face lift (Rhytidectomy)

Facelift surgery is fast becoming one of the most popular procedures requested of plastic surgeons. Dr. Gutierrez's extensive training in facial analysis under world leaders in facial rejuvenation makes him one of a very few surgeons to incorporate traditional approaches with unique techniques to avoid that obvious post-facelift windblown look, repositioned hairline and earlobes. He has perfected a two-layered technique that places tension on the bottom tissue layers allowing a more gentle redraping of the skin thus creatinga more natural, youthful appearance.
Many areas of the face are improved: sagging, loose tissues of the mid-face, deep folds of loose skin at the sides of the nose and mouth, jowls or loss of definition of the jaw line, and excess fat or loose skin causing loss of definition and “hanging” of the tissues in the neck area.

Dr. Gutierrez will discuss your areas of concern during the consultation and demonstrate the degree of correction you may be able to achieve in each area. A facelift does not stop the clock. It simply "resets" it. How long a facelift lasts depends on many factors including the inherent characteristics of your tissues. Also, people tend to age in “spurts” (look at Presidents before and after serving). If you are in, or entering, an aging cycle, your facelift will not last as long as someone who is not in such a cycle.

You'll notice some loosening within a few months following a facelift, but you may never regain the degree of your original aged appearance. On average, patients may request a less extensive tightening procedure in 7-10 years to maintain the best possible appearance.

A Facelift is often combined with other procedures for simultaneous correction of other areas of the face such as the forehead or eyelid regions. This gives you a balanced, more youthful appearance of the entire face.
