Doctor Recommendations for a Facelift in NY Area

After researching this issue I am leaning towards the deep plane face lift procedure, primarily because I have not viewed any before and after photos that show a substantial improvement from the Endoscopic cheek lift.

I would like more options, however, it's hard to discern through internet advertisements.

Deep Plane Facelift vs. Mid-Face Lift (cheek lift)

There are many different techniques that have been demonstrated to produce an effective, beautiful, and long lasting result. I have been trained in and use both the deep plane and mid-face lift. Both are great techniques when performed on properly selected patients. I vary my technique based on patient anatomy, desires, and downtime.

Facelift in New York city

"only one I found in the NY area that comes across as "The Real Deal"" -Now that is laughable!  New York City has HUNDREDS of talented Plastic surgeons many of which do great Facelift procedures. More than Beverly Hills several times over. I would love to help you but as a former New Yorker with many Plastic Surgery friends I would offend many by not listing them in one long list. Many of these surgeons do not overtly advertise or market themselves and rely... more

I am not a big fan of the deep plane facelit because I htink that it leaves patients faces too wide.  I prefer a high SMAS facelift for most patients.  The key is to lift the soft tissue and the redrape the skin in a fashion ot not leave the tell-tale signs of a facelift.  Good luck.

You have seen an excellent surgeon. If you want second opinions, go to the website of the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery ,located in Alexandria VA , to find other surgeons in NY. Review those surgeon's websites before scheduling additional consultations.
