Facial Facelift / Necklift: Case 27 (CID43393296)
Description
A fit, active, healthy 70 year old sought Dr. Graham's skills to reduce her appearance of facial aging. She requested natural, subtle results, but to look the way she felt. To address each of the issues effecting her looks, we suggested a face and neck lift, upper and lower eyelids, and limited use of natural fat. The facelift improved her cheeks, jawline, neck and chin (standard facelift). The belpharoplasty addressed hanging skin of the upper lids and both bags and skin of the lower lids. There was little post-op pain, but swelling takes some time to resolve. Her recovery was typical, with several early visits with Dr. Graham and our estheticians (lymphatic massages), resuming most all activities after 3 weeks. We saw her for months at decreasing intervals as she made nice progress. She looks wonderful and her face matches her vigor and attitude.
