Will Full Face Lift Require General Anesthesia Which May Displace Front Teeth Dental Work? 55 y/o F considering full face lift vs lifestyle lift...the lifestyle lift was a consideration because i worry about displacing/destroying fragile dental work involving two front upper teeth if i have general anesthesia...still in research mode, please advise. Thanks. I do understand that full face lift with general anesthesia allows deeper/greater repair.

A: Lifestyle Facelift

Make sure you are using a board certified plastic surgeon, not someone certified by the "Cosmetic Board'. They are far from the same. But to answer your question, any type of lift can be done with a general or a local with sedation type of anesthesia and I seriously doubt any board certified anesthesiologist will harm your teeth. They work with that problem all the time.

Thoughts About Having Cosmetic Surgery (Face Lift) at a Residency Program? Thoughts About Having Cosmetic Surgery (Face Lift) at a Residency Program?

A: Facelift Surgery At A Residency Program

No black and white answer here. I have seen residents more artistic than practicing surgeons, but the reverse is more likely. And there is no substitute for experience in facelift surgery, which no resident has. There are programs where the attending surgeon may be supervising as many as 4 rooms at a time and others where he is in only one room. I think if you can be assured the attenting doctor is scrubbed and by your side the entire time you are in the OR, then it's probably OK. I doubt you will find that to happen however.

Rhytidectomy i am 19 years old and thin.my cheek skin is very loose and thus gives my face round look instead of chiseled look.i want to know that facelift will be good for me or there are other procedures available.

A: Facelift at Age 19

I can't imagine a 19 year old needing a facelift. Resend your question with good quality front and both side view photos.
