What is a Facelift?
Your face is the most conspicuous and visible part of the body, and signs of aging can start showing at the earliest on the face. Skin laxity may start becoming visible in the cheek region, forehead and neck, and wrinkles, creases, folds, and fine lines may make a person appear older than he or she really may be. Facelift plastic surgeryprocedure is specifically designed for such patients who are keen to reduce the signs of aging from the face and achieve a rejuvenated facial appearance for the long term.
In some cases, the cosmetic surgeon may decide to combine a facelift with a neck lift in order to achieve more consistent and comprehensive outcomes. The procedure can typically take seven to 10 years off the patient’s face. A facelift can help tighten the lax skin on the lower and mid face, while a neck lift will improve the laxity in the neck area. The procedure involves removal of excess skin and tightening of underlying facial and neck muscles.
Initial Consultation
During the initial consultation for facelift cosmetic surgery for his patients in and around Newport Beach and Orange County, CA, Dr. Seify will first evaluate the patient’s general health condition, medical history and aesthetic goals. He may recommend facelift or other treatment options and help the patient make a well-informed decision in accordance with his or her aesthetic goals.
An experienced plastic surgeon will also show before and after pictures of previous patients that can reveal what a facelift can or cannot do. This helps a patient have realistic expectations from the procedure and achieve the best possible satisfaction levels from the outcome.
Pre-op Instructions
The surgeon will advise the patient to quit smoking several weeks prior to the procedure. If the patient takes medications such as aspirin, the surgeon will require these medications to be stopped for a few weeks before surgery in consultation with the physician. Some antibiotic drugs may be prescribed to minimize the chances of any infection during or after surgery. The facelift procedure may involve shaving a tiny amount of hair around the ears and temples prior to surgery.
Procedure
A facelift procedure is usually performed under general anesthesia to ensure complete patient comfort. Surgical incisions are made inside the hairline at the temple in a discreet way, and also in front of the ear, around the earlobe and behind the ear, ending at the scalp. Through the incisions, the plastic surgeon will tighten loose muscles and connective tissue, and remove excess skin. If the procedure is performed in conjunction with neck lift, an additional incision will be made under the chin to contour the neck.
Once the surgery is completed, the incisions will be closed with small sutures. The entire procedure may last for up to five hours, depending on whether the facelift is performed as an independent surgery or in combination with other procedures. As an experienced cosmetic surgeon for facelift, Dr. Seify customizes the treatment approach in accordance with the unique needs of a patient. This helps achieve more effective and satisfactory results as per the patient’s expectations.
Recovery
Dr. Seify may recommend his patients in and around Newport Beach and Orange County, CA to stay at the facility’s overnight suite. Alternatively, the patient should arrange for someone to drive them to home on the same day and stay with them for at least the first 24 hours. The patient will have a dressing wrapped around the head initially, and surgical drains may or may not be attached. These are usually removed within 24 hours.
Stitches around the ears and scalp sutures are removed within a week or 10 days. Sutures are generally removed in stages to minimize scarring. Swelling and discoloration of skin in the affected area will reduce in about two weeks. Face may feel tight for several weeks, which will go away on its own. Dr. Seify recommends his patients to avoid sun exposure for several weeks following the facelift plastic surgery.

Botox’s FDA Approval
Patients in Newport Beach, CA, who are keen to reduce the signs of aging from their face without surgery, now have some good news. They can receive Botox treatment to reduce the appearance of crow’s feet as the treatment has now been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). FDA had approved Botox for cosmetic treatment of frown lines on the forehead in 2002.
Now finally in 2013, it has given approval to Botox for the treatment of crow’s feet as well. These approvals are apart from the approvals that FDA has given to Botox over the last several years for the treatment of various medical conditions. These include treatment for chronic headaches and migraines, excessive underarm sweating, and involuntary eyelid spasms. Botox treatment, whether cosmetic or medical, should ideally be received by a qualified cosmetic surgeon or another certified Botox provider.
