Procedure Description:

This patient told Dr. Sadati, “Living in a seaside community like Huntington Beach is such a carefree experience; unfortunately, all the little worries in life are starting to show in my face and neck.” She had been thinking about a face and neck lift for approximately 5 years, but when her neck started to sag, she decided it was time to make a change. Choosing the best facial plastic surgeon in Orange County was extremely important to her, and she felt Dr. Sadatis 3,500+ face and neck lifts made him the perfect choice.

Before her procedures, she received local anesthesia and twilight sedation, which is similar to the type of anesthesia used during colonoscopies. Dr. Sadati removed the excess skin and fatty tissue in her neck, tightened the muscles underneath, and rejuvenated her lower face and neck evenly and naturally. These 8-week post-op photos show both his skill and her satisfaction. She now looks more toned, refreshed, and vibrant and couldn’t be happier with Dr. Sadati’s work and expertise.

Your Surgery Questions Answered with Dr. Kevin Sadati

Should I lose weight before SMAS facelift and neck lift?

If you’re in the process of losing weight or plan to lose more than 10% of your body weight, Dr. Sadati recommends delaying your surgical procedures until you’ve lost the weight or are very near your goal. When you lose weight, you can lose facial volume, and that can result in sagging in the face and neck areas. It is always best to be at a healthy stable weight before undergoing any surgical procedure, especially a facelift, since physical reductions in overall body mass can lead to gauntness in the face and sagging tissue.
