Face Lift Surgery in Port St Lucie at Porcaro Cosmetic Surgery

Face lift surgery, or a rhytidectomy, is designed to restore a more youthful appearance by  removing major wrinkles and sagging skin. The skin begins to wrinkle and sag as a result of the aging process, sun exposure and genetics. Children and young adults have smooth, round faces due to evenly distributed fatty tissues in facial contours. Over time, the skin sags and folds in the chin, jawline and neck become prominent as facial volume is concomitantly lost. Not only does a face lift improve facial appearance but also has a dramatic effect on the neck, enhancing its contour and profile.

The new, extremely popular "Mini" face lift, called various names by those wishing to claim ownership of the procedure, addresses laxity of the lower face & neck. Dr Porcaro regularly performs this procedure under local tumescent anesthesia with intravenous sedation in his level 2 office based surgery facility, registered with the Florida Board of Medicine. This minimally invasive procedure, which takes about an hour, involves making incisions inside the hairline at the temples that extend in front of and within the external ear canals, around the earlobes and behind the ears, ending in the scalp area. Excess skin is removed and sagging muscles and critical support tissues are tightened. The skin is redrapped without tension, resulting in a natural, durable youthful change, without the "wind tunnel" look of some face lift procedures. Fat deposits of the chin and neck can be removed using Tumescent Liposculpture and an eyelid lift (blepharoplaty) can be done at the same time as the Mini face lift, as needed. Face lift incisions are closed with fine sutures, leaving virtually no tell-tale signs of face lift surgery. Recovery is quicker with this procedure, with virtually all patients being fully recovered in 10-14 days.

   You can look years younger and restore your confidence with this low risk, minimally invasive "Mini" in office face lift procedure.
