Surgical Facelift in Houston: Price and Types

Under general (inhalation) anaesthesia you won’t feel any pain during surgery. The first few days may bring discomfort and tightness, which are relieved with medication from your doctor.

Yes. During the first 7–10 days: rest, a compression bandage and less physical activity. Swelling and bruising fade within 2–4 weeks, and full recovery takes about 2 months. For the whole first year, your operating surgeon follows you up.

One surgery is enough for a complete result; a repeat procedure may follow after 7–10 years if the patient wishes.

Surgery is, as a rule, recommended at 40+ with marked tissue sagging — in some cases from 35. After an examination, the recommendation is given individually.
