While the facelift candidates are increasing in numbers, so are the treatment options available today. Threadlifts, featherlifts, and numerous non-ablative options have become increasingly more popular because they suggest fewer risks than surgery and less downtime, all the while promising parallel results.
Dr. Patrick Carney has performed and studied all of the above and has found that both he and his patients have found his “Local Lift”, a facelift under local anesthesia, to provide the utmost dramatic and rewarding results today. It offers complete correction, yet eliminates the anxiety and expense of major surgery.
Is the "Local Lift" a Threadlift?
Dr. Carney provides the threadlift on a rare occasion where the Local Lift may not be quite necessary. However, it does not provide the longevity, dramatic outcome, nor exceed the expectations that the “Local Lift” offers.
What is a facelift, or "Local Lift"?
The 'Local Lift' provides an overall lift to the lower third of the face by tightening loose skin in the jowls, neck, and jawline. A facelift is often done in combination with eyelid surgery, and may be enhanced with Botox®, Thermage™, and dermal fillers.
