Question:

I am 68-years-old and I am seeking a facelift procedure, but I live alone and my family lives at least an hour away from me.  Is it possible to drive myself home after the facelift surgery?

Answer:

You need to have help for the first 24-48 hours after this procedure. For patients in your situation we generally offer two options. You can be discharged home with a driver and nurse or aid who will stay with you until you are able to care for yourself. You can be transferred to a recovery facility which is like a hotel/spa where you will be cared for and pampered as well if you wish (massage, manicure etc.)
