I am planning to have a facelift within the next few months. I want to lose approximately 15 pounds. Should I lose the weight before my facelift, would it make any difference?
Answer: Weight loss doesn't always show on one's face I have added a link that might be helpful...Hi. Thanks for sharing your photo with your question. If you feel that previous 15 lb weightloss impacts the appearance of your face, then yes, wait to have your surgery. If weight gain and loss do not show much on your face in general, then you are less likely to impact your surgical results. Remember that you won't be permitted to exercise for several weeks after surgery, so it may be better to reach your goal weight before-you will feel better overall. Best wishes,

Answer: Reach Your Goal Weight Before Surgery If a patient is in the midst of a weight loss, I typically recommend that we don't move forward until that patient is at a comfortable weight. Although a fluctuation of a few pounds isn't likely to significantly affect the appearance of your face, a 15-pound weight loss could leave you with loose skin and diminished results. To be on the safe side, lose the weight beforehand and be sure that you can maintain the loss before going through with your facelift.

Answer: Move Forward With Your Weight-Loss Plans I suggest reaching a weight you're satisfied with before undergoing a facelift, especially if your face tends to accumulate fat. It may not make that much of a difference, but I believe it's worth avoiding the potential disappointment of having a facelift and then seeing the results compromised if you lose weight after the procedure. By losing weight first, your facial plastic surgeon will be able to create the best possible surgical plan, which may include using fillers to restore volume in certain areas of the face.

Answer: Losing Weight Before Facelift Surgery if you are planning on losing the weight and are committed to doing so, it is best to lose the weight before your facelift surgery. Skinnier faces can actually make the face look older. This may alter what is done during the surgery, especially if you are having fat transfer as well.

Answer: Yes If you are planning on loosing the weight, it is best to do it before. Weight loss after a facelift surgery may result in skin excess which would detract from your results. Best wishes, Dr. T.
