A facelift is a transformative surgical procedure designed to address visible signs of facial and neck aging. Our skin loses elasticity as we age, and facial tissues tend to sag, resulting in wrinkles, jowls, and a loss of youthful definition. At Northern Jersey Plastic Surgery Center, under the expert guidance of our Board Certified (ABPS), founder, Dr. Troy Callahan, chief of plastic urgery at Englewood Health, we specialize in facelift procedures to help you achieve timeless, classic beauty.

Facelift Overview

What is a facelift?

A facelift is a surgical procedure that targets sagging facial skin, deep creases, and loose facial muscles. It involves tightening and repositioning the underlying tissues, removing excess skin, and smoothing out wrinkles to restore a more youthful and vibrant facial contour. By addressing multiple areas of concern, a facelift in Englewood can provide comprehensive facial rejuvenation, restoring classic, timeless beauty.

Who Is a good candidate for a facelift in Englewood?

A facelift is best suited for individuals who are beginning to notice more advanced signs of facial aging and are ready for a more comprehensive, long-lasting solution. While every patient is unique, you may be a strong candidate if you:

Feel that your appearance no longer reflects how youthful or energetic you feel
Notice heaviness along the jawline or a loss of definition in your facial contours
Have developed deeper folds or areas of laxity that are not responsive to non-surgical treatments
Want a refined, natural-looking rejuvenation rather than subtle or temporary improvements
Are in good overall health and able to undergo a surgical procedure

Equally important is having a clear vision of your goals and a desire for results that enhance—not change—your natural features. During your consultation, Dr. Callahan will take the time to understand your concerns, evaluate your facial structure, and determine whether a facelift or a combination of procedures like fat grafting, BOTOX and rhinoplasty, will best achieve the balanced, timeless result you’re seeking.

What is the facelift procedure?

The surgical process begins with administering anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. Dr. Callahan will make discreet incisions in strategic locations to minimize visible scarring, usually within the hairline and around the ears.

Through these incisions, he will:

Lift and reposition the underlying facial tissues
Tighten the muscles
Remove excess skin
Redrape the skin to restore your look without appearing overdone or pulled

The incisions are then meticulously closed, and you will receive post-operative instructions to aid your recovery.

Recovery After a facelift

After a facelift, you can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which can be managed with pain medication during the early stages of recovery. Dr. Troy Callahan will provide detailed post-operative instructions to help you have an eventful, fast recovery. You may be required to wear a compression garment or bandages to minimize swelling and support the healing process.

Gradually, as your body heals, you will begin to see the transformative results of your facelift. Your facial contours will appear more defined, wrinkles and sagging skin will be resolved, and your overall appearance will be refreshed and rejuvenated. While individual recovery experiences may vary, most patients can resume their normal activities within a few weeks, with improvements continuing to refine over time.

How long do facelift results typically last?

Facelift results are long-lasting, often providing visible improvement for 10 years or more. While the natural aging process continues, your face will continue to look more youthful than if surgery had never been performed. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and proper skin care can help extend your results.

Will a facelift address aging in the neck as well?

In many cases, yes. Facelift surgery often includes rejuvenation of the lower face and jawline and may be combined with a neck lift to address loose skin or banding beneath the chin. Dr. Callahan will evaluate your anatomy during consultation to determine whether a neck-focused approach should be included for optimal balance.

Can a facelift be combined with other facial procedures?

Absolutely. Many patients choose to combine a facelift with procedures such as eyelid surgery, brow lift, or skin resurfacing to achieve more comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Combining procedures can enhance overall results while allowing for a single recovery period.

Will my facelift scars be noticeable?

Facelift incisions are carefully placed within the hairline and natural contours around the ears to keep scars discreet and well hidden. Over time, these incisions typically fade significantly and are difficult to detect. Dr. Callahan’s meticulous technique prioritizes both beautiful results and minimal visible scarring.

Are there any risks associated with a facelift?

As with any surgical procedure, a facelift carries some risks, though complications are uncommon when performed by an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Callahan. Potential risks may include bleeding, infection, temporary or prolonged swelling, scarring, or changes in skin sensation. In rare cases, nerve injury or delayed healing can occur. Every precaution is taken to minimize these risks, and you will receive detailed pre- and post-operative instructions to support a safe, smooth recovery.

How is anesthesia used during a facelift procedure?

A facelift is performed under anesthesia to ensure you remain comfortable and pain-free throughout the entire surgical process. The type of anesthesia used will be determined based on your individual needs and Dr. Callahan’s recommendation.

What should I expect during my facelift consultation?

During your consultation, Dr. Callahan will evaluate your facial structure, discuss your concerns, and review your aesthetic goals. He will also determine whether a facelift alone or a combination of procedures is best suited to achieve your desired outcome.

How soon will I see visible results after surgery?

You will begin to notice improvements as swelling and bruising subside over the first few weeks. While early changes are visible fairly quickly, final refined results continue to improve as healing progresses over several months.

What can I do to prepare for a facelift procedure?

Preparation may include following pre-operative instructions such as avoiding certain medications, stopping smoking, and arranging for post-surgery support at home. Dr. Callahan will provide detailed guidance tailored to your case.

Will a facelift make me look different or just more refreshed?

The goal of a facelift is to enhance your natural features rather than change your appearance. Dr. Callahan focuses on creating a refreshed, youthful look that maintains your individuality without appearing overdone.
