Facelift Riverside

Wrinkles, jowls and prominent laugh lines... these are the most obvious signs of aging. However, with the aid of today’s technology, all of these can be minimized or even be erased for a period of time. Facelift, otherwise known as "rhytidectomy" in medical terms is one of the most sought after cosmetic surgical procedure in Riverside, California nowadays.

Each and every facelift Riverside procedure is unique. The scope of the cosmetic surgical procedure depends on the location and the extent of the sagginess of the skin. Facelift Riverside procedures are performed on an "outpatient" basis. They are performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia by way of sedation. Basically, the incisions or the cut made that of a facelift Riverside surgical procedure are located within the patient’s hairline on top of the ear, down the ear lobe and ends within the back of the ear. The layers beneath the skin and the muscles on the neck are stretched. The skin is then redraped over the contours of the face (with the excess skin removed).

The recovery period for a facelift Riverside procedure is from ten to fourteen days after the surgical procedure (the patient can go home after the surgery). Generally, the dressings are removed the next day after the operation. The sutures of the cosmetic surgical procedure are usually removed after fourteen (14) days. The patient may feel discomfort on the operated area, although this can be eased with the oral medication provided by the surgeon. The swellings and bruising of the surgery usually minimize from the 10th to the 20th day of the operation. And the outcome of the procedure can be noticed on the 4th to the 6th week after the procedure. The patient will be able to notice further improvements of the results after several months.

Facelift Riverside procedures are one of the most sought after surgical procedure by those who want to have a younger and fresher looking face.
