If you have decided that you want a facelift, you should know there are some important precautions you should take before giving the go-ahead for someone to do surgery on your face. Rushing through the process is not a good idea.
Your first priority is to find a plastic surgeon with a good reputation for being an expert in his or her field, great with his or her hands and for being trustworthy. Choose someone who is a member of the ASPS. These surgeons have to have at least five years of surgical experience and at least two years of plastic surgery experience. They are trained in every type of procedure, practice in accredited facilities, continue to educate themselves and are board certified by the ABPS - American Board of Plastic Surgery.
For your initial consultation, your surgeon will get some background about your health, discuss your options with you, take measurements, get a picture for your records, tell you about the risks and complications and give you information about the anesthesia they will be using.
Before You Go in for Surgery
Get an okay from your family physician. Your doctor should run some tests to be sure that you don't have an underlying condition that could complicate your facelift surgery.
Either take certain kinds of medications, stop taking some medications, or change how you take your prescriptions. (As suggested by your doctor(s))
Do not have this surgery if you smoke. If you do smoke right now, quit a month or more prior to having the surgery. This is important because those who smoke often experience necrosis - the skin literally dies.
Do not take anti-inflammatory drugs or any herbal supplements.
Every instruction given to you by your doctor should be carefully followed.
Post Surgery
Follow your doctor's instructions and expect to be recovering for a few weeks. It can take months before the swelling is gone completely.
When you go out in the sun, stay well protected. What good does it do to have surgery to look younger and then go out and let the sun age your skin?
Watch for any signs of complications. Keep the paper the doctor gave you that tells about complications and if you think you might have a problem, get in touch with the surgeon.
