The Signs of Facial Aging

As we age, gravity, skin laxity, and the natural loss of facial volume cause the skin and tissues to sag, leading to common signs of aging such as:

Sagging Skin

Loose skin contributes to the formation of jowls, giving the face a broader, more rectangular appearance.

Deep Lines and Folds

Deep lines, folds, and dark shadows can leave you with an aged and tired look.

Loss of Youthful Facial Contours

The heart-shaped face associated with youth gradually becomes less defined.

A facelift can effectively treat these signs of aging for an exceptionally natural-looking, youthful, and refreshed appearance.

How Long Will a Facelift Last?

A facelift will take about ten years off your appearance, addressing critical areas of concern such as:

  • Sagging, visible jowls
  • Drooping skin and sagging cheeks
  • Loose, lax skin on the upper neck, or “turkey neck”
  • Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
  • Double chin 
  • Sloping line from chin to neck

Dr. Singh, a highly sought after plastic surgeon in New York City, specializes in advanced facial rejuvenation. He offers his patients a chance to restore a youthful appearance and enjoy the confidence of looking naturally refreshed and healthy.

Is it Time for a Facelift?

You are likely an ideal candidate for a facelift in NYC with Dr. Singh if you:

  • Appear older or more tired than you feel.
  • Find that non-surgical treatments like BOTOX or fillers no longer deliver the desired results.
  • Seek a long-lasting solution that requires minimal upkeep compared to non-surgical options.
  • You look tired and want to restore a fresher, more youthful look.

It’s essential to have realistic expectations if you are considering a facelift. While it can dramatically improve the appearance of your face and neck, the procedure does not address skin texture, prevent future aging, or treat upper face issues, such as sagging eyelids or brows. Dr. Singh often recommends pairing a facelift with other procedures, like an eyelid lift or neck lift, to achieve a more comprehensive level of facial rejuvenation.

What Facelift Procedure is Right for You?

You are unique and may have issues that have led you to consider a facelift. Your treatment will be customized specifically to address the issues of concern. The types of procedures offered by Dr. Singh, a leading NYC facelift surgeon, include the following:

Deep Plane Facelift

Dr. Singh’s deep plane facelift targets the deepest layers of musculature and fascia, providing a natural, long-lasting lift. This approach is particularly effective for lifting sagging cheeks, the jawline, and the neck, with small incisions hidden within the hairline. Dr. Singh’s unique “awake” method, using oral sedation, ensures a safer procedure with quicker recovery times.

Mini-Facelift

Ideal for patients with mild to moderate signs of aging, the mini facelift is less invasive than a full facelift. It focuses on the lower face, addressing jowls and sagging around the jawline and neck, with smaller incisions and a shorter recovery period.

Vertical Facelift

This technique emphasizes the natural angles of the face, particularly the cheeks, to achieve a more youthful and lifted appearance. It requires a deep understanding of facial anatomy to deliver natural-looking results.

SMAS Facelift

For patients with severe skin and tissue drooping, the SMAS facelift provides a more robust lift by manipulating the muscles beneath the skin. This approach offers natural results without the telltale signs of surgery, making it a preferred choice for those with significant sagging.

What is the Recovery After a Facelift?

Recovery from a facelift typically takes about two weeks, though this can vary depending on the type of procedure and individual healing rates. Patients may experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort during this time, which gradually subside. Dr. Singh advises against strenuous activities during the initial recovery period and provides detailed at-home care instructions to ensure the best results. Dr. Singh is deeply involved in the recovery process, providing personalized care and attention at every stage. 

He goes beyond the standard follow-up, personally monitoring each patient’s progress, providing every patient with his personal cell phone number, and making regular check-ins to ensure a smooth and successful recovery. Dr. Singh’s hands-on approach ensures that his patients are supported and confident, knowing that their well-being is his top priority throughout the healing journey. After about a month post-surgery, most patients can safely return to their routines and enjoy their rejuvenated appearance.
