Face Lift
A facelift in New York is often the most effective means of improving the appearance of sagging skin on the neck and face. During face lift procedures performed at our private plastic surgery facility in Westchester County, New York, incisions are placed discreetly in your hairline and follow the natural contours of your ears. Incision lines are designed to be easily concealed by your hair, makeup, and in the natural folds of the skin.

What's New
At Cosmetic Surgery Associates of New York, a "mini face lift" may be a good choice for some of our younger clients and can effectively reduce or eliminate early signs of aging while restoring the taut and toned curvature of the neck and jaw. A face lift can also be combined with BOTOX® Cosmetic as well as injectable fillers to provide a more comprehensive rejuvenation. For male patients, a minimal-incision neck lift is a great solution to a sagging, heavy neck.
The CSANY Difference
A face lift procedure offers the pinnacle in facial rejuvenation and is one of the most sought-after facial plastic surgery procedures we perform. At Cosmetic Surgery Associates of New York, we pride ourselves on creating dramatic results while maintaining a completely natural look for our patients. For optimal and lasting results, our surgeons focus on tightening the deeper layers of facial tissue and muscle.
Procedure Overview
At our practice in Westchester County, New York, our facelift specialists utilize the latest facial plastic surgery techniques to lift and reposition the deep layers of tissue as well as the skin above. By tightening and toning more than just the superficial facial tissues, our surgeons are able to restore youth to the face while creating an elegant, streamlined neck and jaw line that removes years from the overall appearance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who should consider a face lift?
There is no specific age when a person should start to consider this procedure, but most of our face lift patients are anywhere from their 40's to 70's. Candidacy is largely dependent on the individual and how much loose or sagging skin is present. Those who experience sagging in the face and neck area who wish to refresh their appearance may benefit from the procedure. It is important that candidates have realistic expectations of what a face lift can and cannot achieve.
What is recovery like?
While recovery differs for individuals, in general, we tell our patients that regular activities and work can be resumed within 1 to 2 weeks following surgery. Working out and strenuous activity is generally allowed after about 2 to 3 weeks, depending on how extensive of a lift you've received.
How long will the results last?
Because the face always continues to age, the results of a face lift will not be permanent. Oftentimes, the results of a face lift procedure can last upwards of 10 years. While the results will not last forever, typically patients feel that after a subsequent amount of time after their procedure, they look better than their pre-operative appearance.
