Before Face Lift Surgery

IMPORTANT

You must stop smoking for several weeks before and after the surgery, because smoking can interfere with healing.

During your first consultation, your doctor will ask you about:

  • Your expectations
  • Your general health
  • Any specific conditions that might interfere with surgery
The doctor will also examine your facial structure, including skin texture, color and elasticity and the underlying bone, discuss how your face can be changed, explain the details of the procedure, and develop a plan for surgery and healing with you.

You may not take aspirin or any non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory medicine (such as Advil or Motrin; Tylenol is acceptable) for about two weeks before and after the surgery.
