This is because I've personally developed a revolutionary technique that not only eliminates the need for drains but adds internal sealing glues to reduce bruising while minimizing swelling and scarring. With this approach, patients can resume their normal activities within a week\u2014and within just two weeks, they'll be completely camera-ready. It's a game-changer, and it's only recently become a reality. Thanks to this new technique, patients can enhance their natural beauty and boost their confidence not just in fall and winter, but whenever it suits them best.<\/p>\n
Social Media's Influence on Year-Round Plastic Surgery Trends<\/h3>\n
Social media has a huge impact on demand, and that\u2019s been wonderful for our practice. I\u2019ve developed a method that ensures patients are back to work in just a week and completely camera-ready in two, so I\u2019m always happy to dispel the myth that certain times of the year are better than others for plastic surgery. However, social media can also set patients up for unrealistic expectations. A huge part of the consultation process for any surgeon is education; that is, making sure patients understand what is achievable via surgery\u2014and that the filtered, heavily edited photos that fill our feeds are just that: filtered and heavily edited. Some surgeons, of course, have mastered the art of that one-size-fits-all \u201cinstaface\u201d look, however, that\u2019s simply not something I\u2019m interested in (and frankly, neither are my patients). Our collective goal is always a natural, sculptural approach that celebrates the ethnic nuances that make us unique. It\u2019s about refining, not redesigning.<\/p>\n
While it\u2019s certainly applicable to other types of surgery, my technique has changed the way we think about the deep plane facelift. Simply put, this is not your grandmother\u2019s facelift. Not only are the recovery times unparalleled, but the patients we\u2019re seeing are younger than ever. These are men and women in their 40s and 50s who are well-educated about plastic surgery and ready for an alternative to filler. My patients are seeking subtle, sculptural changes that get ahead of the aging process in a permanent way, and I\u2019m happy to be able to deliver just that.<\/p>\n My technique has eliminated the need for drains, which speeds up healing time and minimizes scarring. Because of this, I\u2019m proud to say that most\u2014if not all\u2014of my patients are back to work in a week and camera-ready in two. So while I would never suggest that a patient schedule a facelift a week before a big vacation, I can say with confidence that there is no longer an \u201cideal time\u201d for plastic surgery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Fall and winter tends to be a popular time for facial plastic surgery.
