Facelift

There are many different types of face lift surgeries. Dr. Fernau will carefully restore a rested, natural and younger contour. His advanced experience will enable him to perform a “precision tailoring: system to ensure amazing results.

Depending on the degree of change you would like to see, your face lift choices include a traditional face lift, limited incision face lift, advanced liquid face lift or a neck lift.

Dr. Fernau can perform these procedures in the office where the patients receive “nerve blocks” during surgery when they are asleep, which means the pain cycle is controlled from the very beginning.

The average facelift done today lasts ten to fifteen years and follow-up procedures can be performed to keep you looking as good as you can for even many more years.

Face Lift Before & After


The best candidates are men and women whose face and neck have started to sag but have good skin elasticity. Strong and well-defined bone structure is also a plus. Facelifts have been successfully performed on patients in their 70s and 80s.

Bruising usually fades within two weeks and after a few days you will be permitted to wear camouflage makeup. After the recuperation period many of our patients say, “I wish I’d done it sooner."
