About Facial Rejuvenation

Dr. Suzman's reputation and outstanding reviews for facelift surgery are the result of years consistently delivering results that exceed expectations. Since first learning facelift surgery from some of whte best known plastic surgeons in the world, Dr. Suzman has performed well over 5000 cosmetic facial procedures.  So you can be assured you are getting the best in experience, training, artistry and results.  The best facelift surgeons  in the  world must have keep patients looking just like themselves- completely natural, yet rejuvenated.   Dr. Michael Suzman employs advanced, comprehensive rejuvenation techniques that address the  skin health in the most natural manner possible.  Avoiding the  common "pulled" look that most doctors achieve with facelift surgery is the hallmark of Dr. Suzman's innovative approach to facial aging correction.  Treating the skin at the cellular level as well as the structural level results in the most natural outcome possible.  With a delicate combination of deep plane facelift elevation, precise skin lifting, fat transfer, nanofat stem cell treatments for collagen production and skin health, Dr. Suzman's techniques and skills allow for precise results with minimal scarring. A  custom facelift and skin health plan will be determined during each patient's visit to our Westchester County, NY , Greenwich CT or Manhattan NYC offices.  Dr. Suzman will take the time to understand every patient's unique journey and cosmetic goals, eager to collaborate with them on their individual treatment plan.   

Dr. Suzman has pioneered Phase Lifting, where each phase of treatment optimizes skin health and structure.  Starting with advanced skin care with retinoids and antioxidant serums, proceeding to structural fat grafting and TCA peels, then using deep plane face and neck lift surgery, the results are far superior to the results most non ASPS and Aesthetic Society Member surgeons can achieve.

Dr. Suzman learned facelift and anti aging procedures from NYC's best during his many years of fellowship training in surgery.  He was among the first in the United States to employ nanofat treatment for skin health and grafting for volume enhancement.  While fat grafting is new for many, Dr. Suzman pioneered facial fat grafting starting in the year 2000. With a facelift from Dr. Suzman, your skin is not only lifted and gently smoothed, the texture and youthfulness of your skin is rejuvenated as well. 

 

 

 

 

 

Best Candidates

 Our best outcomes and happiest patients want a natural result that does not look like a facelift or overly-filled and puffy look.  They are able to take some time off to allow time for healing- typically a week of some rest and a few weeks of some swelling.

Deep place Facelifts have the most lasting and refined result in patients from ages 46-60 or so.  The techniques can be modified for patients over 65, where the skin can be thinner.  Many patients benefit from a series of smaller procedures 6 months apar , such as:

Fat grafting, TCA peel and Renuvion helium plasma tightening in the office, followed by a more surgical facelift if needed in 6-12 months. Finally a touch up office fat graft and chemical peel a year later.  This plan results in less down time and a superior result for the best facelift outcomes.

Many patients ask what is the difference between lasers, IPL, injectables, radiofrequency treatment, micro needling and lift surgery. It can be overwhelming to decide and choose what is right. When you meet with Dr. Suzman, you can be assured he is experienced in ALL of these treatments so he can best recommend  which to use and when, so you have the best care plan possible. 

 

 

 

What to Expect

 

Today's facelift surgeries are much different than in the past. There are numerous techniques used, depending on the age of the patient, as well as the condition of the skin and amount of laxity. Some techniques address the skin's surface only, while other goes deeper into the underlying tissues. In addition, a full facelift will address the entire face, a more limited focus on the neck  or cheek areas or eyelids can be done. With 25 years of outstanding facelift surgery care, you can be assured that you are getting among the best with Dr. Suzman.

Unless you are travelling from out of town for surgery, you can recover easily and safely at home.  Our enhanced recovery protocol means less pain, swelling, and lower complications.

Dr. Suzman was an expert in gently removing my stitches. He was interested in me and explained everything about healing after a bad fall. I would go to him as a patient if I needed plastic surgery.

Advanced skin care is essential to prevent the inevitable progress of facial aging.    Along with Dr. Suzman's facelift  and facial aging procedures,he will outline the optimal care plan for your skin health.   The basis of any custom care plan takes skin type, age, degree of sun damage and time of year as well as geographical location into account.  Sun protection with zinc and titanium dioxide, gentle moisturizers, potent antioxidants and custom exfoliants are incorporated into a regimen.  Retin-A,and collagen building peptide and antioxidant essential we will products such as Rescue MD DNA Repair Complex.  The combination of all of these techniques can result in a comprehensive program that results in the lasting, natural result

  • Fat Grafting  

For over 15 years, Dr. Suzman has been a leader in fat grafting procedures to restore volume naturally.  Using gentle liposuction from one area such as the abdomen or thigh, the fat filtered and concentrated and carefully injected into wrinkles and volume loss areas of the face to create a long-lasting, completely natural rejuvenation results.  skin pulling alone is not enough to create a natural, long-lasting facelift result.  Only with the skilled addition of volume by fat grafting with macro fat and nanofat, can a natural look be achieved that does not distort the mouth, cheek or eyelid areas when performing a facelift.   Fat grafting can also be done as an office procedure without general anesthesia.
