Asian Facelift in Atlanta, GA

As people age, their skin tends to wrinkle and sag. However, different ethnicities have different needs. People of Asian descent, for example, tend to have thick and dense facial skin, which requires a different technique than a standard facelift. While the thickness of the skin helps prevent fine lines and wrinkles, facelifts for Asian descent often focus on drooping muscles of the face and neck. A deep facelift will help rejuvenate this thick skin for long-lasting results. The deep facelift approach is also more successful in reaching the buccal fat pads of the cheeks, which tend to be larger in Asian faces. Reducing the buccal fat pads creates a younger, brighter, and rejuvenated appearance.

An Asian facelift performed by Dr. Mang at Rejuve Aesthetic Surgery in the Atlanta, GA area can provide individuals of Asian descent with a refreshed look while considering unique skin and fat differences. Benefits of an Asian facelift may include:

• Minimizing various signs of aging
• Refining overall facial shape
• Applying special attention to the facial features that are most often present in Asian faces
• Going deeper into the skin to address the denser facial skin most people of Asian descent have
• Customized treatment plans for your specific concerns and aesthetic goals
• Addressing baggy, hanging skin
• Great for improving moderate to severe lines and creases
• Reducing the visibility of lines and creases near your eyes and mouth
• Minor scarring that may be smoothly covered
• Effects are long-lasting

If you are of Asian descent and have noticed that your face is starting to look tired or aged, a facelift may be just what you need. If you are experiencing drooping or sagging skin, a facelift can rejuvenate your skin and give you a refreshed and glowing appearance. If you're in the Atlanta, GA area and are in good physical health, are a nonsmoker, and have realistic expectations, Dr. Mang and his team at Rejuve Aesthetic Surgery may be able to provide you with an Asian facelift to help you have a youthful appearance while focusing on what will specifically help your results last longer.

One of the most important factors when providing our patients with a facelift is understanding the thick and heavy tissues of the Asian face that need be addressed in order for a facelift to last. Dr. Mang is highly skilled and educated in the ethnic differences of the Asian facial structure and can attend to his patients' specific needs. While you relax in one of our comfortable private procedure rooms, Dr. Mang will perform your facelift with the intensity and care discussed during your initial consultation. It's likely he will use a deeper approach to your facelift to ensure he addresses your thick and heavy skin and is able to access the buccal fat pads. Depending on your needs, your facelift could extend into your neck.

While recovery time varies from patient to patient, you should be able to get back to your normal everyday activities within a week or so. You will likely experience some bruising and swelling, but that is normal and will go away in time. Some patients may experience some numbness near the incision site. This, too, is normal and should disappear as you continue to heal. Dr. Mang or a member of his team will give you at-home care instructions and set up any follow-up appointments as necessary.

How is an Asian facelift different than other facelifts?
Often, because Asian skin is thicker and more resilient, a specialized deeper facelift method is used. This tightens sagging or drooping skin for a more youthful look while taking care to maintain and preserve unique ethnic features.

How much does an Asian facelift cost?
The costs for your Asian facelift procedure will be discussed during your consultation with Dr. Mang. There are a variety of factors that can affect the cost, including facelift procedures and aesthetic goals. After Dr. Mang has decided on the right course to achieve your goals, he can estimate your costs.

How long is the recovery time after an Asian facelift?
Every patient has their own unique healing responses, but most patients should plan to take a week off from regular activities. During the recovery period, some patients may experience minor discomfort, swelling, or bruising. During your consultation, Dr. Mang or a member of his team can talk to you about aftercare and recovery time.

Are the results from an Asian facelift surgery immediate?
While you will notice a change in your facial appearance shortly after surgery, the final results will become evident after the swelling and bruising subside, usually within a few months.

What is the best age to get an Asian facelift?
There is no specific "best" age for an Asian facelift, as the timing largely depends on individual aging patterns and personal preferences. However, patients often consider this procedure anywhere from their 40s to 60s.

How long do the results of an Asian facelift last?
The results of an Asian facelift are typically long-lasting. However, natural aging may still occur. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including refraining from smoking, a healthy diet, and regular physical activity, can help extend the results.
