Is it too soon to get another procedure?

April 26, 2011 by Dr. Schoenfeld

Question:
I had a facelift ten years ago and lately I have noticed some wrinkling, dimpling and sagging in my upper cheeks and jaw areas. Is it too soon to get another procedure or should I wait a little longer?

Answer:
Ten years is about the lifetime of a facelift. However, by your description it is likely that two separate issues are taking place to your face. Your facial skin is aging and a facelift will certainly help to remove excess skin and elevate the tissue of your face to a more youthful position. What is also taking place is that your face is starting to lose valuable fat that maintains the youthful appearance of the face. If a revision facelift is indicated, I would also suggest autologous fat transplantation to help plump and fill the face. Facelift alone will likely not give you the results that you would like to see from a facelift.

Dr. Schoenfeld fixed my broken nose last St. Patty's Day and I couldn't be happier with the results. I fell on my nose multiple times as a kid and officially broke it 3 years ago, so let's just say my nose was pretty messed up and useless. I finally decided it was time to get it fixed at the beginning of 2017. Dr. Schoenfeld has a great bedside manner, is honest about expectations, and exudes a confidence that immediately made me trust him as a surgeon. The surgical team at River Road Surgery Center was also excellent. They answered all of my questions, made me feel at ease, and pumped me…

5 stars

Thanks again for the most excellent work you did on my nose -- I am just thrilled (yet still recovering.) It has made a world of difference to my breathing and I couldn't be happier with the work you did! I've almost got my smile back. Best wishes -- and thanks so much again to you (and Dawn, too). Sincerely,

5 stars

Thank you so much for not only beautifully repairing my nose, but for rearranging your schedule and going out of your way to help me in my time of need. Your friendly and distinctive assistance is appreciated more than you know. Thank you,
