Featured Procedure

Facelift

Before Facelift After Facelift

A facelift is an outpatient plastic surgery procedure performed by a surgeon that can remove unwanted wrinkles, fat and signs of aging. During a facelift, the surgeon typically will make an incision on the patient's forehead and/or neck. The incisions are small and most skilled surgeons are able to hide them within hair or natural areas of the face.

Both women and men alike can benefit from a facelift. Not only will this procedure create a younger more fresh look on the patient, but it can also boost the patient's inner confidence. 

While we will never be able to stop the aging process, we can certainly take away the signs of it through a facelift surgery. A facelift is a wonderful procedure due to the swift recovery time, that can be spent in comfort of the patient's own home.

In today's high tech world, peer pressure among kids and teens is ever present, and more intense than ever before, especially with the fear of cyber bullying. While Dr. Schwartz generally discourages teens and parents from having face altering surgery in response to such pressures, otoplasty remains one procedure that is still generally accepted and recommended by the medical community for young children prior to entering school. This simple procedure to avoid embarrassment at a young age remains a mainstay for parents and children.


This handsome boy shown below is a good illustration of this. Having had some unpleasant experiences in his first school year, his parents were eager to make this year better. As shown in his post op photos he is ready and eager for school to begin this year.
The Liquid Facelift -- A Fountain of Youth
Jan 31, 2012 7:50 PM

Women in their forties begin to notice that their youthfulness and facial vibrancy is lessening. They want to look fresh and young again. The liquid facelift is an excellent solution to this problem.

The liquid facelift is not an overnight procedure. It is a series of injections of dermal fillers that lift, plump up, fill, re-contour and smooth the face. These injections are spread over three or four appointments. In some procedures, Botox is used.

Jill Zarins, of the Real Housewives of New York, finished Season 2 looking tired and older. When she returned for Season 3, she looked at least 10 years younger. Although most viewers surmised that Jill had undergone a facelift, she hadn't. Instead Jill had chosen the liquid facelift.

Demi Moore and Madonna are stars who seem to be defying the aging process by regular liquid-facelift procedures. This is far safer than a traditional facelift. The recovery time from a liquid facelift is quite minimal.

The liquid facelift has been called a "fountain of youth, without a scalpel." There are many treatment choices for a liquid facelift. Usually, a successful liquid facelift combines several.

The most common treatment is Botox. This is injected strategically into areas where wrinkles are prominent. Within a few days, wrinkles relax and disappear. Botox lasts from six months to a year. 

Next are the tissue fillers -- Radiesse, Restylane, Juvederm and Perlane. Injections of one of these can lift cheeks and eyelids and provide facial plumping.

Sculptra, a collagen stimulator, is used for volumizing areas of the face and stimulating the face's natural collagen production.

All of the products used in a liquid facelift can last for up to a year, with almost no recovery time. Women are learning that the liquid facelift is an effective alternative to going under the knife.

Does swelling generally remain in the nasal tip longer than 8 weeks?
Jan 23, 2012 2:40 PM

My rhinoplasty was 8 weeks ago. The swelling has gone down from my bridge and that looks great but my nasal tip is still very, very swollen. Is it likely at this point that I'll need revision rhinoplasty to refine the tip? Does swelling generally remain in the tip longer?

This is very normal especially if your surgeon used an open rhinoplasty approach. Your tip will look a lot different in 6 months. Don't think about revision right now.
