Facelift without general anesthesia

Phillip Langsdon, MD answers: Best procedure that works like a facelift with minimum fuss?

I am 52 years old and have decided that I want to improve the look of my face. My choices are filler injections or the new signature lift, which takes about 90 minutes. After reading some of the reviews on the injectables, I am a little apprehensive.

I have a wedding to attend in July and I want to look my best. Can someone please let me know about the best procedures that I can do that does not require general anesthesia, with minimal down time and allows me to look like I had a facelift? I am in the Tampa bay area.

There are lots of "fears" about having a Facelift. With the right surgeon you can have a great procedure without a lot of downtime, without looking stretched, and without general anesthesia. Things are done differently by different surgeons and there are a lot of surgeons getting into mini-lifting that have not had formal education with face lifting.

We do the entire range, from "mini lifting" to full face lifting, all under local with twilight sedation. it is easy and it works! You don't have to have a general anesthesia to have a Facelift.