Why Choose Botox?
Botox is produced from botulinum neurotoxin, which is a powerful biological substance discovered nearly a century ago. For several decades the toxin was tested by scientists to evaluate its medical and cosmetic benefits. Eventually it received approvals from FDA, and quickly became one of the most popular non-surgical anti-aging treatments in the world.
Botox is an excellent option for patients who are either unwilling or unable to choose full or partial facelift plastic surgery. The results with surgery are longer lasting, while Botox can only provide temporary benefits. But Botox has the following advantages that make it a popular treatment option:
Treatment is quick, safe and simple, involving no incisions.
Treatment does not involve general anesthesia or sedation.
An entire Botox session can be completed within 15 minutes to one hour, depending on the extent of treatment.
Botox treatment does not involve any downtime, and the patient may even go back to work immediately.
Results are visible almost instantly.
Treatment involves minimal or no pain and discomfort during or after the procedure.
Typical risks and complications associated with a surgery are avoided with Botox.
Treatment can be repeated for extended benefits.
Botox for Reduction of Crow’s Feet
Lateral canthal lines or crow’s feet are fine lines that radiate from the far outside corner of the eyes. These lines become more visible when a person smiles because the act of smiling makes the muscles in that area more active. As a result, the skin in that area develops a natural fold as the underlying muscle contracts. The more frequently a person smiles, the more frequently the skin fold occurs. The impact of crow’s feet increases with age because the skin loses its elasticity gradually with aging.
Crow’s feet can be removed or reduced with cosmetic surgery, but Botox is an equally effective non-surgical alternative, although its results will last only for about three to six months. Botox medication is injected directly into the targeted muscle that has become overactive and is causing the formation of wrinkles. The toxin works instantly to block the neural pathways and effectively prevents the muscle from contracting. As the muscle remains paralyzed even when the person is smiling, the skin appears smooth.
Botox Testing for Crow’s Feet
Botox achieved the FDA approval for reduction of crow’s feet after several tests and trials, including an extensive study of Botox involving two large groups of adult participants. The study was conducted by Allergan, Inc., the drug’s Irvine, CA based manufacturer. One of the groups, comprising 833 adults, was randomly chosen to receive a placebo injection of Botox.
This group showed a marked reduction in the appearance of crow’s feet following treatment when compared to the other group that did not receive the treatment. Following FDA’s approval, patients in Newport Beach, CA may now receive Botox treatments for crow’s feet from a qualified plastic surgeon or a certified Botox provider to safe and effective outcomes.
FDA Warning
Botox labels carry an FDA warning stating that the toxin’s effects can spread to other areas of the body from the area of injection, causing symptoms of botulism. However, the FDA also says that there has not been an occurrence of a confirmed serious case of this nature when Botox is administered in recommended doses by a qualified provider.
Review all of Dr. Seify’s Procedures and Treatments:
Dr. H.M. Seify is a board certified plastic surgeon providing a wide range of reconstructive and cosmetic surgery procedures in Newport Beach, CA. He is also appointed as an Assistant Clinical Professor at the UCLA School of Medicine. In 2007, he won the Sherrell Aston Award-American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.
Many patients of Dr. Seify in Newport Beach, CA, who are considering treatment from a cosmetic surgeon for the first time, are concerned about how much a particular surgical or non-surgical cosmetic procedure will cost. Dr. Seify addresses their concerns related to the procedure and the estimated costs in detail in order to help them make informed choices.
Is Plastic Surgery Expensive?
One of the common questions that any new patient usually asks is whether plastic or cosmetic surgery is an expensive treatment? The answer to this question can be highly subjective because the cost of each surgical procedure may vary. Even within the same procedure, the cost may vary from one geographical region to another and from one plastic surgery practice to another. With so many variations involved, sometimes it can be overwhelming for a patient to determine what how to obtain the best value for money for an elective surgery procedure.
