Face surgery with Dr. Commons

March 25, 2010

Facelift surgical technique has gone from extremely simple in the early years, to far too complex, and now is returning to a happy middle ground of just right. There is still attention to the skin , fat, and muscles of the face, and the results are excellent with the less invasive and quicker to heal technique. I am certainly not referring to the advertised noontime lifts that take less than an hour and are quite frankly nonsense. I am talking about a real facelift of the highest quality. Operating time varies from 3 to 4 hours, depending on age and work required for perfection. This facelift of 2010 can be done under local anesthesia but quite frankly, when I have my facelift, I will prefer the comfort and added security of general anesthesia and a MD anesthesiologist in attendance. I never compromise safety for my patients. Think long and hard before entering into any surgical procedure without an MD anesthesiologist by your side. The anesthesiologist affords you comfort and supreme safety. An anesthesiologist in attendance allows me to concentrate totally on your facelift surgery and obtain the very best results for you.
