More Effective

Your Revision Facelift Procedure

Those considering a second operation often are afraid to have their results get worse. Dr. Cole's InsideOut™ endoscopic facelift is the solution; it's faster, less risky, and more effective than the conventional facelift. It is of note that 60% of Dr. Cole’s surgical schedule is repairing other surgeons poor surgical results—what Dr. Cole refers to as “rescue surgery.”

Both local and sedation anesthesia are used throughout the surgical procedure. When operating, Dr. Cole makes tiny incisions. These incisions are often less than an inch in length and are placed high on the hairline, inside the eyelid, or inside the mouth. A skinny, wand-like structure is inserted under the skin via these incisions. A little camera mounted on the inside of this endoscopic device gives Dr. Cole real-time visual feedback while he works. Then the facial muscles are molded and reconstructed to tighten the underlying tissues, and any excess fat is removed from problem areas of the face using small telescopic surgical devices. After the operation is finished, the incisions are sewn closed in a way that makes the stitches undetectable. As a result, it causes minimal discomfort and leaves no visible scars.

A Familiar Recovery

Revision Facelift Recovery and Aftercare

You can expect to have post-op discomfort and swelling similar to what you had after your initial facelift. Although the swelling won't go away entirely for a few months, you should start to observe improvements within a week or two. Most of the visible swelling should have subsided by month five.
