Beverly Hills patient dislikes droopy face and undergoes a face lift*

This 62-year-old White female patient disliked the way her face was “droopy”, “wrinkly”, and “old”. She had a consultation with Dr. Katzen to discuss how she could improve her face. After her consultation, she decided to undergo a face lift. Her face and neck lift included SMAS plication as well as a platysmaplasty. At the end of her face and necklift, her skin was red-draped over the face and pulled “not too tightly”. Her facelift and necklift surgery took approximately four hours under general anesthesia. After her face and necklift surgery, she was extremely thrilled with her fresh and younger face.
