The Male Facelift

The male facelift is designed to adjust, smooth, and reposition your facial tissues to restore more youthful contours. Dr. Firouz is known for making subtle changes that have a dramatic impact on how you look and feel.

Considerations for a Male Facelift

The male anatomy is unique, and a special approach is required during facelift surgery. Men’s facial muscles and skin are thicker than women’s, and they tend to have heavier jowls along the neck. In addition, if you have a receding hairline, your surgeon will need to take special care to hide the incisions well. All these factors make a male facelift challenging in unique ways. That is why it is so important to work with a board-certified plastic surgeon with many years of experience performing these procedures, like Dr. Firouz.

Your Male Facelift Experience

Prior to surgery, Dr. Firouz will administer general anesthesia to put you to sleep before making the incisions. In most cases, they will be hidden inside the hairline and around the ears. However, there are smaller incision patterns that may be appropriate for earlier signs of facial aging.

Through those openings, Dr. Firouz will adjust your tissue and fatty deposits, strengthen and tighten your skin, and remove excess tissue wherever necessary. If you need to correct jowls, fatty deposits, and excess skin on your neck, Dr. Firouz will address those issues through an additional incision beneath your chin.

Once he has tightened and lifted your facial tissues, Dr. Firouz will close the incisions with absorbable sutures.

Your Recovery

You should be able to return to work and light activities within one to two weeks. Immediately after surgery, Dr. Firouz will fit your face with bandages to minimize swelling. During the first few days of recovery, it is important to rest, limit movement, and give your body the time it needs to heal.

Male FaceliftFAQ

Am I a candidate?

Most of our male facelift patients are in their 40s, 50s, and 60s with fairly firm and elastic skin. This is important because your skin must be elastic enough to conform to your new facial contours. You should also be in good physical and mental health and at a stable weight, as any fluctuations may impact your results.

How long will my results last?

Your facelift results will be very long-lasting. Nothing can stop the natural aging process, but you will always look younger than you would have without the surgery.
