Daniel C. Mills, M.D., FACS

Face Lift

A facelift will allow you to turn back the hands of time and better reflect your youthful spirit. Both men and women complain that they cannot stop the hands of time. From sagging eyelids and facial skin to a droopy neckline, Dr. Mills sees many patients that desire to reverse the effects of age on their face and neck. Most patients say that their wrinkles and sagging skin do not reflect their youthful spirit and energy level. They consult with Dr. Mills for options to refresh their look. Dr. Mills performs many variations of rhytidectomy, or facelift surgery, to smooth out the loose skin of the face and neck, tighten the underlying tissues and muscle and remove any excess skin.

There are several surgical options that Dr. Mills performs and each addresses a different area of the face. The first option is the Sub Muscular Aponeurotic System (SMAS) facelift. This facelift is often the most effective and longest-lasting means of addressing jowling, facial wrinkling and excess skin to the face and neck. This procedure is especially effective in addressing the issue of a turkey-gobbler neck. We all know how time can cause the facial skin to sag and lose its elasticity. Dr. Mills uses the SMAS facelift to lift and secure the sagging skin and underlying muscle structure to a firmer and smoother position across the face and neck. The incisions are inconspicuously hidden in the natural contour of the ear and extend around the earlobe and back into the hairline. There is also a tiny incision under the chin.
