Facelift Before & After Case 27

This 49 year old existing patient of Dr. Parker’s requested facial rejuvenation. Specifically, the patient was bothered by the loss of the “heart shaped” appearance of her face, early jowling and the loss of her clean jaw line. She pointed out to Dr. Parker the asymmetry in her face and is aware how common this is to varying degrees in all of us. She had liposuction of her neck done several years ago, with good results. She has had laser facial resurfacing performed and from time to time, had fillers injected but has now stopped that. She is a very knowledgeable patient, and knows what she wants and doesn’t want. It is important to her to look natural and not “operated upon”. She would rather look “underdone” than “overdone”. The patient and Dr. Parker carefully reviewed all options in evolving a treatment plan. Subsequently, she underwent a face and neck lift procedure by Dr. Parker with some modifications made to improve upon her pre-existing facial asymmetry. The patient was amazed at how quickly she recovered without any pain as well as very little bruising and swelling. She is absolutely thrilled with her natural looking results. She told Dr. Parker, “you did it just right!”.
