Often times doctors will brand their procedures, to help gain exposure. A one-stitch lift sounds like a marketing campaign. I would request to see before and after images, and make sure the images are several months to a year after the procedure. Chances are if you have moderate laxity in your jawline and neck then one stitch won't get the job done.&nbsp; While this procedure may sound like a nice, easy procedure, it might not be right for you. Take your time, and see several different physicians for a consult. You want to feel comfortable with the physician that is going to be taking care of your face.&nbsp;

I have heard of a &quot;one-stitch&quot; lift. Is there really such a thing? Apparently a doctor does a stitch, that lifts the skin a bit, up along the hairline. Is this a good procedure?

What is a "One-stitch Lift"?

Facelift

It is important to remember to be patient! You just had surgery and you need to give your face time to heal. It can take anywhere from 3 to 4 months for all of the swelling to subside. While you may have already gone back to work, most of the initial swelling has likely gone down. There can still be swelling, and it can be 3 - 4 months before that swelling is completely gone.&nbsp;

recently had a lower <a href='/reviews/facelift'>facelift</a>, <a href='/Neck-lift/reviews'>necklift</a>, fat injections in nasafolds. 6 weeks postop still swollen and numb. Is this normal, and if so how, long before i am completely healed?

How Long Should Swelling and Numbness Last After a Facelift?

Sometimes doctors brand their own procedures. Don't get confused by all these marketing terms. They really don't mean anything.&nbsp; A good facelift is one that tightens and supports the SMAS and Platysma muscles in the neck. Sometimes these procedures are branded to entice people to do a procedure because it sounds easy and less invasive. No matter how great these procedures sound, remember that any surgical procedure has a downtime. If you are going to undergo a facelift or other surgical procedure, you should expect to get a significant improvement and lasting results. Don't look for short cuts here - they won't pay off in the long run. A good facelift may only take an hour or two, but the key is to learn about what is actually being done to your face, not how long it takes. You only have one face - take care of it!

How effective is this treatment and what does it involve...is it surgery? &nbsp;Is this as good as a "traditional" facelift?

What is a One-hour Facelift?

With a rhinoplasty, it is important to have patience! What you are seeing as crooked could just be swelling and time will tell. Remember, it can take up to a year for all the swelling in the nose to dissipate. Straightening a crooked nose is difficult and getting a perfectly straight nose is not alway possible. A straighter nose is generally the goal.&nbsp; Give it time to heal and let the swelling go down. You'll have a better idea as to what the results will truly look like in a few months.&nbsp;

I had <a href="/Rhinoplasty/Nose-job/reviews">Rhinoplasty</a> to &quot;straighten&quot; my nose. I just got my cast off and it is clearly not straight. If a nose looks crooked when the cast is removed one week after rhinoplasty, does that necessarily mean that the nose will be crooked when the swelling is gone? Or could it just mean that the swelling is uneven? I just pray that when the swelling finally goes away that it will reveal a straighter nose than what I am seeing now.

Crooked Nose or Uneven Swelling After Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty

A "Tip" rhinoplasty is no different from other types of rhinoplasty. This type of rhinoplasty is focused to just treat the tip region of the nose, and not the bridge or other parts of the nose. In general, a tip rhinoplasty helps to: <ul><li>Reduces a bulbous tip</li><li>Reshape a boxy tip</li><li>Any other modifications that need to be done to improve or refine the tip </li></ul>Typically it is best to do it as an open approach.&nbsp;

How is a tip rhinoplasty different from other rhinoplasties?
