What Is a QuickLift™?

For many patients in La Jolla, a facelift is needed to reduce tell-tale signs of aging such as loose skin and wrinkles on the lower face and jaw line. However, those who come to our offices for a consultation may be unaware that there is a mini facelift technique which has minimal downtime while still providing lasting results: the QuickLift™ Facelift.

HOW QUICKLIFT™ Is DIFFERENT

There are other so-called mini-facelifts out there, yet the QuickLift™ is the only one which adjusts the underlying face musculature for long-term results. Other mini-lifts only tighten the surface skin. Although this can provide short-term improvement for signs of aging, unless the supporting muscles underneath are tightened as well, the facelift will not have optimum results.

The QuickLift™ is performed as an outpatient procedure and takes just an hour or two. A small incision is made near each ear to keep any resultant scarring as inconspicuous as possible, while still providing sufficient access to facial muscle layers. Connective tissue and underlying musculature are tightened using a special suturing technique, lifting the upper neck and bringing new definition to the jaw line. Any excess skin is removed, and miniscule sutures are made under magnification to close the incision.

For those considering cosmetic surgery in La Jolla, a facelift doesn’t have to mean an extensive procedure and a long recovery. Instead, consider the QuickLift™ facelift for faster healing and great results.
