For ultimate privacy and comfort, Aesthetx has a fully accredited surgical facility onsite, which is where your facelift in San Jose will be performed. This surgical suite is equipped with the most cutting-edge technology, including voice-activated devices to help streamline your surgical experience. Likewise, the surgeons at Aesthetx only work with board-certified anesthesiologists, highly trained technicians, and registered nurses who specifically specialize in plastic surgery treatment and care. After your facelift surgery is complete, you will have the space and privacy to recover while receiving undivided medical attention.

Patients can expect the results of their facelift to last for years to come. The surgeons at Aesthetx lift the deeper tissues of the face during surgery, which produces longer-lasting results that also look more natural. You can help extend the life of your results by wearing sun protection and by living a healthy lifestyle. You can also regularly undergo non-invasive treatments like dermal fillers or BOTOX® injections to help maintain a youthful look.

During your facelift surgery, your incisions will be made in areas that are concealed, like the natural creases and contours of the face. In most cases, your incisions will heal beautifully and any resultant scar will be either minimal or virtually imperceptible.

A liquid facelift is a procedure that uses a combination of BOTOX® injections and dermal fillers to subtly lift and rejuvenate the face. While this procedure cannot replace a surgical facelift, many San Jose patients opt for injectables when they only have mild signs of aging or if they feel they are not yet ready to undergo surgery.

During your consultation, you and your Aesthetx surgeon will discuss a recovery plan for your facelift procedure. The surgery will only take a few hours to complete, depending on which combination of procedures is chosen and whether it requires general anesthesia. While it can take a few months to see the final results (due to swelling), you will still see an immediate improvement after surgery. In terms of recovery, most patients can return to their regular activities within a couple weeks. But for best results, it’s essential that you abstain from strenuous activity during your initial recovery period. Because bruising and soreness is a common part of recovery, using ice packs or pain medication can help ease any discomfort you might experience. For optimal comfort, Aesthetx also has special cooling masks for patients. During recovery, many patients follow up for ultrasound treatments to enhance tightening in the neck, and Aesthetx will provide you with other medical skin care options as the face continues to heal.
