Does what you see in the mirror match the level of energy and youthfulness you feel? If not, you’re probably a good facelift candidate. Women and men considering facelift surgery are bothered by sagging cheeks, jowls, and wrinkled necks. They’re typically between ages 40 and 70—although patients of any age can get a facelift if they’re in good health—and they have realistic expectations about what facial plastic surgery can accomplish.
This combination facelift/neck lift procedure is also appropriate for patients who have lost significant weight.
The Timeless Face facelift technique greatly minimizes any risk of complications and leads to a faster recovery. Developed by dual board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Jonathan Weiler, this surgery uses only a local anesthetic with sedation instead of a general anesthetic.
During the procedure, your surgeon makes incisions concealed around the ears and in the natural crease below the chin. After gently elevating the skin, the surgeon lifts and tightens the tissue and muscle layer to a more youthful position and repositions or removes pockets of fat. Your surgeon then re-drapes the skin without pulling it too tight and trims the excess. The procedure concludes with the surgeon closing the incisions and applying protective dressings.

How much does a facelift cost in Lafayette?
At Weiler Plastic Surgery, the cost of a facelift ranges from $11,500 to $18,200, depending on the surgery's specifics and individual patient factors. The cost of facelift surgery in Lafayette depends on several factors, including the plastic surgeon's experience, the extent of the procedure, and other considerations.
How long is recovery after a facelift?
The physical healing after a facelift usually takes about 7 to 10 days. Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the recovery and often manage any pain with over-the-counter medications. The social recovery—when you’ll feel confident being out in public—usually takes about 2 weeks. If you’re planning to attend a significant social event, such as a wedding, you should schedule surgery at least 6 weeks before the date to ensure you’re completely healed.
Does a facelift improve the appearance around the eyes?
Facelift surgery addresses the lower two-thirds of the face, including the neck. Many facelift patients benefit from combining other procedures, such as upper and lower eyelid surgery and laser skin resurfacing, to complete their facial rejuvenation.
