facelift results

The Golden Girls legend Betty White was quoted in a recent interview saying that she wished some of her friends had aged gracefully and not had plastic surgery because she barely recognizes them. She says that people will come up to her and she will recognize their voice, but she just cannot identify their new face. Betty says she would not consider plastic surgery and prefers to age gracefully.  The good news is that subtle facial plastic surgery results do exist, the trick is finding a discerning plastic surgeon like Dr. John LeRoy.

The most common negative review of the facelift is the unnatural, stretched look it provides, causing patients to look unlike themselves. Dr. LeRoy has developed a mini-facelift procedure, called the Band Aid facelift, which provides a more youthful lifted look, without compromising the patients’ natural features. Therefore, the patient still looks like his or herself.

Dr. LeRoy realizes that the goal of facial plastic surgery is not to drastically change a patient’s appearance, but to emphasize the patient’s naturally attractive features by rejuvenating only certain areas:  lifting the forehead region (forehead lift) or eliminating excess skin along the chin area (neck lift.) The Band Aid Facelift, and LeRoy’s other band aid procedures, are not as expansive as their traditional versions, but can be performed in-office with local anesthesia targeting the patient’s problem areas. These “mini” procedures also cut down on recovery time and hospitalization costs.
