Undergoing cosmetic surgery can be a transformative experience, but the path to achieving the desired results requires meticulous preparation and post-operative care. Proper preparation is crucial to ensuring a successful outcome and minimizing the risk of complications. One of the key aspects of preparation involves setting realistic expectations and understanding the procedure thoroughly. Patients should take the time to research their chosen surgery, consult with experienced surgeons, and discuss potential risks and benefits. This helps in making informed decisions and fosters a sense of confidence and readiness.

Lifting a face is an art. If you pull the skin too much it can stretch back over time and cause white unsightly scars. If you pull the skin in the wrong direction it can cause pleating and irregular folds that don’t look natural. If you don’t put multiple level of sutures and tighten the underlying structure such as the muscle and SMAS everything will unravel over a short period of time and the result is ruined.
If you have unsightly scars from face and neck lift, body lifts and more we can put a comprehensive plan together to improve the scars without cutting surgery.

Category : Facelift / Tuliplift
Tuesday, April 2. 2019
Many patients and physicians are quite surprised to hear that a cutting / surgical facelift can be performed completely under local anesthesia. I have been practicing Dermatology and Cosmetic Surgery since 1999. During this time I have performed hundreds of face, neck, eyelid, and body surgeries under local anesthesia. Mild sedation with oral valium and an injection of a pain killer (such as Demerol ) is all that is ever needed.
I have developed a procedure that involves the removal of excess skin AND tightening of the muscle (fascia and SMAS plication) that can be performed under local anesthesia. Some patients decide against having a facelift because of the risks associated with general anesthesia. Our trademarked Tuliplift procedure is performed without general anesthesia.
Here are the steps involved:
The skin is prepped in a sterile fashion in our operating room.
A dilute solutioon of numbing called "Klein Solution" is injected into the neck and face are
Excess fat is gently suctioned by hand (not a machine)
excess skin is marked off and removed from in front of the ears and behind the ears
SMAS / facial Muscle is tightened using permanent and dissolvable sutures
Skin is gently re-draped and sutured with dissolvable and semi-permanent sutures
sutures are removed 7-10 days later
2 weeks later the scars are reduced using Mixto fraction resurfacing
cost $15000-$25000

Occasionally Doctors go over board and put too much filler or the wrong type of fillers into the lips or face.
Most fillers can be safely removed.
Hyaluronic acid fillers can be removed with small injetions of Kenelog.
If kenelog doesn't work "Hyaluronidase" can be judiciously injected to remove most or all of the filler.
To avoid scarring and infections look for a board certified Dermatologist or Plastic Surgeron
Cost $500-$750
