About Facelift Surgery
A facelift in Southlake is a surgical procedure that improves visible signs of aging in the face and neck.
A full facelift procedure includes tightening the cheeks, the jowls (the skin around the lower jaw), and the neck. Ideal candidates for facelifts are non-smoking men or women over 40 in good overall health who are looking for a more youthful appearance.

Expert Care
Southlake Plastic Surgeons Dr. Mark Mason and Dr. Matt Novak are well-trained and board certified in all aspects of both cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery.
Both surgeons now focus their practice on cosmetic surgical and non-surgical procedures of the breast, body, face, and nose. Their combined expertise and love for aesthetic surgery led them to study plastic and reconstructive surgery at leading medical institutions throughout the country.
Combine Procedures to Maximize Results
It does not address the forehead, brows, or eyes.
However, in many cases, facelifts are performed in combination with other procedures such as a brow lift and/or eyelid lift.
The Recovery Process
A facelift in Southlake can help you look younger and more well-rested but it will not change your overall facial appearance or facial structure.
The signs of aging this procedure helps with include sagging skin, deep fold of the skin between nose and corners of mouth, fat that has disappeared, jowls and loose skin, and excess fat of the neck that give one a double chin appearance or “turkey neck.”
