What is Our Surgical Technique?
If you want to turn back the hands of time with a facelift, here are a few things to expect. Some facelifts rejuvenate the upper portion of the face while others focus on the middle and lower. Moreover, some techniques are a bit more invasive and intricate than others. It's very common for some individuals to have a brow lift, forehead lift, or BOTOX® and fillers to complement and enhance their results. Some of the more common facelift techniques include:
- Full Facelift
Considered the gold standard, the full facelift usually makes an incision along the hairline, extending down to the temples, stopping near the base of the ears. The deeper layer of facial muscles is gently stretched and securely tightened to produce a lifted outcome, which diminishes excessive lines and wrinkles. This facelift is reserved for individuals who show signs of aggressive aging. During a full facelift, many procedures may be used, including an eyelid lift to enhance the eyes or a neck lift for the lower region. - Lower Facelift (Neck Lift)
This particular facelift addresses the neck region, chin, and sometimes the jowls. Facial fat grafting is often combined with a facelift to augment facial atrophy.
Are you considering rejuvenating your appearance with a neck lift? During a neck lift procedure, general anesthesia is used. An incision is placed around your ears while another one might also be created beneath your chin. If isolated areas of fat exist, fat removal with liposuction would be the first step in the surgical process. Following that, any sagging or hanging skin will be trimmed away and the remaining skin will be pulled tight. This technique is conducted until the desired contour, shape, and smoothness have been achieved. Even though sutures are used, scars should not be visible since they were placed beneath your chin.

If I could give more than 5 stars i absolutely would! I have had nothing but amazing experiences each and every time. Both dr Appel and his office ladies are so kind and helpful. I’ve had 2 surgeries so far with Dr Appel and the last one was at his new office surgery suites and I must say it was wonderful, of course no one loves surgery but his office was so peaceful and clean and just calming everyone was so patient and kind and no one rushed and the nurse in the operating room was so sweet and kind as well as the ladies who were in the recovery room with me. This was the most amazing experience and nothing at all like having a surgery in a hospital. Also no matter what time both Dr Appel and his staff are always there to help or answer any questions or concerns and Dr Appel even made time to call and check on me that night after surgery a few times just to make sure I was okay. He also takes his time with his patients and really listens to them, I struggle with horrible body dysmorphia and he always makes me feel heard and does everything in his power to help his patients and he is honest as well. His work is amazing and I’ve never felt more confident in my own skin. I can say Dr Appel and his office ladies are stuck with me I’m a patient for life and I can’t say enough amazing things about them! ❤️
