Although many people think that cosmetic surgeries, such as facelifts, are only for females, many men can benefit from these procedures as well. Men may want to look younger, feel better about themselves overall and feel more confident in public. A facelift is a great way to get rid of deep lines and furrows on the face and to lift sagging skin on the mid to lower face and neck. An Orange County male facelift works in much the same way as any facelift works with the patient undergoing an invasive surgery to remove extra skin and to pull sagging skin tighter.
Dr. Tavoussi's Focus With Orange County Facelift Procedures
Whenever possible, Dr. Tavoussi will try to perform an Orange County male facelift with as few incisions as possible. Not only will this aid in healing and will decrease potential side effects, but also it will improve the aesthetics of the face and decrease scarring. However, facelift scars are typically hidden around the hairline anyway. In this way, they can be virtually impossible to see unless one is looking very closely. Dr. Tavoussi’s goal is to give men the face of their dreams despite their age without any visible scarring.
Men who are good candidates for Orange County male facelifts are those who have deep lines around their noses or mouths, who have sagging jowls or who have horizontal bands of tissue around their necks. Those who also have deep lines across their foreheads or around their eyes may benefit from an add-on procedure, such as a brow lift, which can often be done at the same time. Men should have realistic expectations of this procedure and should realize its limitations. Men who have tried other less invasive techniques, such as topical treatments or dermal fillers, without adequate success may find a facelift to be an excellent option. Candidates should be generally healthy nonsmokers.
What to Know About Male Facelift Procedures
The Orange County male facelift is done under general anesthesia at the Pacifica Outpatient Surgery Center. Men will arrive at the center on the day of surgery but will be able to go back home that very evening. Patients should be prepared to take several days off work to recover and should also be committed to following post-operative discharge instructions carefully. This will ensure that the incisions heal as well as possible and that there are no complications. Dr. Tavoussi will also provide more information at a consultation and at the follow-up appointment.
