Aging is a fact of life that no one can escape. Sun damage, gravity, and the loss of collagen affect us all. However, the right plastic surgeon can perform miracles when it comes to facial rejuvenation, and Dr. Jason Diamond is committed to helping women and men achieve a younger-looking appearance with his specialized Diamond Facial Rejuvenation. This combination procedure often includes facelift surgery as a vital component.

How Does Facelift Surgery Work?

Medically known as rhytidectomy, a facelift is a surgical procedure designed to reverse the signs of aging on the face and neck. The Diamond Facial Rejuvenation process can restore a more youthful and refreshed appearance by addressing sagging skin, deep wrinkles, and other age-related concerns.

Loose skin, fat deposits, and weakened tissues often cause the face to sag, especially along the jawline and into the neck. Facelift surgery lifts and tightens the underlying tissues of the face to reduce sagging, and excess fat deposits can be removed or redistributed if necessary.

Neck lift surgery is typically included with a facelift to address neck banding and wrinkles. Dr. Diamond can combine your facelift with other Diamond Facial Rejuvenation techniques, like eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty), a brow lift, lip augmentation procedures, and more, for comprehensive results.

What are the Benefits of Facelift Surgery?

A More Youthful Appearance

The primary goal of a facelift is to restore a youthful and rejuvenated look by reducing sagging skin, wrinkles, and jowls.

Diamond Facial Rejuvenation with facelift surgery turns back the hands of time to help patients look as young as they feel. Since Dr. Diamond tailors every facial rejuvenation procedure to the patient, you can ensure he will use the correct techniques for your needs.

Eliminate or Reduce Fine Lines and Wrinkles

Wrinkles and fine lines are some of the leading contributors to an aged appearance, and they can appear on almost any area of the face, especially in the midface and from the nose to the corners of the mouth (nasolabial folds).

Facelift surgery reduces these pesky furrows by correcting underlying depressions that allow the skin to fold and smooth wrinkled skin.

Tighter Skin & Restored Volume

Loose skin and hollowed areas of the face contribute to the aged look of facial skin.

Diamond Facial Rejuvenation surgery corrects sagging while manipulating fat and tissue under the skin to add volume to the cheek area and reveal tighter, firmer skin.

Long-Lasting, Natural Results

The Diamond Facial Rejuvenation facelift technique produces natural-looking and long-lasting results, avoiding the “pulled” or overly tight appearance associated with older facelift approaches.

While the aging process continues, the results of a facelift are long-lasting and can provide a more youthful appearance for years.

What Can I Expect Before, During, and After My Facelift?

Dr. Diamond will explain the procedure during your initial, in-depth consultation. He will ask about your medical history and any medications you are taking and evaluate the condition of your facial structure and skin. After listening to your concerns and goals, Dr. Diamond will present you with a customized surgical plan to help you achieve your desired results. This may include various techniques to create a balanced and harmonious look.

The procedure itself begins with the administration of general anesthesia and includes the following:

Incision Placement

Incisions are carefully placed in discreet locations, often within the hairline and around the ears, to minimize visible scarring.

Tissue Repositioning

Dr. Diamond lifts and repositions the underlying facial tissues, tightening the muscles and creating more youthful contours.

Excess Skin Removal

Excess skin is trimmed away, and the remaining skin is redraped over the recontoured facial tissues for a smoother, younger-looking appearance.

Closing the Incisions

The incisions are closed with sutures, and dressings or bandages are applied to protect the surgical area.

Addressing Your Concerns About Facelift Surgery

Facelift Recovery

After a facelift, you can expect swelling, bruising, and discomfort. It’s essential to follow Dr. Diamond’s instructions for a successful recovery, which may include the following:

  • Resting is crucial during the initial recovery period. Avoid strenuous activities and wear your compression garments as directed to help reduce swelling and support the healing process.
  • Take prescribed pain medications and antibiotics as directed to help manage discomfort and prevent infections.
  • Attend scheduled follow-up appointments so Dr. Diamond can monitor your progress and address any concerns.

Facelift Results

The results of the Diamond Facial Rejuvenation facelift look natural and can last ten years or more. However, no technique can stop the aging process.

High-quality skin care products and periodic non-surgical treatments, like laser treatments and specialized Diamond Facials, will help you maintain your results for as long as possible.


Facelift Scarring

Dr. Diamond takes great care to reduce the visibility of facelift scars, although some discreet scarring is inevitable.

Facelift scars typically fade and become less noticeable over time.

Facelift FAQ

How much does facelift surgery cost?

Cost depends on many factors, such as the case’s complexity, duration, location, and surgeon’s expertise. An in-person consultation with Dr. Diamond at his Beverly Hills office is needed for him to provide an accurate cost estimate.

How will I know which facelift technique is right for me?

During your initial consultation with Dr. Diamond, he evaluates your facial condition and considers your individual circumstances to determine the technique to provide you with the best results.

Why is choosing a doctor who specializes in facial plastic surgery so important for my facelift procedure?

It is difficult to be a master of every type of surgery, and specializing in one area allows the doctor to understand all aspects of that particular area and provide the best results. A surgeon who is neither experienced nor extremely knowledgeable about the structures of the face may not be able to provide the most natural-looking results or balance all of the patient’s facial features.

As a Beverly Hills facelift expert, Dr. Diamond has extensive experience performing a variety of techniques for facelift surgery, from basic to advanced. He has the knowledge to determine the best method for a particular patient and how to execute it to achieve ideal, youthful, natural-looking results.

How long after surgery will it take to see my facelift results?

Swelling generally dissipates over the first few months to reveal the final results of your surgery. Incision lines may take up to six months to fully heal.

How long will the results of my facelift last?

The youthful results of facelift surgery are long lasting, though your face will continue to age naturally after the procedure. A healthy lifestyle and protecting your face from the sun will help preserve the results of your surgery and minimize future signs of aging.
