Restore a refreshed, naturally youthful appearance with facelift surgery. Andrew L. Weinstein, MD, FACS, uses advanced SMAS facelift techniques and the refined eye of a sculptor to reposition deeper facial tissues rather than simply tightening skin. The result is elegant, balanced facial rejuvenation while preserving your natural character.
Restore Youthful Facial Contours
A facelift is a surgical procedure that restores a more youthful facial appearance by repositioning the deeper SMAS layer, removing excess skin, and refining facial contours. Rather than creating a tight or overdone look, Dr. Weinstein carefully reshapes the underlying facial structures to soften jowls, improve jawline definition, and reduce sagging in the cheeks and lower face while preserving your natural expression and unique features.
What Does a Facelift Treat?
A facelift may help address concerns such as:
- Sagging cheeks and loss of midface volume
- Jowls that soften jawline definition
- Loose skin along the lower face
- Deep folds around the nose and mouth
- Excess skin and laxity beneath the chin
- Loss of youthful facial contours
- Drooping tissues caused by aging
- Poor definition between the jawline and neck
What Are the Benefits of a Facelift?
Restore Youthful Definition
A facelift repositions deeper facial tissues to restore smoother, more defined contours in the cheeks, jawline, and lower face. Rather than simply tightening skin, it creates balanced, natural-looking rejuvenation that reflects your facial anatomy while preserving your unique appearance.
Look Naturally Refreshed
Advanced SMAS facelift techniques lift underlying structures instead of relying on skin tension alone. This approach helps you look rested, vibrant, and youthful without the overly tight or windswept appearance commonly associated with older facelift techniques.
Enjoy Long-Lasting Rejuvenation
Because a facelift addresses the underlying causes of facial aging, the results typically last significantly longer than those of non-surgical treatments alone. You can enjoy renewed facial harmony while continuing to age naturally from a more youthful starting point.
Restore Your Confidence
Looking more like the way you feel can have a meaningful impact on your confidence. By thoughtfully restoring facial balance with an artistic eye, Dr. Weinstein helps you present your best self with authenticity and lasting confidence.
What Happens During a Facelift?
During your facelift, Dr. Weinstein carefully places incisions around the ears and within the hairline to keep scars as discreet as possible. You are then placed under anesthesia while he gently lifts and repositions the underlying SMAS layer, removes excess skin, and refines the contours of your cheeks, jawline, and lower face. After achieving balanced, natural-looking contours, he closes the incisions with fine sutures, allowing you to recover with a refreshed appearance that preserves your unique facial character.
FAQs
Will I Still Look Like Myself After a Facelift?
Yes, that is the goal. Dr. Weinstein believes the best facelift is one that restores, rather than changes, your appearance. Drawing on his background as a sculptor, he carefully repositions facial tissues to enhance natural proportions while preserving your authentic expressions.
What Is Recovery Like After a Facelift?
You can expect temporary swelling, bruising, and a feeling of tightness during the early stages of healing. Most patients feel comfortable returning to many social activities within several weeks, although subtle improvements continue to develop over the following months.
