Modified Face Lifts (S-Lifts)
Turn back the hands of time with our most elite cosmetic procedure! The S-Lift, a modified face-lift, will lift one's sagging cheeks, smooth out the jawline, tighten the neck, and reduce the neck banding. This is achieved by lifting and tightening the fibrous tissue and bands (SMAS) which envelop the underlying facial muscles and neck platysma muscles along with trimming the excess skin. Incisions are carefully placed, hidden in the hairline and well concealed in front of and behind the ears. A small incision is also made under the chin. A head wrap is worn for three days immediately after the procedure and sutures are removed in 7 days. The S-lift is done under twilight sedation and tumescent anesthesia, which reduce the risks and the cost of the procedure. There will be post operative bruising and swelling along with minimal pain for approximately 1-2 weeks. Healing is a gradual process that can take weeks to months. Although results are seen right away, it can take up to six months to see the final result. Please call our office today to schedule a consultation with Dr. Lashgari to determine whether you are a candidate for this amazing procedure.
