All About Facelifts (Post-Op Part 2): Linda at 1 Week Post-Op
About this episode
Considering a facelift or facial rejuvenation procedure but not feeling informed enough? In this 9-part series, Board Certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Thomas Buonassisi of Vancouver, Canada discusses everything you need to know about facelifts—from facial anatomy basics, to the post-op recovery process, to a discussion of the unprecedented deep plane facelift technique that he performs regularly alongside less than 5% of other surgeons.
In this bonus episode captured during a post-op appointment from patient Linda's facelift surgery experience, Dr. Buonassisi has her in for a follow-up appointment to check in with how things are going 1 week after having her surgery. He goes over:
→ A summary of Linda's deep plane facelift and neck lift surgical plan again,
→ The results of Linda's post-op assessment for hematomas, facial nerve injuries, and any other possible complications,
→ A check-in to see how her first week after surgery went,
→ Clarification of expectations in regards to how she should be healing at this point and the rest of the timeline for healing,
→ Answers to Linda's questions regarding her facelift dressing.
