Facelift (Rhytidectomy)

While every patient’s goals are unique, the foundation of a successful facelift is balance—not overcorrection. Dr. Loeb takes a thoughtful, individualized approach to facial rejuvenation, focusing on restoring youthful contours while preserving each person’s natural character and expression.

Factors that may influence outcomes:

‍

• Skin quality and elasticity

• Facial structure and degree of aging

• Realistic expectations

• Overall health and lifestyle habits

• Complementary procedures (such as eyelid lift or neck lift)

What to Expect from Facelift Recovery

‍

Recovery from facelift surgery typically involves 1 to 2 weeks of initial downtime, with swelling and bruising gradually improving over the following weeks. Most patients feel comfortable returning to work and social activities within 2–3 weeks. Full healing and the refinement of results continue over several months as tissues settle naturally. Dr. Loeb provides every patient with a personalized recovery plan and detailed post-operative instructions to ensure a smooth and supportive healing experience.
