Our Patients Say It Best
"A lot less painful than I thought it would be hardly needed the pain meds.I had lower eyes , neck and face done all at the same time. Nurses were amazing with all the after care. Love waking up and not having to wait hours for my eye bags to settle down or looking like I didn't sleep at all.... no more jowls! No more jutting my neck out to minimize that double chin
Soooo happy with results!! Would do it again in a heartbeat!!!
RealSelf 5-Star Review
"Dr. Steven A. Hanna possesses all the traits you want in a plastic surgeon...I underwent a dual plane facelift, neck lift and a facial fat transfer to correct my hollow eyes. I knew by day two that I'd be very pleased with the results, Goodbye marionette lines and droopy neck…hello crisp jawline and elevated infrastructure. Just as amazing, my recovery was unbelievably fast. When those stitches came out a week later, I looked like me…just better.If you're thinking about plastic surgery, Dr. Hanna will guide you through to the best possible version of yourself."

Is a Facelift Right for You?
Ideal candidates often share these characteristics:
Visible Signs of Aging: If you have sagging skin, deep wrinkles, or jowls, a facelift can restore a more youthful appearance.
Good Skin Elasticity: Healthy skin that retains some natural elasticity will yield the best results.
Overall Good Health: Being in good health is crucial for a smooth surgery and recovery process. This includes being a nonsmoker or willing to quit before and after the procedure to ensure optimal healing.
Realistic Expectations: Understanding what a facelift can and cannot achieve is important for satisfaction with the results.

What Are Your Facelift Options?
Our surgeons provide a range of advanced facelift surgery options, each tailored to your unique facial anatomy and goals:
- Full Facelift: A full facelift offers the most significant but natural-looking results. Our surgeons lift both the upper layer of skin and the deeper SMAS layer, which includes the muscles that control facial expressions. This procedure is typically combined with a neck lift to address a double chin, correct vertical neck banding, and tighten lax skin on the neck.
- Mini Facelift: Also known as a limited incision facelift, this technique corrects early signs of aging in the lower face. While the recovery time is typically shorter than that of a full facelift, the level of correction is not as extensive.
- Neck Lift: When the primary concern is neck skin laxity and wrinkling, a neck lift can be performed as a stand-alone procedure. However, most people with loose, sagging neck skin also experience similar aging issues with their facial skin.
During your consultation, your surgeon will assess your needs and goals to determine which procedure is best for you.
What Are the Benefits of a Facelift?
After your facelift or neck lift surgery, you can look forward to:
- A youthful yet natural-looking appearance
- Smoothed wrinkles and fine lines
- Improved facial/neck contours
- Firmer skin
- Long-lasting results
- Enhanced self-confidence

- Neck Lift: Addresses sagging skin and wrinkles on the neck, often performed with a facelift for comprehensive rejuvenation.
- Eyelid Surgery: Restores a youthful look by tightening lax eyelid skin and reducing fat pockets.
- Brow Lift: Repositions a heavy brow, smooths forehead lines, and complements the results of a facelift.
Facelift results often last for 10 years or more, but each person's experience varies. While a facelift can turn back the clock, it doesn't stop the natural aging process. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and following your surgeon's aftercare instructions are important to prolong your results. Sun protection and a consistent skincare regimen using medical-grade products can also help preserve your rejuvenated look.
