Facelift

Gravity, sun, stress, aging . . . all take a toll on your face. If you are not happy about deep creases between your nose and mouth, or if your jawline growing slack causing the appearance of jowls, or you have folds and fat deposits appearing around your neck, you should consider a facelift to “turn back the clock.” While it can’t stop the normal aging process, a facelift can improve the most visible signs of aging by removing excess fat, tightening underlying muscles, and redraping the skin of your face and neck. During a consultation with Dr. Orloff, he will advise you whether a facelift alone, or in conjunction with other procedures such as an endoscopic browlift or eyelid surgery, will produce your most desired results.

Based on your individual needs, Dr. Orloff will recommend whether you would benefit from a full or mini-facelift. As the more extensive procedure, the full facelift redefines the jawline and impacts areas from around the mouth on down to include the neck. The full facelift is often appropriate for individuals whose faces have weathered the toll taken by years of smoking.

The mini-facelift combats sagginess in the lower part of the face and upper neck area. If this is recommended over the full facelift, the incisions placed for the procedure are fewer and recovery time is minimized.

Dr. Orloff gained invaluable experience as the sole Fellow in Craniofacial Surgery at UCLA for an intensive year dedicating himself to hands-on training in state-of-the-art facial surgery. In his private practice, Dr. Orloff carried over this policy and utilizes only the latest advancements in equipment and technology in his state-of-the-art practice.
