A Facelift as Unique as You Are
Dr. Paresi will select the best surgical approach to meet your needs and achieve your distinct aesthetic vision. He is skilled in multiple facelift techniques, including:
- SMAS Facelift: The gold standard for comprehensive rejuvenation, this technique lifts and tightens the superficial musculo-aponeurotic system (SMAS) for long-lasting results.
- Deep Plane Facelift: This advanced technique for patients with more significant facial sagging repositions deeper tissues for the most dramatic lift.
- Mini Facelift: This less invasive option can be ideal for patients with early signs of aging, addressing mild jowling and skin laxity with a shorter recovery period.
During your consultation, Dr. Paresi will perform a thorough evaluation and recommend the safest, most effective technique for making your desired outcome a reality.

Frequently Asked Questions
Am I a good candidate for a facelift?
Facelift candidates are typically healthy individuals concerned with moderate to severe signs of facial aging, such as sagging in the mid-face, loose, hanging skin, and jowling. To find out if a facelift is right for you, schedule a consultation with Dr. Paresi today.
Will my results look natural?
Yes. Dr. Paresi uses advanced techniques that lift and support the deeper facial structures instead of simply tightening the skin. This approach restores youthful contours while preserving your natural appearance, so you look refreshed, not overdone.
What is the recovery process like?
You can expect swelling and bruising for the first week or two, during which time rest is crucial. Most patients can resume light activities within about two weeks, followed by a gradual return to their normal routine over several weeks. It can take a few months or more for swelling to fully subside and reveal the final result. To learn more about what to expect with facelift surgery, schedule a consultation with Dr. Paresi today.
