Facelift in Naples, FL

This low down-time facelift is ideal for those individuals with sagging tissues along the jawline and upper neck. It differs from most of the other ‘mini-lifts’ because it is not simply a skin suspension procedure or a simple SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) suturing procedure. The UpLift Facelift involves complex neck reconstruction with a muscle reattachment procedure, liposuction if needed, as well as tightening of the support system of the face (the superficial musculoaponeurotic system or SMAS) with a SMAS flap. Incisions are hidden inside the ear, around the earlobe, and under the chin.

The beauty of this procedure is that it offers dramatic results, with about a one to two week recovery. The UpLift™ is most commonly performed with intravenous anesthesia, and takes about 2-3.5 hours to perform.

Before and After Photos

Dr. Anurag Agarwal, a Naples board certified facial plastic surgeon, has modified the traditional lower face and neck lift to develop the Uplift, which he feels offers an ideal solution for tightening the jawline and upper neck. This type of a facelift does not replace the need for an endoscopic midface lift or a lower face and neck lift in the appropriate patient. An individual consultation with one of our Naples plastic surgeons can help determine which procedure is ideally suited for your face, your budget, and your lifestyle – Contact our Naples Facelift Specialist today!

  • Dr. Agarwal, From the very first day that JA and I met you, we saw instantly what a warm talented caring gentleman you were! And our knowledge of all those amazing traits has only become more validated as the years go by. I so admire your patience and understanding toward me as I struggled over the years to schedule this procedure. You never wavered in your ability to make me feel comfortable, even with all my postponements due to years and my ongoing “neck situation”. I now understand your total awareness of what a ‘personal decision this surgery really is, and your amazing expertise in gently presenting all the information….during the numerous consultations I had with you! Anurag my sincerest “Thank you” for putting such a Big youthful Smile back on my face!

The UpLift Facelift FAQs

How do I know if I am a candidate for The UpLift™?

An individual consultation with one of our Plastic Surgeons, Dr. Agarwal, Dr. Maloney, or Dr. Ross, is the best way to determine which procedure is best suited to meet your goals. During this consultation, the surgeon will examine you, and computer imaging will be utilized to demonstrate proposed changes to you.

What is the right age to have The UpLift™?

This procedure can be performed on anyone ages 35 and up. Because this procedure is performed under local anesthesia, there is no age limit. The underlying tissue layer is strengthened during this procedure, specifically along the jaw line and upper neck. Anyone with looseness in this area is a candidate for the UpLift™.

How long is the recovery process?

Generally speaking, it takes one to two weeks for most of the swelling and any bruising to resolve. This can vary from individual to individual. Make-up can be applied within one week after The UpLift™.

How long do the results last?

The UpLift™ will make you look younger than your chronologic age. However, you will continue to age after the procedure. Because the technique is a modification of established traditional facelifting techniques, the results should have the same longevity. The best way to think about this is setting the clock back on the aging calendar. For example, if you are currently 65 years old, and after a facelift you look 55 years old, then 10 years from now you will look 65, not 75 years old. You will always look younger than you would if you had not had the facelift.

Are there any drains after the procedure?

Ultra-thin drains are usually used for two to three days post-operatively in order to reduce bruising and swelling. These are removed easily in the office.

Do I need someone to take care of me after my UpLift™?

You will need someone to help you for one day post-operatively. If a supportive friend or family member is not available, then home nursing can be arranged through our office.

What kind of anesthesia is utilized during The UpLift™?

This procedure is done with intravenous sedation at our state of the art AAAASF (American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities) certified office surgical center.

Am I going to bruise after The UpLift™?

There is mild bruising after The UpLift™. This varies from individual to individual. Make-up can be applied within one week.

Are there stitches and when are they removed?

Our facial plastic surgeons use fine, delicate sutures to close all incisions. The majority of these are dissolvable. The remaining sutures are removed about 7-9 days post-operatively.

Where is the procedure performed?

Most procedures are performed at our state of the art AAAASF (American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities) certified office surgical center.  We maintain an impeccable operating room and suite, with utmost attention to your safety.

When I can workout after The UpLift™?

You will be able to resume walking exercises about 3-4 days post-operatively. You will be able to start running and weight training after two weeks, and advance from there.

When can I play golf after my UpLift™?

Generally speaking, you can begin putting and chipping at ten days. You can resume your full swing at three weeks.

When can I swim after The UpLift™?

You can swim in the pool or ocean about 3 weeks post-operatively.

When can I color my hair?

Ideally, we recommend coloring your hair a couple of days before your UpLift™. You can color it again 3 weeks post-operatively.

Is The UpLift™ painful?

Most patients tolerate the 10 minute local anesthetic injection process very well. Post-operatively, you may experience a tight sensation, temporary numbness, and slight discomfort. Pain is uncommon after any facial plastic surgery.

When can I drive?

After an UpLift™ facelift, you will be able to drive your own car about two days post-operatively, provided that you are not still taking narcotic pain medicine.

How long do I need to be in town after The UpLift™ and when can I fly again?

At the Aesthetic Surgery Center, we have many national and international patients who fly to Naples for their facial plastic surgery. We ask that you remain in town for at least 7 days after The UpLift™. After that, you are free to fly.

How long will the scars be noticeable after The UpLift™?

The incisions for The UpLift™ are hidden within the ear and under the chin. The scars are slightly red and noticeable upon close inspection for one month post-operatively. Beyond that, they fade and blend in beautifully.
