A facelift can help you turn back the clock and restore a more youthful appearance. Your facelift procedure can achieve comprehensive rejuvenation results throughout the face and neck regions, helping you look and feel your best. While many non-surgical facial rejuvenation options can help you temporarily reverse the signs of aging, none of these solutions can achieve the customized, long-lasting results provided by a facelift. Many of Dr. Lee’s facelift patients find that they look 10-15 years younger after their procedure.

Ideal Facelift Candidates

You are most likely a good facelift candidate if you:

  • Are in good overall health
  • Have realistic expectations for the outcome of your procedure
  • Prefer highly customized, long-lasting results instead of the temporary outcome provided by nonsurgical facial rejuvenation options
  • Experience one or more of the signs of facial aging discussed above
  • Don’t smoke or are willing to quit before surgery and throughout the recovery period

Types of Facelifts Used by Dr. Lee

Dr. Lee uses several different techniques for his facelift in Newport Beach, including:

  • Full facelift – This technique provides the most comprehensive facial rejuvenation results, addressing the middle and lower regions of your face as well as any signs of aging in the neck. 
  • Mid-facelift – This technique addresses signs of aging in the central face region, including your cheeks. 
  • Mini facelift – This technique won’t deliver as comprehensive results as a full facelift. It is a great option for individuals who are just starting to develop the early signs of facial aging and don’t require a full facelift to achieve their goals.

What Can a Facelift Address?

One of the most significant benefits of a facelift in Newport Beach is its ability to help you reverse a wide range of facial aging signs. Your procedure can address:

  • Marionette lines (lines extending from the corners of your mouth to your chin)
  • Sagging facial skin and muscles
  • Deep creases across the face
  • Nasolabial folds
  • Sagging in the middle portion of your face
  • Jowls
  • Fallen fat and tissue
  • Hollows underneath the eyes
  • Banding in the neck region
  • The appearance of a double chin
  • Deep facial folds near the mouth

Dr. Lee’s goal is to create a natural, younger-looking appearance. To achieve this natural look, he makes it a point to avoid having facial skin pulled too tight. This ensures you retain your unique, beautiful appearance. You’ll simply look like a younger version of yourself.
