Segmental Stepwise Facelift

I have no clue as to what “segmental stepwise facelift” is. It may be another marketing ploy by some individual as it is certainly not a procedure that is widely known or published in the literature.

Whatever this marketing term means, I can assure you that it is more terminology than an actual advance in Facelift technique.  Every Facelift is performed in a sequential or "stepwise" fashion, because a Facelift required a series of steps in order to achieve the end result.  Creative marketing does not correlate with better results:  Be careful!

Just today in a medical aesthetics magazine I got in the mail, was advertised, The Stem Cell Lift,  The New Future Lift and the Adjustable Facelift.  I assume the Segmental Stepwise Facelift falls into this category, ie a slick marketing of a routinue facelift, perhaps with some small variations, that by "branding" it makes the procedure seem somehow differant and innovative and implys that it is better.  Do not choose based on a name given to the procedure, instead find a board certified plastic surgeon with an excellant reputation who will fully discuss your problems and what would be done to fix them.  View photos of his/her work and if possible speak with some of the patients.  This is the safest way to proceed and most likely to give you a satisfying result.
