Hi Lj68! Congratulations on your recent surgeries. Timing between procedures is important to ensure safety and proper healing. Your body needs time to recover, for swelling to settle, and for your tissues to regain strength. In most healthy patients, surgeons typically recommend waiting at least 3–6 months before undergoing another major procedure like a facelift. This allows your body to heal fully, lowers the risk of complications, and helps ensure the best aesthetic results.Of course, the exact timing depends on your overall health, how well you’re healing, and the extent of your planned facelift. A follow-up consultation with your plastic surgeon will help determine the safest schedule tailored to your situation.

Thank you for your question. Nearly two years after surgery, your scars are considered mature, so what you are seeing now is likely a close representation of their long-term appearance without additional treatment. While well-placed facelift scars are typically concealed within natural creases...
Do the dental graft + implant first, then wait at least 4–6 months before a deep plane facelift.That gives the bone time to heal and lowers the risk of issues.Always good to have your dentist and surgeon coordinate timing.
