Facelift for Men

With Dr. L. Scott Ennis · Boca Raton, Florida

Facelift surgery is not just for women. In fact, men in increasing numbers, are having cosmetic procedures to restore a more youthful appearance. The facelift, with or without accompanying procedures like eyelid surgery, chin implants and skin rejuvenation, is a very effective option that yields a lasting and natural result and requires only a small amount of downtime.

A facelift considers more than the skin

Facelift planning considers skin, the supporting facial layer and the deeper tissues. The technique depends on facial anatomy and any previous surgery.

Skin and the supporting layer are separate structures.

The chosen approach determines which tissues are repositioned.

The facelift for men includes preserving sideburns and hair lines and concealing incisions so the final result is a natural enhancement without any signs that surgery has been performed.

As a restorative surgery, a facelift does not change the fundamental appearance of your face, rather it addresses areas like sagging jowls that can make you appear older than you are or overly tired and not engaged.

The loss of youthful contours in the face is a natural part of aging and is often driven by heredity, stress and prolonged exposure to environmental factors like the sun. Men who have gained or lost weight might also notice changes in facial contours.

  • Sagging in the mid-face and along the jawline
  • Fat that has fallen or disappeared
  • Loose skin and excess fatty tissue that causes the appearance of a double chin
