I am considering a facelift and necklift. I have been researching various local cosmetic surgery options. I live in Houston. I noticed that a one hour vertical facelift is advertised as giving the same results as a traditional facelift. This will really appealing to me. Is it to good to be true? I am 54 and my skin is in really good shape due to staying out of the sun.
Answer: Facelift Thanks for your question. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is! One hour is not enough time to adequately address the changes of facial aging. The anatomy is complex and the surgery is delicate. There are no short-cuts to great results.Hope this helps in your decision-making process.Dr. Nicolas Hynes, MSc, MD, FRCS(C)Lotus Cosmetic Surgery Centre + Medispa

Answer: One hour facelift Thank you for your question. Your suspicion that these claims are "too good to be true" are certainly correct. A great facelift takes skill, care and time. One hour is not enough time for even the most stilled surgeon to perform a quality facelift and close the incisions with precision. My advice would be to see a few well respected facial plastic or general plastic surgeons who specialize in the face in your area. Let them evaluate you and give you advice about what procedures are likely to give you the result you are hoping for. Only move forward when you feel comfortable with the surgeon and plan. Keep in mind that every face is different and a one-size fits all procedure will not universally yield excellent results. A facelift should be tailored to the individual's anatomy and aging process. All the best!

Answer: Facelift options With something as important as your face I suggest not cutting corners. A one-hour procedure will likely leave you with temporary results and you will ultimately need a "real" lift in short time. I recommend finding an experienced facelift surgeon who will perform a quality lift using documented techniques that provide long-term improvement. Best of luck.

Answer: If it sounds too good to be true... Good morning!Surgical face rejuvenation is a challenging and technically demanding procedure- it takes considerable planning, time, and expertise to get a great result. There area wide variety of companies and surgeons advertising variants of what you describe above- a "one hour facelift"- guaranteeing the same results as a formal facial rejuvenation surgery but can be done on your lunch hour. If reputable surgeons could perform a good facelift in an hour instead of three to five hours- they would. The fact is that they cannot- you cannot do the intricate dissection, elevation, and skin closure in one hour and have a great result. Trying to find a "easy way out" and a shortcut in this type of procedure is going to give you minimum results with maximum disappointment.Bottom line- a quick little mini lift is only going to give you mini results with mini longevity of your result.I hope this helps

Answer: One hour facelift? A one-hour facelift is going to be a variety of a mini lift, which is going to give mini results. It's important to have an idea of what a face and neck lift can accomplish. In our practice, a lower face and neck lift accomplishes tightening loose facial neck skin, tightening loose facial and neck muscles, lifting the jowls, tightening the SMAS, and removing fatty deposits in the neck. The procedure takes approximately 3 hours under general anesthesia as an outpatient surgical procedure. Choose your facelift surgeon very wisely based on extensive experience producing natural results. For many examples, please see the video and the link below