Firstly, it is important to understand that plastic surgery is just like any other surgical procedure, and is likely to involve similar costs of treatment as any other medical surgery. Therefore, it is not something that is going to be exceptionally expensive. One of the key issues with any elective surgery is that the procedure may not be covered by the health insurance policy. That gives rise to the perception that the procedure is costly because it must be paid out of the patient’s pocket. Many plastic surgeons provide support in terms of financing of the treatment to help patients undergo the procedure of their choice.
Factors that Affect the Cost
The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery advises that patients should consider all the cost components associated with a procedure. This will help them plan their finances properly well in advance before they go ahead with a surgical procedure.
Geographical Location
The cost of a cosmetic surgery procedure will firstly depend on the geographical area where the practice is located. The cost is primarily in line with the average cost of living in a particular state or city. Average incomes of people are usually in proportion to the cost of living in a region, which allows people in that region to afford the cost of treatment.
Surgeon’s Fee
Any expense that is related to health, well-being and physical appearance of an individual should not be seen only from a cost perspective. A qualified, experienced, highly skilled, and renowned plastic surgeon is likely to cost more in terms of fee. But the cost will be long forgotten, and the benefits will continue to accrue for years. On the other hand, a poorly performed procedure may cause constant dissatisfaction, and may even lead to more spending in terms of a revision surgery.
Other Costs
Cost of the hospital or the surgical facility where the cosmetic surgeon performs the procedure will make a difference. The facilities, equipment, technical support and the quality and experience of the staff and services influence the cost of a procedure. Another important component is the cost of anesthesia. Patients should also include an estimate of the cost of prescription drugs, cost of post-surgical garments, and cost of laboratory tests and evaluations that may be involved with the procedure.
Costs Vary for Different Procedures
Plastic surgery, whether it is performed in Newport Beach, CA or another location, and whether it is performed at an advanced, state of the art hospital facility or a less expensive practice, will also differ in terms of costs according to the nature of the operation. Some procedures such as breast lift, butt lift, brow lift, lip augmentation, eyelid lift, rhinoplasty, or ear surgery may be relatively lesser expensive because they are focused only on a single part of the face or body.
Similarly, partial procedures such as a partial facelift or mini tummy tuck may be less expensive compared to a full-fledged surgery. Liposuction, for instance, may usually cost more than a minor cosmetic procedure, but less than an extensive surgery such as breast augmentation with lift, or tummy tuck procedure. A comprehensive undertaking such as a mommy makeover may cost more because it involves multiple surgeries. Patients may also consider non-invasive or minimally invasive treatment options that are usually more affordable than going under the knife.
Review all of Dr. Seify’s Procedures and Treatments:
Have you been thinking about doing a cosmetic surgery procedure but do not know where to start? Do you search online? Get some referrals or recommendations? Choosing the right plastic surgeon takes a lot of time and it can be confusing when weeding out the good ones from the bad ones. Doing research for the perfect plastic surgeon can be daunting and overwhelming, but an article from the Health News Digest broke it down to six questions you should ask when considering cosmetic surgery.
Things You Should Ask When Searching for a Potential Plastic Surgeon
“Who’s your surgeon?
Personal recommendations are important. Ask friends for referrals if they have gotten a similar procedure. Get opinions from your family doctor and other doctor acquaintances. Surgical technicians and operating room nurses are an excellent source for information about a surgeon’s skill in the operating room.
What is the surgeon’s area of expertise?
Ask what kind of training the doctor has in the specific procedure you’re considering – you don’t want someone whose only training was a one-day or weekend course.
How often have you done this procedure?
It seems obvious that nobody would want to be any surgeon’s first liposuction. Ideally, your doctor has done the same procedure hundreds of times, over many years.
What are to potential risks and complications?
Every surgery carries some risk, some of which are common to all surgery. The most serious risks usually have to do with excessive blood loss, infection, or adverse reactions to general anesthesia. There are some procedures that are riskier than others, although recent advances continue to make complications more and more unlikely. Since plastic surgery is elective, surgeons will usually refuse to operate on any patient for whom they feel the risk is too great.
