By using local anesthesia for this procedure, two-thirds of the patient’s sagging skin is tightened, and wrinkles are smoothened.
According to Dr. Robert W. Sheffield, “We combine the facelift procedure with the neck lift procedure to remove the excess fat from the face and chin areas. As we use local anesthesia, the particular part is just numbed, and your blood pressure also remains stable. Even we make sure that your body remains physiologically stable too. We will carry out the facelift procedure after full diagnosis as we choose the right candidate.”

“We make sure to use the local or tumescent anesthesia to make sure that there is no risk of toxicity when it is administered to the patient. By using the larger volume of the tumescent fluid known as ‘tumescence’, the patient is saved from the risks associated with general anesthesia. It will even lower down anxiety levels and any signs of discomfort in the patient. You will not experience any bruising, swelling, or hematoma formation under the skin. After the facelift procedure, we make sure that our patient’s skin gives an incredibly natural look and not an operational look,” he further added.
