Facelift on the Cutting Edge w/ Dr. Sherrell Aston

Park Avenue Plastic Surgery Class

Facelift surgery has come a long way since the 1980’s, amplifying the degree of correction and preserving a natural look. Dr. Sherrell Aston, a leader in facelifting, joins Dr. Bass to discuss the evolution of facelift techniques and how they are customized to each patient.

In the last 40 years, the focus has moved from lifting the skin to altering the underlying foundation, removing excess skin, and redraping over a changed foundation in the face, cheeks, neck, and jawline.

Today, the facelift is often combined with other treatments for well-rounded, dramatic, long-lasting results. It can be complemented with fat transfer into areas of the face with lost volume, or radio frequency technology such as FaceTite or AccuTite or Morpheus8 to improve the quality of skin.

While the facelift/necklift is the gold standard for facial rejuvenation, there’s not a single best technique for how that procedure is performed. The approach is customized to every patient not cookie cutter. Hear about current controversies in facelift technique from the experts.

Learn more about the various facelift techniques Drs. Bass and Aston use regularly, in what circumstances they find a mini facelift or neck lift alone to deliver meaningful results, and why they advise against getting continuous filler treatments when it’s time for surgery.
