). While men generally have less bruising than women because of their thicker skin this is representative of what we see early on in men and women alike. The swelling is also modest and most notable under the chin (side view). He will be confidently “out and about” in less than another week. We can’t wait to see him at his 6 week visit when all of this is gone!

For the surgeons: Extended SMAS dissection takes longer but you can’t beat the malar fullness and pleasing “ogee curve” most visible on the oblique view.

Skin-only tummy tucks mean the underlying muscles

Skin-only tummy tucks mean the underlying muscles are not tightened, just the excess skin removed. This applies to two groups: young women following massive weight loss to remove hanging skin and post-menopausal women to remove both excess skin and fat. The recovery is so much easier if there is no muscle work. The long scar is a good trade in these instances. Our lovely young patient shown here lost 90 lbs through diet and discipline alone.

For the surgeons: Trial marking at 45 degrees permits making the upper incision at the beginning with confidence, thereby facilitating the procedure.

Our male patients most commonly seek facelifts to remain competitive in the workplace, most notably in the digital industry. This procedure, which included a chin implant, eliminated the downward curve and backward sweep of the face and neck that blurred the distinction between the two. A more pleasing rectilinear configuration has been established with right angles at the chin and middle of the neck where a hidden “Adam’s apple” is revealed.

For the surgeons: TXA in the local has been just as effective in males as females so intravenous use has proven to be entirely optional.

This charcoal pencil drawing of my grandson and hi

This charcoal pencil drawing of my grandson and his “girl friend” took over a year to complete. In retrospect it may have been a bit ambitious due to so much detail in the original image. It’s been a labor of love though, and gratifying to see it finished.

Expand the following images to see the detail. Those sunglasses were fun to do. On to the next!

Our lovely young patient is seeing her new nose and chin for the first time. Such a humbling and thrilling feeling to make this happen for her!

For the surgeons: Either extra-small or small curvilinear chin implant through a 5 mm submental incision works great! Front view lip strain relief just as important a gain.
