What are the different options that you provide for facelifts?

May 29, 2011 by Dr. Schoenfeld

Question:
What are the different options that you provide for facelifts? I had always thought that there was one type of facelift and now there seem to be other options.

Answer:
I provide several different options for facelifts and the option that I would choose depends upon the needs of the patient.  If you are relatively young and have issues with sagging jowls and minor neck laxity the I would suggest a mini facelift procedure.  If you are a bit older and have more extensive facial and neck skin laxity I would suggest a full facelift.  I like to perform a sub SMAS facelift as I feel that the results are more dramatic and last longer than a less aggressive facelift approach.  Finally, depending upon the status of your neck, I will perform some type of procedure to either tighten or remove excess muscle of the sagging portion of your neck.  There are other types of facelifts such as deep plane facelifts and SMAS imbrication facelifts and a portion of the facelift that I like to perform may include elements of these other facelift procedures.  During your consultation in my office we will discuss which facelift will give you the best possible long term result while still enabling you to recover quickly.

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,
