How can I get the best result with the shortest recovery quickly and safely?

ANSWER:

QUICK FIX

The QUICK FIX is a short scar facelift with upper eyelid surgery performed safely in the office under local anesthesia with mild oral sedation.  This can also be combined with liposuction of the neck, fat injections and BOTOX.

The short scar facelift utilizes a shorter incision and provides a quicker recovery than a full facelift.  Dr. Weiss has been performing this procedure for more than ten years. The results are nearly as good as full facelifts for many patients not requiring correction of significant neck deformities.  Liposuction can be added to eliminate neck fat.  Excess skin can be removed from the upper eyelids eliminating that tired look.

The goal is for the patient to look like they did ten or fifteen years ago - NOT like a different person and NOT like they had something done!  After surgery people should notice you look great, but not know why (unless you tell them).

Fat can also be injected into the cheeks, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines.  As we age, our facial muscles atrophy, skin relaxes, and our faces get long and narrow.  Babies faces are short and wide with full cheeks.  Fat injections restore volume to the face and a natural, youthful appearance.

Finally, BOTOX can be added to the forehead and glabella to eliminate wrinkles.  Although BOTOX needs to be repeated for maintenance, it avoids an open or endoscopic browlift surgery and  lengthy recovery.

Full facelifts to address all face and neck concerns and browlifts to address the forehead are still the gold standard procedures for facial rejuvenation, especially for older patients.

The QUICK FIX is a more conservative approach to facial rejuvenation and is just what many patients are looking for today.   Less surgery, less expense, quicker recovery, and great natural looking results.

Any combination of the above procedures can be performed safely in the office under local anesthesia fixing things quickly and affordably.
