Male Facelift in Newport Beach

Actual Patients of Dr. Ackerman Before & After Photos

Over the years, men have started to take an interest in plastic surgery to maintain their youthful appearance. Dr. Ackerman is one of a few plastic surgeons who specializes in male facelift surgery.

Facial signs of aging, such as wrinkles, fine lines, and saggy skin, can make a man look older than he is or feels, which often negatively affects his self-esteem. Fortunately, facelift surgery is not just for women. Dr. Ackerman has devised a process that provides his male patients with many options in facial rejuvenation surgery. Some patients choose just eyelid surgery or a neck lift, while some choose a complete transformation that can make them look much younger and more handsome. When done properly, these surgical procedures create very natural facial features.

Benefits of Male Facelift Surgery

Masculine Contours

Signs of facial aging can begin to diminish chiseled features, making the face look droopy. Facelift surgery will not only address signs of aging but will also return the appearance of masculinity.

Youthful Appearance

Drooping structures of the face and neck can create an aged appearance. This includes aging of the skin, fatty layers, and facial muscles. Male facelift surgery can eliminate these issues and improve definition in the neck, jawline, and face.

Improved Self-esteem

The effects of aging can make anyone feel insecure about the way they look. Facelift surgery will not only tighten skin and enhance facial contours, but it will also boost self-confidence.

Your Male Facelift Plan

Consultation

Every patient has unique facial structures that should be evaluated before a facelift plan is developed. During your consultation, Dr. Ackerman will determine the best option for your surgery depending on your facial anatomy and the amount of correction needed, including the following:

Which areas of skin need to be addressed
The degree of ptosis (sagging) in the facial muscles
How fat and volume are distributed across the face

Incisions

During your procedure, Dr. Ackerman will pay close attention to the incision placement along your hairline and behind your ears. Men with thin hair or a receding hairline may be more limited in their incision options if they wish to avoid visible scars.

Procedure

After the incisions are made, Dr. Ackerman will carefully reposition and redistribute fat under the skin to restore volume to your face. Your facial muscles are then lifted and tightened, and excess skin is removed. The remaining skin is then redraped over your face, and sutures are used to close the incisions.

Concerns

Recovery

Following your procedure, swelling and bruising will occur but should resolve after a few days. Be sure to avoid all strenuous activities for at least two weeks. Your wounds should be fully healed six weeks after your surgery.

Results

You can expect long-lasting results that will enhance your facial appearance and highlight your new contours. Final results will become apparent after all swelling and bruising have dissipated, typically after six weeks.

Scars

Most incisions are placed in discreet locations along your hairline. Any visible scarring that does occur can be hidden with makeup, hats, or scarves and will fade over time.

Pain

You will experience some moderate discomfort following your facelift procedure. Dr. Ackerman will prescribe oral medication to help control the pain.
