Face & Neck Lift

Everyone ages differently, but most will notice the first signs of aging with the loss of  facial volume. Injectable fillers and BOTOX will be the right initial beauty solution for them. Others may notice their elasticity is not what it used to be and are ready for a more aggressive beauty step with one of our mini or full face and neck lifts. The amount of surgery suggested is determined by the extent of structural change which is causing your aged appearance.

At FUZION, we focus on the right amount of lift for your individual face. Dr. Goodkind offers both a mini and a full face and neck lift based on your particular wants and needs.

What is a face and neck lift?
A properly performed face and neck lift (rhytidectomy) will rejuvenate your look by repositioning the cheek mounds, tightening the underlying muscular support systems, and removing excess fat and skin. Face lifts can be either "mini" or "full". A mini face lift requires less surgical dissection to achieve the desired result and is tailored for the less aged face.

What it is recommended for:

  • Increased sagging of face and neck.
  • Loss of elasticity in the lower face or neck.
  • Handles drooping and sagging of mid to lower face and neck.
  • Excessive fat in neck.

What to expect:

  • 
Face and neck lifts are done under general or local anesthesia.
  • Either procedure should result in a very natural, refreshed look with surgical incisions that will be hard to identify.
  • There may be minimal bruising and swelling with mild discomfort.
  • After approximately two weeks, you'll feel and look presentable.
  • As a complimentary service to each of our surgical patients, energy healing services are available prior to their surgical procedure. This is a holistic and integrative form of energy medicine designed to alleviate the stress some patients feel in the hours before their surgery. Additional care during and after your surgical procedure may be added for an additional cost.

"Last month, I was a patient of Dr. Goodkind and Fuzion I had thoroughly researched all the face lift procedures I wanted done. I turn 65 later this year and thought it was time! I interviewed several plastic surgeons. I had a LOT of questions. I can’t say enough good things about this practice ... my results are absolutely terrific. From the moment you walk in the door, you know that you are going to be treated fabulously. The staff is so friendly and professional. They obviously love what they do and want you to be happy. Apart from Dr. Goodkind’s stellar reputation, what impressed me on first meeting is his enthusiasm for what he does, and his confidence in achieving a great result for his patients. He made me feel so special ... from initial trepidation and nervousness, I quickly became excited too! He is truly talented. When evaluating my face, I liked that he freely offered his opinions and various options, quickly jumping up to take photos of me to illustrate his points. No other PS I interviewed took as much time as he did, and conveyed such a strong sense of TEAM, with me as the goal. After surgery, Kati performed the finishing touches with some botox and filler in the frown-y lines. Love the result … she knows just what you need. I will be a customer forever! Last night, I gave a family birthday party, and got the rave reviews. My favorite was: 'You still look like ‘Vicki’, only Vicki 20 years ago!' Perfect."
