57 year-old Chicagoland female had a short scar facelift in Downers Grove, IL*

A female patient underwent Short Scar Facelift and Microfat grafting to the face in July 2024 at our accredited facility in Downers Grove, IL, performed by Dr. Robert J. Paresi Jr. The patient had a previous facelift by another doctor which did not address her neck bands, jowls, or loss of cheek volume. The patient had a secondary facelift under general anesthesia with microfat grafting to the cheeks, nasolabial folds, and corners of the mouth. A corset platysmaplasty of the neck was performed to correct the platysmal banding. We also used platelet rich plasma (PRP) and tranexamic acid (TXA) for the procedure to decrease the postoperative bruising and swelling. At three months postoperatively, the patient expressed satisfaction with the results, highlighting an enhanced facial contour and rejuvenated appearance. The combination of the two procedures seemed to have achieved the desired outcome, leaving the patient pleased with the outcome and the care provided by the medical team.
