men facelift

Facelift surgery is gaining popularity among men in Newport Beach, CA, as more recognize the value of maintaining a refreshed, youthful appearance. Dr. Rob Kessler, a skilled plastic surgeon, offers male facelifts designed to restore a rested look while preserving natural masculinity.

Face lift Surgery

The workplace grows more competitive each year, and while experience is highly valued, appearance can influence perceptions. As people enjoy longer and healthier lives, more men are turning to facial rejuvenation procedures to maintain a refreshed look that reflects their vitality.

Surgical techniques have also improved, making the detectability of these procedures less obvious. Unlike women, men do not have the advantage of altering their hairstyle or wearing makeup to hide poorly placed scars. This is one of the reasons male facelifting requires a more experienced and skilled surgeon.

Why More Men Are Choosing Facelift Surgery

Men pursue facelift surgery for various reasons, from staying competitive in their careers to aligning their appearance with how energetic they feel. A male facelift targets sagging skin, deep wrinkles, and jowls, which can be more prominent in men due to thicker skin and facial structure. In Newport Beach, active lifestyles and sun exposure may further contribute to visible aging.

Facelift surgery aims to restore confidence and provide a refreshed look that remains authentically “you.”

What to Expect During Facelift Surgery?

Depending on the individual, incisions are placed at or within the temporal and occipital hairline. The incision is placed within the contours of the ear to hide the scar and limit detectability. Well-placed incisions closed in the absence of tension yield scarring that is often difficult to see even up close.

Placing facial structures back in their youthful position with an SMAS technique yields natural and durable results. Volume may need to be replaced, which can be done with your own fat, limiting the need to return for fillers. The goal is to have you look just as you did when you were younger and avoid feminizing your face.

A facelift can be combined with several other cosmetic procedures to enhance your results. As mentioned, areas of volume loss can be corrected with fat transfer by taking fat cells from another location in your body, such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks. A browlift or blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) is also commonly combined with a facelift to improve the upper region of the face.

Post-surgery Recovery

The recovery from a facelift is surprisingly easy. All of the skin raised during the procedure is numb immediately. Most people perceive this as the face feeling large and tight but not painful. Pain medications are usually only taken for the first three days. Drains are inserted during surgery and are usually removed on the second day. Sutures will be removed on days 5 and 10.

Medication will be prescribed for pain management, though the discomfort following a facelift is typically minimal. Swelling and bruising should be expected but are usually minimal. Maintaining your head at a ninety-degree angle during the first days after surgery will minimize the chance of wound healing issues. Many patients resume work by 10 to 14 days.

  • 01 What is a facelift?

    A facelift, also known as a rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure designed to improve appearance by eliminating the lax skin, heavy jowls, and sagging neck tissue that comes with age.

  • 02 Who is a good candidate for a facelift?

    The ideal candidate for a Facelift is anyone in generally good health who is frustrated by the loss of skin elasticity that occurs with aging.

  • 03 Where is the facelift procedure performed?

    Dr. Kessler performs surgery at a nearby accredited outpatient Surgery Center or a local accredited hospital. An overnight stay is recommended for the more invasive Facelift procedures to increase a patient’s comfort level.

  • 04 What type of anesthesia is used during a facelift?

    The facelift procedure is performed under general anesthesia.

  • 05 How long does a facelift take?

    Depending on the type of facelift and the extent of correction, the procedure will take four to six hours to complete.

  • 06 When can I return to work after a facelift?

    Generally, patients feel and look well enough to return to work 10-14 days after their Rhytidectomy procedure. Strenuous activities should be postponed for the first four to six weeks.

  • 07 Will there be scarring after my facelift procedure?

    The facelift procedure does result in visible scarring. However, these will be well concealed within the natural hairline, making them almost unnoticeable.

  • 08 What are the risks associated with a facelift?

    At Kessler Cosmetic Surgery, modern facelift techniques prioritize safety and efficiency, offering patients a reliable approach to achieving their aesthetic goals. As with any surgical procedure, there are some risks, such as bleeding, infection, delayed healing, or nerve injury, but these are carefully managed to ensure the best possible outcome.

  • 09 Can I finance my facelift?

    Patients can pay with cash, all major credit cards, or medical financing through CareCredit. At your consultation with Dr. Kessler, the exact cost of your Facelift procedure and all available payment options will be discussed.

Patient Testimonial

Dr. Kessler came recommended to me by my best friend who had a facelift from Dr. Kessler ten years ago. He has been flying in from Dallas for his yearly beauty update. He looks spectacular for sixty with out looking like he has had anything done. Dr Kessler is an extremely skilled plastic surgeon. Who is also honest and wants the best possible outcome for his patient. I walked in wanting a face lift but Dr. Kessler said all I needed were fillers, Ultherapy, and Botox. I love the results I got. I will also be coming to see Dr Kessler for my yearly beauty check. I am so happy to have found a trustworthy surgeon who will keep me looking my best for years to come!
