What Is a Facelift & Neck Lift?
A facelift — medically known as a rhytidectomy — is a surgical procedure that addresses moderate to advanced signs of facial aging by lifting and repositioning the underlying facial muscles and tissues (SMAS layer), removing excess skin, and re-draping the skin for a smoother, firmer, and more youthful facial contour. A neck lift is typically performed in conjunction with a facelift to simultaneously address sagging neck skin, platysmal banding, and loss of jawline definition — providing a complete lower face and neck transformation.
At Adanna Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills, CA, Dr. Williams performs modern facelift techniques that focus on addressing the deeper structural layers of the face — not just the skin surface. This approach produces results that are longer-lasting and look far more natural than older skin-only techniques. The goal at Adanna Plastic Surgery is always a refreshed, rested appearance that preserves your natural expressions and uniquely beautiful features.
Who Is a Good Candidate for a Facelift & Neck Lift?
Ideal candidates for facelift and neck lift surgery at Adanna Plastic Surgery are generally adults in good overall health who are experiencing moderate to significant signs of facial aging, including jowling (sagging along the jawline), deep nasolabial folds (smile lines) and marionette lines, loss of definition between the jaw and neck, sagging or loose neck skin, platysmal banding (vertical neck cords), a heavy or drooping lower face, and overall facial volume redistribution and descent. Most facelift patients at Adanna Plastic Surgery are in their 40s to 70s, though the best candidate is determined by degree of aging rather than age alone. Dr. Williams will evaluate your skin quality, bone structure, and overall health during your personalized consultation.
Modern Facelift Techniques at Adanna Plastic Surgery
At Adanna Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills, Dr. Williams uses modern, deep-plane and SMAS-based facelift techniques that address the foundational structural layers of the face for longer-lasting, more natural results:
SMAS Facelift: The superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) is the deeper facial tissue layer beneath the skin. By lifting and repositioning the SMAS — rather than simply pulling on the skin — this technique produces a more natural, long-lasting result with less skin tension and a reduced risk of the “windswept” or overly tight appearance.
Deep Plane Facelift: A more advanced technique that releases the ligamentous attachments of the face and repositions the deeper facial fat compartments along with the SMAS in a single layer. This approach delivers exceptionally natural, comprehensive results — particularly for patients with advanced facial aging or heavy jowling.
Mini Facelift: A shorter-scar, less extensive procedure appropriate for patients with early to mild facial aging who desire rejuvenation of the lower face and jawline with a faster recovery. Dr. Williams will recommend whether a mini or full facelift is appropriate for your anatomy and goals during your consultation.
Facelift & Neck Lift Recovery in Beverly Hills
After your facelift and neck lift at Adanna Plastic Surgery, you will experience swelling, bruising, and some tightness in the face and neck for one to three weeks. Drainage tubes may be placed for the first day or two. Most patients feel comfortable returning to social activities within two to three weeks, though some residual swelling may persist for several weeks longer. Full healing and final result visibility typically occur at three to six months as all swelling resolves and the tissues settle into their new position.
Facelift results at Adanna Plastic Surgery are long-lasting — most patients enjoy their refreshed appearance for seven to ten years or more. Non-surgical treatments such as neurotoxins (Botox/Dysport), Sculptra, and HA fillers can be used as part of an ongoing maintenance plan to extend and complement your surgical results.
Combining a Facelift with Other Facial Procedures
A facelift at Adanna Plastic Surgery is frequently combined with complementary facial procedures for a more comprehensive rejuvenation. Popular combinations include pairing a facelift with eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) to address both the lower and upper face simultaneously, with a brow lift & forehead lift for comprehensive upper and lower face rejuvenation, or with facial fat grafting & contouring to restore volume simultaneously with structural lifting. Your surgeon will discuss the most appropriate combination plan for your individual goals.

Facelift & Neck Lift FAQs — Beverly Hills, CA
What is the difference between a facelift and a neck lift?
A facelift at Adanna Plastic Surgery primarily addresses the lower face and mid-face — lifting jowls, smoothing nasolabial folds, and restoring jawline definition. A neck lift targets the neck and under-chin area — tightening loose neck skin, addressing platysmal banding, and refining the jaw-to-neck transition. Most patients benefit from both procedures performed together for a harmonious, complete result.
How long do facelift results last?
Facelift and neck lift results at Adanna Plastic Surgery are long-lasting — most patients enjoy their rejuvenated appearance for seven to ten years or more. Natural aging continues after surgery, but the structural improvements made during a facelift are durable. Non-surgical maintenance treatments can help extend and preserve results.
Will my facelift look natural?
At Adanna Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills, natural-looking results are always the goal. Dr. Williams uses modern, deep-tissue facelift techniques that address the underlying structural layers of the face — not just the skin — producing a refreshed, well-rested appearance that preserves your natural expressions without an overdone or pulled look.
How long is facelift recovery?
Most patients at Adanna Plastic Surgery feel comfortable returning to social activities within two to three weeks. Initial swelling and bruising resolve significantly within the first two weeks. Final results become fully visible at three to six months as all residual swelling resolves and tissues settle.
Am I too young or too old for a facelift?
The best facelift candidate is determined by the degree of facial aging rather than chronological age. Most facelift patients at Adanna Plastic Surgery are in their 40s to 70s, though some younger patients with significant aging may benefit earlier, and well-preserved older patients may also be excellent candidates. Dr. Williams evaluates every patient individually during your consultation.
Can a facelift be combined with other facial procedures?
Yes — facelift surgery is frequently combined with eyelid surgery, brow lift, or facial fat grafting at Adanna Plastic Surgery for more comprehensive facial rejuvenation in a single surgical session.