Do you have hospital privileges?
Even if you’re having a plastic surgery procedure at an outpatient clinic, it’s worth asking where the doctor has hospital privileges, because hospitals do background checks. Plus, this could become very important if anything unexpected should occur during your procedure, and you were to need to be transported to a hospital.
Are you allowed to see before and after pictures of other patients?
It is vital to see many before and after photos from your plastic surgeon in order to evaluate the work that he or she has performed. These photos should subsequently be placed either on the doctor’s web site in galleries or albums in order for patients to review during consultation. Also, make sure to ask if the photos shown to you are pictures of actual patients of that particular surgeon and not stock images.”
Also, one red flag would be if a plastic surgeon takes you in immediately as a patient and didn’t take the time to ask about your medical history. Another is if you propose something that is complicated or unrealistic and the surgeon will automatically consent instead turning you down or offering alternatives.
Dr. Seify Can Help You with Those Questions
With Dr. Seify, he takes great care to answer any questions and concerns to make sure we are the right fit for a potential patient. We like to build a great rapport with each patient and are aware that we have to treat each patient individually. If you want to see if we can be the right choice, call Dr. Seify to set up an appointment for a consultation.
Dr. H.M. Seify is an experienced, board certified plastic surgeon, specializing in aesthetic as well as reconstructive surgeries. He provides a comprehensive range of cosmetic surgery procedures to his patients in and around Newport Beach, CA. Innovations and technological advancements in the field of plastic surgery have encouraged a lot more people to consider these treatments to enhance their physical appearance. Safety and effectiveness of many procedures has improved due to new surgical techniques and better technologies.
Apart from the rise in the number of patients looking for surgical treatment to improve their physical appearance, there also appears to be a new segment of working women who seek treatment from a cosmetic surgeon for the sake of their jobs and careers. There seems to be a growing belief among a section of women that cosmetic enhancement of their looks can help improve their competitiveness at the workplace. In Dr. Seify’s experience, there are women in Newport Beach, CA who are specifically interested in cosmetic treatment to improve their chances of success in their careers.
Linking Cosmetic Surgery with Career Success
There is no evidence to suggest that any kind of discrimination may exist at the workplace on the basis of how an employee looks. However, there is plenty of feedback and anecdotal evidence from working women themselves that reveals their inherent belief that looks do matter in every sphere of life, including the place of work. Women have spoken about it openly in interviews on television and print publications in recent years. They have talked about how they feel more reassured and self-confident at the workplace when they are looking attractive and youthful.
Plastic surgery is no magic pill to boost a woman’s career prospects. But it may provide that extra psychological support and confidence to some women who tend to perform better when they feel good about their own personality and appearance. Working women are usually looking to improve their vibrancy and freshness, and not necessarily having a desire to enhance their facial features, figure or other beauty points. In fact, they make it clear to the cosmetic surgeon in many cases that they are not keen on a dramatic change or a ‘plastic’ appearance, but just subtle improvements in their face and body.
Non-invasive and Minimally Invasive Options
For women in Newport Beach, CA and other places, surgical treatments are still the first choice in many cases. However, with a spate of FDA approvals for innovative non-invasive and minimally invasive cosmetic treatments in recent decades, there is an increasing level of demand for these procedures. Some of the popular non-surgical procedures include cosmetic facial fillers, Botox, chemical peels, laser skin rejuvenation, and treatments based on ultrasound, radio frequency, thermal, and fat freezing technologies.
Plastic surgeons are providing these treatments, particularly because of the advantages of these treatments for working women. These treatments involve minimal or no downtime and the results are more under-stated than surgery in many cases. These fit in with the needs of a busy working woman who is looking for a simple and swift cosmetic solution to make her appear more youthful.
