What to expect from a Quick Facelift
- Local anesthesia: The treated area is numb, but you will be fully awake and alert. By contrast, mid facelifts include a sedating medication provided through an IV during surgery, while a full facelift can be performed under local with IV sedation or general anesthesia.
- Operating time of 1 hour: By comparison, a mid facelift takes 1.5 hours and a full facelift takes 2 hours.
- Incisions are placed along the ear creases: The incisions are hidden in ear creases and contours, similar to those of a mid facelift but far less extensive than those of a full facelift.
- Tightens skin in cheek area: A quick facelift focuses on skin in the cheek area, while a mid facelift treats skin and muscle in this area, and a full facelift treats skin and muscle in a larger area.
