Should I Have A Facelift Before or After Jaw Implant Surgery?
Q: Dr. Eppley, Good day. Would it be advisable to do jaw implant surgery before or after a deep plane neck and face lift?
A:I would definitely advise doing jaw implant surgery before any type of facelift procedure. This is due to the swelling that results from the placement of the implant which can have a negative effect on the face and neck tightening results from a facelift procedure. There are some rare indications for during a jaw implant and facelift surgery together but how that may apply to you I would not know without some additional information such as pictures and your surgical goals from which I can make an assessment.
