What is Revision Facelift surgery?

facelift male philadelphia

Revision facelift surgery refers to a facelift procedure that is performed on a patient with history of prior facelift. A patient may be a candidate for revision facelift if they are seeking corrective surgery to improve a new or persistent deformity after fully healing from recent surgery or repeat surgery several years after an initial facelift for additional facial rejuvenation. Although facelift surgery delivers permanent results, the surgical results may only last for several years out and then start to fade since the face and neck continue to age over time. Revision facelift surgery is typically much more challenging compared to primary facelift given that the facial anatomy is altered with scar tissue present. The risks of bleeding and poor healing as well as needed surgical time may be higher with revision surgery.

Dr. Ho is extensively experienced in revision facelift, drawing patients from various areas of Philadelphia and the Main Line as well as from all over Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York. She is available for consultation with all patients with history of previous facelift and neck lift surgery and will devote thorough evaluation and discussion with each patient to determine whether they may benefit from revision facelift.

Facelift: Who is an Ideal Candidate?

Who is an ideal candidate for a facelift? Patients who feel they have laxity of the facial skin and deeper structures may benefit from facelift surgery. This procedure definitively restores facial and jawline contour with permanent rejuvenation results!

Facelift: What is Expected with Surgery?

Facelift surgery is performed typically with a neck lift to achieve the best rejuvenation results. The incisions are well-hidden, as they are placed along skin creases and within the hairline. During surgery, the skin is first elevated. The SMAS plane is then entered via a deep plane approach, and the deeper tissues are released and lifted. The excess skin is trimmed as the last step.

What can facelift surgery treat?

What can facelift surgery treat? Several aspects of facial aging including:

  • Skin laxity 
  • Facial wrinkles 
  • Sagging cheeks 
  • Jowling 
  • Nasolabial folds 
  • Marionette lines 
  • Ill-defined jawline

Turn back the clock and boost your confidence with the transformative effects of facelift surgery!

Revision Facelift Before and After Vidoes

This kind 45 year-old female patient presented originally for chin liposuction consultation, bothered by the fullness under her chin. I instead recommended a definitive deep plane facelift and neck lift for the best facial and neck rejuvenation and contouring results. She already looks amazing at three months out in these before/after photos. Final outcome is seen at six to twelve months after surgery. We are so thrilled with her results.

This wonderful male patient in his 60s came to me for surgical consultation, bothered by his aging neck. We pursued a deep plane facelift and deep neck lift and are thrilled with his beautiful, natural results. This video displays his surgical outcome one year later. Male facelift patients with shorter hair can have undetectable scars if they are placed along natural creases and curves around the ears and heal favorably.

This beautiful female patient in her 50s came to me for surgical consultation, interested in facelift and neck lift for facial and neck rejuvenation as well as facial and jawline contouring. We pursued a deep plane facelift and deep neck lift where skin, fat, muscle, and gland tissue needed to be removed to achieve her surgical outcome. I am grateful for our surgeon physician relationship and we are so thrilled with her beautiful, natural results.

What type of patient is the ideal candidate for Revision Facelift?
The ideal surgical patient for revision facelift is a healthy non-smoking individual who has no remarkable medical or surgical history, does not take blood-thinning medications, and demonstrates strong bony facial features, normal hyoid position, and good skin elasticity. They should demonstrate new or persistent facial deformities from recent surgery or recurrent facial aging issues years out from prior surgery and should be at minimum 6-12 months well-healed from prior surgery. Good candidates for revision facelift need to demonstrate healthy facial skin and realistic expectations regarding revision surgery goals and outcome and should be committed to long term follow-up to ensure the best surgical results.
