A facelift can improve multiple aspects of your appearance to enhance your overall look. For example, a facelift can raise loose skin on the cheeks and reduce excess fat deposits that may create the appearance of weight around the lower jaw and nearby areas. Our Highland Park facelift procedure offers several benefits for individuals seeking a holistic approach to facial rejuvenation:
A vertical plane facelift is a more advanced and deeper-layered facelift technique. It lifts and repositions the deep facial tissues (like the SMAS layer and fat pads) in the vertical direction, meaning against gravity — upward rather than back. The term "plane" refers to the deeper anatomical layer in which the surgeon works, offering more comprehensive rejuvenation.
It’s a technically advanced surgery often performed by facial specialists or plastic surgeons with deep expertise in facial anatomy.
A mini facelift is a less invasive version of a traditional facelift that targets early signs of aging in the lower face and jawline. It involves smaller incisions and focuses on lifting and tightening the skin and underlying tissues with minimal downtime. It's ideal for patients with mild to moderate sagging who want a natural, refreshed look without a full surgical procedure.
A mini facelift is often called a "weekend lift" because of its faster recovery and rejuvenating effect — perfect for someone wanting a refreshed look with minimal disruption.
After a facelift, you go to a recovery room where surgical staff monitors you for complications. You can go home on the day of surgery but need to have a friend or family member drive you home. You might experience tenderness, incision drainage, numbness, bruising, or swelling. Follow Dr. Bloch’s post-surgical instructions. Get plenty of rest with your head elevated while you recover. Take medications as prescribed and apply ice to the treatment area to reduce swelling.
Protect your skin from the sun and keep the incision sites clean. Contact Body By Bloch if you experience worsening pain or signs of infection. Make sure to attend all follow-up appointments to check your healing.
