How long does the surgical result last?
The surgery will rejuvenate the facial appearance and will have an immediate effect. The duration of the result will depend upon the tissue type of the person. For example, the result can last longer if the tissue is thinner rather than fuller . In every case, the result will be a younger, rejuvenated, more relaxed look. The surgery does not stop you from aging, but the appearance will still look younger than many of your acquaintances over the years. The result should be natural and refreshing. The patient should be interested in maintaining their appearance with good skin care, sunscreens and minor non-surgical procedures such as Botox and tissue fillers. Dr. Wittenberg can discuss realistic expectations with you.
