My skin and facial muscles have started to sag. I don't really have wrinkles, but I do have sever Marionette lines. My cheeks are sunken and my eyes look hollow. I've heard and talked to doctors about several lasers and fillers, but realized that at the end the tab would cost as much as a facelift, considering that I'd have to go back every year for more fillers and more laser treatments. They say though, that I'm too young for a Facelift. Any advice?
40 is not too young for a Facelift as long as you have the indications for surgery, I will not just operate on anyone, however, if you have the classical indications of facial aging and a surgical procedure would give you the best results in comparison to any other non surgical options I would give you that option. I do not use age as a predetermining factor for surgery but determine if anatomically the patient is ready for a surgical procedure.
Thinking about a facelift, but concerned about taking time off work. When can I go in public without looking like a freak (or like I just had facelift surgery!)?
Believe it or not, a Facelift is not typically a painful procedures. Most of my patients do quite well and take a minimal amount of pain medication following surgery. The biggest form of recovery following a Facelift is the bruising and swelling. If you are able to work from home or have a job that allows you to work while still having signs of bruising and swelling you can be back as soon as one week. If your job does not afford you these options than you may consider taking off two to even three weeks for bruising and swelling to resolve.
So many people would love to have this procedure done but they just don't have these kinds of funds. Is there a real reason why it has to be so so very expensive??? I guess you could say it is only for the rich people, and again the heck with the low income and poor people.
Good day Aquarius!
Without sounding too much like a car salesman, how much is your face worth to you? The anatomy and complexities of the facial anatomy are quite significant, and it takes many years to understand the relationships of the tissues, the architecture of the anatomy, and how to arrive a good result safely.
The time, energy, and experience do NOT come easily for the plastic surgeon, so consequently, the expense of using his or her services in this area is usually some of the highest.
Despite what you may hear and be led to believe, there is NO shortcut to becoming a plastic surgeon. Board Certification in Plastic Surgery is a multi year and ongoing process, for which there is no substitute.
The attempt by some to lower the expense by performing lesser procedures, and often times with less effort and training on their part, is a fool's bargain. Both the patient and the physician are unlikely to be happy with the result of attempting a shortcut.
Go to the real deal, spend the money that your face is worth, and you'll lessen the odds of regret and problems.
Best of luck to you!
