Get Ready For A Quick Recuperation Post Facelift Surgery: The Plastic Surgery Institute of California

Facelift surgery procedure involves the removal of the excess fat, the tightening of muscles of the face and neck area and the removal of sagging skin.

The facelift procedure is performed on an outpatient basis under a local or a general anesthesia. Incisions are made within the hairline above the ear, extending down around the lobe and ending in or below the hairline behind the ear.

After the facelift surgery, the face may look strange and the movements may become stiff for some days.

For a quick recuperation for the facelift surgery, the plastic surgery patients should avoid any form of strenuous activities such as lifting heavy objects, heavy housework, exercise and physical intercourse etc until the swelling has subsided for about four to six weeks.

Walking and mild stretching activities can be resumed immediately after the face lift surgery to prevent blood clotting.Following the post operative care instructions given by the facial plastic surgeon is of utmost importance to get the best results for the facelift procedure.

At the Plastic Surgery Institute of California, our board certified plastic surgeons personally provide detailed information about the post operative care to our facelift patients.
