https://lesavoyplasticsurgery.com  Let's talk Coachella Valley I'm Conrad Negron with Tina Marks your host for fun show informative show and welcome back for another amazing episode with Dr Malcolm Lesavoy, five times uh board certified plastic surgeon today we're going to be talking about facelifts and I brought my oldest and dearest friend Deborah to the show she's going to be our demonstration along with myself.  Deb why don't you go ahead and tell Dr Lesavoy what your problem are, what you've had done and what your what your concerns are okay well my problem Mary is the gel and probably the neckline down here I have had a little Botox  they gave me some Sculptra to supposedly pull the jowl line back which didn't necessarily work and then I've had Juvederm and Restylane and the newest filler which is Restylane silk for some reason this last time I had the fillers it didn't take I have the lines here and then I have an extra line down here and one line that goes sideways. if you have a dent why would a doctor say that I mean I guess that we could do a whole show I'm Not My Brother's Keeper or My Sister's Keeper for that matter but but the feeling is uh that if if one fills in in one particular area it takes away from the visual effect of another area and in that sense it may okay but just assume that a filler is like if you have a dent in this in this ceramic right here and we take some epoxy we put it in it fills it in that's all it does it doesn't move this disc in any way if if you have extra stuff and if you just lower your chin just a little bit so it's in neutral and we're looking at some of this stuff here this can just be pulled back very nicely and give you a very nice uh neck profile just with an incision behind the ears and the the jowl areas here instead of putting uh fillers into this area I would do a little liposuction just right here interesting to just bring this back to to flatten that just a little bit because gravity plays on all of us I mean we we have no control unless we walk on our hands upside down and so this particular area is ideal for a tiny little bit of liposuction some compression and it's not that we're taking a lot of stuff out what we're doing is basically roughening up the under surface of the skin and the lower surface where the skin attaches to to allow it to really stick down and to flatten this area out and if there's too much then we can remove the skin just by doing a a minor lower facelift so we're in you that's what I was getting when you do the liposuction where do you do the incision the incision is behind the earlobe oh okay so it's a tiny two three millimeter inches so you would start with the liposuction and then if you still weren't happy then you would go ahead and do a lower face and less is more you don't want to look fake I know in my opinion if somebody if you see somebody afterwards after I do this Little Neck or facelift and somebody says what you know did you just change your hair did you right because I can't tell did you used to have blonde hair and now you have black hair you know that kind of thing but I can't tell you look healthy exactly diet you're working out more is your husband treating you better or not you know oh okay so I mean that's the whole key the key is natural not not fake well absolutely I do believe in that.  Now we're doing all this under local that's what I was just going to bring up it's local anesthesia you're not completely under it's done with the Valium with a little a little oral Valium for Sedation okay and some local anime anesthesia and the local instead I can get your entire face numb in less than 30 seconds and how long does this process take the surgery itself is about an hour hour and a half and you go home and it takes about 10 days or two weeks to really heal a good face look and this is the same facelift I've been doing for many many years there's no shortcuts at all it's just that we're not now not using general anesthesia you don't have to go to the hospital and stay overnight you go home but a lot of surgeons are still using anesthesia and anesthesia is very uh that's the key it's very dangerous for your body is it true that it takes a year to to get out of your body. So you do upper eyelids, lower eyelids, full face, lips, lower face lifts, you do everything. So anybody that's looking to get a facelift have any questions consultation please uh contact Dr Malcolm Lesavoy so wonderful having you on the show and um thanks for coming you're welcome thank you very much
