Facelift with Neck Lift Surgery in Houston, TX

How is a Facelift Performed?

The facelift incision begins above the ear, along the hairline and transitions along the front of the ear, usually hidden inside the ear, and then curves behind the earlobe and into the neck hairline. This allows for the removal of sagging skin of the face and neck and to tighten the facial muscles.  A facelift with neck lift removes the jowls and corrects the sagging neck. Once healed, the scar is barely noticeable. In addition, a small incision within the chin crease is used to tighten the neck muscles.

What Is A Mini Facelift?

Neck Lift Surgery in Houston, TX

What Is A Neck Lift?

A neck lift removes the excess hanging skin and tightens the neck muscles. Although liposuction of the neck can be performed to rejuvenate the neck, it does not remove sagging skin and does not allow the neck muscles to be tightened, However, liposuction of the neck can be an excellent option for patients with minimal hanging neck skin with mostly fat in the neck. 

Neck lift surgery is either performed along with a facelift or alone using an incision behind the earlobe and neck hairline usually with an incision within the chin crease.

How Long Is The Recovery From Neck Lift Surgery?

Recovery from neck lift surgery is approximately 7 days to 10 days. Dr Kronowitz does not use drains with neck lift surgery. Instead, he uses a compression garment that results in a beautiful neck contour.

What Is Eyelid Surgery?

Brow Lift Surgery in Houston, TX

What Is A Brow Lift?

A brow lift is performed to raise the position of the eyebrows. A brow lift is also known as a forehead lift. In some patients, eyebrows will fall down into the eyes with aging. A brow lift uses small incisions in the scalp to insert a camera to release the eyebrows so they can be lifted back into their normal position. Eyelid surgery does not raise the position of the eyebrows, so often brow lift surgery is combined with eyelid surgery. Commonly, brow lift and eyelid surgery are performed along with a facelift and neck lift surgery.

How Long Is The Recovery From Brow Lift Surgery?

Recovery from brow lift surgery is usually 7 days to 10 days.

Fat Transfer to the Face Surgery in Houston, TX

Depending on the needs of the patient, the fat can be injected into the temples, forehead, eyebrows, under eyes, nose, cheeks, chin or jawline. The injected fat makes you look younger by adding volume to the face and the stem cells located within the injected fat will improve the appearance of your skin.

How Long Is The Recovery From Fat Injections To Face?

Dr. Kronowitz performs fat injections to the face by itself or along with any other surgical procedures, like facelift and neck lift. Fat injections do not require incision on the face, but the needles or cannulas used to inject the fat can cause bruising that will typically resolve within 14 days.