Cosmetic Surgeries for Working Women
Working women in the middle age group are usually more inclined in favor of surgical treatments because they are looking for more effective and longer lasting outcomes. They may not be interested in major procedures such as breast implants, tummy tuck or facelift, unless their figure needs a substantial improvement. They may seek less invasive cosmetic surgery procedures such as mini tummy tuck, partial facelift or forehead lift, liposuction and breast lift.
Working women, in many cases, do not wish to be perceived as “old” in comparison to their peers, and they are looking for procedures that can somehow freeze or delay the progression of their signs of aging. Even when they seek a facelift procedure, they may ask the surgeon to retain the wrinkles, but only soften their impression rather than giving them a dramatic facial makeover.
Plastic Surgery and Job Economy
A survey compiled by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) in 2009 showed a clear linkage between cosmetic treatments for working women and the general economic conditions. The study involved 756 women in the 18 to 64 age group, who were overwhelmingly of an opinion that looks can have an impact on their competitiveness at the place of work. 73 percent of respondents in the study said that youthful appearance can help in obtaining that coveted position or any position at all, acquiring a promotion, or picking up new customers for the business which always makes the supervisor happy.

Brighter Tomorrow
After going through my nose surgery, I had expected to be “out for the count” for at least 4-5 months, however, I was able to play sports, surf, and enjoy an active life of an everyday teen within two months. Although it was a serious surgery, I was able to heal and get back to my usual routines in a reasonable amount of time. The nose is very fragile and hard to correct, but with the proper surgery and recovery procedures it can be done successfully.

Procedures at Dr. Seify’s Practice
Newport Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery in Newport Beach, CA provides a comprehensive range of surgical as well as non-surgical treatments. Some of the key procedures available at the practice include the following:
Body Contouring

In some cases, the breast volume may be good, but the breasts may sag heavily with nipples pointing downwards.

Review all of Dr. Seify’s Procedures and Treatments:
Back then plastic surgery clientele was mostly of the rich and famous, but plastic surgery procedures have become more accessible for people with normal, not-as-glamorous lifestyles. For new mommies, giving birth to a new life can be a beautiful thing, but it is inevitable that pregnancy changes the body – often with undesirable results. According to a plastic surgeon in Andrew Walker’s article for The Baltimore Sun, “Lifestyle changes, including fashions that are less forgiving and active mothers who are more aware of their appearance, have driven the growth to such procedures over the past decade.” Most of the mommy makeovers consisted of breast augmentation, tummy tucks and liposuction. The article continues with statistics that “breast augmentations have increased 35 percent in the past decade, breast lifts by 69 percent and tummy tucks by 70 percent, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.”
Cosmetic Procedures For Mommies
While some women have more skin elasticity than others, most are not as lucky to bounce back to their pre-pregnancy bodies like the Hollywood stars. Breasts and abdominal areas sag after giving birth which diet and exercise cannot rectify. For those who had the mommy makeovers, some said “their clothes fit better and they no longer obsess over flaws. They said it was something they wanted for themselves and nothing their husbands, or anyone else, encourage.” But these mommy makeovers are about realistic results and some “cosmetic surgeons have said they wouldn’t take patients who have unrealistic expectations or have health problems that might make surgery dangerous.” Some moms even hold out to have the procedures until the kids have grown older and are more financially secure when recovery time and the costs come into consideration.
Thinking About Doing a Procedure After a Kid or Two…or More with Dr. Seify?
The above procedures mentioned are procedures Dr. Seify specializes in. He can take your concerns into consideration and give you that “mommy makeover” you have always wanted. Sagging breasts after done breastfeeding? He can help with a breast augmentation or breast lift. Overstretched skin around the abdominal area? He is an expert with tummy tuck procedures that results in a smoother, flatter abdomen. Dr. Seify can consult with you to let you know what goes on in the procedure and what to expect post-surgery (i.e. recovery time and what activities are restricted). If you are considering giving yourself a “mommy makeover,” call to make an appointment for a consultation with Dr. Seify.
