Revision Facelift

Introduction

Introduction to Revision Facelift

When performed successfully, facelift surgery can completely rejuvenate your face, neck, and jawline, creating a significantly more youthful appearance. However, a facelift is a complex procedure, and there’s always a chance that you won’t be satisfied with the results. For example, you may feel like the improvements to your facial appearance aren’t significant enough, or the final results may simply not look the way you’d envisioned and hoped. If you are in the greater Phoenix area and find yourself in this position, you may want to consider a revision facelift in Scottsdale, AZ.

What to Expect on the Day of Revision Facelift Surgery

If you’re interested in a revision facelift in Phoenix, you can begin the process by scheduling a private consultation with Dr. Craft. You’ll be able to discuss with the doctor why you’re unhappy with your previous facelift results and the specific changes you’d like to make. He’ll listen closely to your aesthetic goals for the procedure and use that information to create an effective treatment plan that will achieve your desired facial appearance.

Your revision facelift procedure will most likely be performed as an outpatient procedure. To begin, you’ll be administered either local anesthesia or IV anesthesia. Dr. Craft will then make small incisions, the locations of which were discussed during your consultation. He will then make adjustments to your facial skin, tissue, and/or muscles depending on the details of your treatment plan. The specifics of each revision facelift can vary depending on what exactly the patient wants to achieve with the procedure. Once Dr. Craft has successfully adjusted and secured your skin and tissue, he will close the incisions with sutures and apply bandages.

A revision facelift can take anywhere from two to five hours, depending on the extent of the surgery. You’ll need to remain for monitoring for a few hours after the procedure. After that, you can return home, but someone else will need to drive you.

Revision Facelift Recovery

Following your revision facelift, Dr. Craft will give you thorough instructions for the recovery process to ensure that you heal properly and achieve the best possible results. You’ll likely experience swelling, bruising, and soreness, but those symptoms should gradually subside on their own. You can speed up this process by using a cold compress and sleeping with your head elevated.

You’ll need to rest for one to two weeks after your surgery before returning to your normal routine. During this time, it is recommended to take regular light walks to keep your blood flowing. You should also wait at least four to six weeks before you participate in strenuous physical activity.
