Face Lift
The Anterior Vertical SMAS Face Lift, developed by White Plains and Mount Kisco plastic surgeon Robert W. Bernard, MD, takes the best elements of several face lift techniques and combines them in a unique way to achieve natural-looking, long-lasting results with fewer scars. Dr. Bernard, who is a Past President of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), has performed this newer face lift surgery technique on hundreds of patients in our Westchester County cosmetic surgery facility and taught it to plastic surgeons through journal publications and at national plastic surgery meetings.
Key elements of Dr. Bernard's face lift surgery techniques are:
- Face lift is supported by the underlying structures of the face.
- Support is achieved without undermining the tissues as extensively as some other techniques, which increases safety and decreases recovery time.
- Well-concealed scars make the technique popular with patients; the incision is hidden just inside the ear and is positioned in back so that a woman can wear her hair up without a visible scar.
- Facial sculpting is often part of the procedure, and Dr. Bernard uses his special sculpting technique to contour what he has labeled the "submandibular trough" -- the area of shadow just beneath the curve of the jaw line that typically contributes to the finely chiseled look of so many photographic models.
Other things to remember about Dr. Bernard's face lifts:
- Face lift results are highly individual. Dr. Bernard tailors his procedure to fit each individual patient's needs.
- In some cases, Dr. Bernard can perform a "mini-lift" which is a less extensive procedure that often has a shorter recovery time.
- A face lift will not correct baggy eyelids or sagging brows. We can perform face lift surgery at our Westchester County facility in conjunction with eyelid surgery and other facial procedures to give you the best overall look possible.
- Not all physicians have the same amount of surgical training. Many claim to be face lift experts but don’t have the necessary skill and experience. Dr. Bernard has more than 25 years experience and is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. As a Past President of the nation’s most prestigious organization for board-certified plastic surgeons who specialize in cosmetic surgery, the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, Dr. Bernard has established his reputation in the medical community and has earned the respect of his patients and peers.
