Facelift in Fort Lee, NJ | Edmund Kwan, M.D. - New Jersey Office

Understanding Facelift Surgery

Facelift surgery is a comprehensive anti-aging procedure designed to address multiple signs of facial aging. Dr. Edmund Kwan specializes in precise techniques that tighten skin, reduce wrinkles, and restore a more youthful appearance while maintaining natural facial characteristics.

Benefits of Facelift Surgery

Patients considering facelift surgery may experience improvements in:

• Moderate to severe facial and neck wrinkles
• Loose and lax skin in facial and neck regions
• Jowling and sagging neck area
• Lost volume in lower and mid-facial regions
• Excess fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise

Customized Facelift Techniques

Dr. Kwan offers personalized facelift approaches, including SMAS tightening, which involves lifting both skin and underlying muscle for more comprehensive and long-lasting results. The procedure typically focuses on the lower two-thirds of the face and neck.

Ideal Candidates for Facelift Surgery

Good candidates for facelift surgery are individuals who:

• Are in relatively good overall health
• Have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes
• Do not smoke or can stop smoking before and after the procedure
• Have significant skin laxity not addressable by minimally invasive treatments

Procedure Overview

During facelift surgery, Dr. Kwan makes strategic, discreet incisions near the ears and hairline to minimize visible scarring. The procedure involves removing excess skin, tightening facial muscles, and reshaping tissues to create a more youthful appearance.

Recovery and Results

Most patients experience minimal discomfort and can resume normal activities within ten days. Results typically last seven to ten years, depending on individual factors such as lifestyle, sun exposure, and overall health.

Potential Side Effects

While facelift surgery is generally safe, potential side effects may include temporary bruising, swelling, and rare complications like infection or nerve injury. Dr. Kwan discusses all potential risks during comprehensive pre-surgical consultations.
