Facelift

A facelift, also known as a rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure designed to address signs of facial aging, such as sagging skin, wrinkles, and jowls. Dr. Riccio has a wealth of experience in facial rejuvenation procedures and employs advanced techniques to ensure natural-looking results.  He has artfully performed numerous facelift surgeries, helping patients achieve stunning and natural-looking results.  

How is a Facelift Performed?

During a facelift procedure:

     
  1. Anesthesia: The surgery begins with the administration of anesthesia, typically general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation, depending on your specific needs.
  2.  
  3. Incisions: Dr. Riccio will make discreet incisions, often hidden within the hairline and around the ears, to access the underlying facial tissues.
  4.  
  5. Tissue Adjustment: He will then carefully reposition and tighten the underlying facial muscles and tissues to create a firmer foundation.
  6.  
  7. Excess Skin Removal: Any excess skin is precisely trimmed away, eliminating wrinkles and sagging.
  8.  
  9. Closing Incisions: The incisions are meticulously closed with sutures, ensuring minimal scarring.
  10.  
  11. Recovery: You will be closely monitored as you awaken from anesthesia, and any initial discomfort will be managed. Afterward, you will need someone to drive you home.
  12.  
  13. Postoperative Care: Dr. Riccio will provide detailed postoperative instructions, including guidance on incision care, managing swelling, and follow-up appointments.
