Everything You Need to Know About Facelifts - Part 1 - Beauty and the Surgeon Episode 155

It's gonna take two episodes to tell you everything you need to know about getting a facelift! In part one Dr. Martin and Amy go over what a facelift can and can't do, the different types of facelifts, who’s a candidate, and questions to ask your surgeon at your pre-surgery appointments.
Questions for your surgeon at your consultation:
Are you certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery?
Am I a good candidate for this procedure?
What surgical technique is recommended for me?
Where and how will you perform my surgery?
What are the risks and potential complications with a facelift?
How are complications handled?
How can I expect my face to look/age over time?
Questions for your surgeon at your preop:
Where will I be taken after surgery? Overnight stay?
What medication will I be given or prescribed?
Will I have dressings/bandages when I leave the hospital?
When will they be removed?
When will the drains and stitches be removed?
When can I wash my face, shower, wash my hair?
When can I cut/color my hair?
