Patient 49

Patient is a 52-year-old female who has noticed significant facial aging during the last 5 years, especially after menopause. She is a long term “sun-worshiper” and a previous smoker who dislikes her jowls and neck laxity along with her heavy brow and eyes. She is an exercise fanatic and her lack of body fat makes her face appear especially gaunt. Her skin quality has drastically changed for the worse, and as her skin elasticity has diminished she needs to wear more makeup. She wants to appear younger and more attractive and recapture the “spark” her face used to have, and identified with.

Patient 50

Patient is a 62-year-old female who is extremely active with much time spent outside enjoying sports. She had a facelift 15 years ago, and was concerned she looked pulled after her first surgery albeit with a rapid recovery.

Notice the youthful voluptuous and glow this patient has from the addition of micro fat transfer to the procedure. Of note is the notion that her original facelift with stretched appearance but rapid recovery was most likely a “skin” facelift without the benefits of contemporary SMAS facelift that do not depend upon skin tightness for the desired effect. This results in a longer lasting and much more natural appearing facelift.
