Face & Neck Lift
Reveal a More Youthful You
Aging is a natural part of life, but that doesn't mean your appearance has to reflect it. With a face and neck lift, you can restore a refreshed, youthful look without the dreaded "overdone" appearance. As gravity, sun exposure, and the stresses of daily life take their toll, deep creases, slackened jawlines, and loose neck folds can emerge. Dr. Yau uses advanced techniques to sculpt and lift, reversing these signs of aging while preserving your natural beauty.
Whether you're experiencing sagging, deep wrinkles, or hollowness, Dr. Yau customizes every face and neck lift to meet your specific needs, creating a harmonious balance in your features. By tightening muscles, removing excess skin, and redistributing fat where needed, this procedure can take years off your appearance, giving you a refreshed look that mirrors how you feel on the inside. For many, the results can make them look 10 to 15 years younger.
The Face Lift
Procedure
Performed as an outpatient procedure at a private surgical facility or hospital, Dr. Yau begins by making discreet incisions in the temples, around the ears, and possibly under the chin. The incisions are carefully placed within natural folds or the hairline to minimize visibility. Depending on the individual, the surgery may involve simply tightening the skin or lifting and repositioning the deeper facial muscles to restore facial contours. Fat is sculpted and redistributed to enhance balance, and excess skin is removed for a smooth finish. A small drainage tube is typically placed and left for 1 to 2 days after surgery.
Recovery After a
Face and Neck Lift
After surgery, patients can return home the same day and will follow up with Dr. Yau within a few days to remove dressings and the drainage tube. Swelling, bruising, and a sensation of tightness are normal and usually resolve significantly within the first 10 to 14 days. Most patients return to work and social activities by 3 weeks, with continued improvement over the next 6 months. Scars will gradually fade, becoming less noticeable over time, leaving you with natural, youthful results.
