After my facelift, will I have problems eating?

Posted by Dr. Schoenfeld

Question: After my facelift, will I have problems eating? Answer: The first few days after your facelift, I place a relatively compressive dressing on your face to prevent accumulation of fluid beneath the newly elevated and treated facial skin. The dressing can be cumbersome and uncomfortable however, my facelift patients have not had any particular… [Read More]

Should I remove the scars from my facelift?

Posted by Dr. Schoenfeld

Question: I have a few small scars on my face from a facelift. Is it worth it to try to get them removed or will they just look worse? Answer: The location of the scars that you have from your facelift and how conspicuous these scars are would determine whether or not I recommend treating… [Read More]

How long is a typical blepharoplasty surgery?

Posted by Dr. Schoenfeld

Question: How long is a typical blepharoplasty surgery? Answer: A typical upper eyelid blepharoplasty should last under an hour. To answer the same question about a lower eyelid blepharoplasty is a bit more difficult. The lower lid blepharoplasty can take less than an hour if skin and muscle of the lower lid do not need… [Read More]

Do you remove nasal tissue during rhinoplasty?

Posted by Dr. Schoenfeld

Question: When you do a rhinoplasty on a long nose, are you literally removing nasal tissue? Does this affect breathing in the nose? Answer: Performing rhinoplasty on a long nose requires a bit more rhinoplasty surgical experience than a simple hump removal. If you think of the nose as a tripod, in order to decrease… [Read More]

Can I do chin implant and nose job simultaneously?

Posted by Dr. Schoenfeld

Question: I am a 36-year-old female who would like to have a chin implant and a nose job. Can I do these simultaneously? Should I wait to see what my nose looks like before I do work on my chin? Answer: I do not think it is necessary to wait to see how your rhinoplasty… [Read More]

Can a keloid scar from a facelift three years ago be fixed?

Posted by Dr. Schoenfeld

Question: I have keloid scars from my facelift three years ago. Can they be fixed? Answer: Keloid scars from a facelift are a difficult yet, treatable problem. My suspicion is that the tension on the facelift flap was too great at the incision sites resulting in keloid formation. After three years your surgeon can excise… [Read More]

What is the best facelift technique for improving jowls?

Posted by Dr. Schoenfeld

Question: What’s the best facelift technique for improving jowls? Answer: All facelifting techniques will improve the jowls. Each facelifting technique that I use involves elevation of the soft tissue of the face beneath the skin. This layer of tissue is referred to as the SMAS. Different facelifting techniques involve different methods of lifting the SMAS… [Read More]

How do you avoid an overly taut or pulled look from a facelift?

Posted by Dr. Schoenfeld

Question: How do you avoid an overly taut or pulled look from a facelift? Answer: I think that the days of an overly tightened appearance from a facelift are now behind us. During the first few months following your facelift you may feel that your skin is exceptionally tight, and it may in fact also… [Read More]

Does a brow lift give the eyebrows more arch?

Posted by Dr. Schoenfeld

Question: Is the brow lift able to give the eyebrows more arch? Answer: A brow lift procedure is not only used to elevate the eyebrows but, I am able to shape the eyebrows so that they are more esthetically appealing. Not all eyebrows look alike and many different shapes still look good on different people…. [Read More]

Can eyelid surgery make it harder to look in some directions?

Posted by Dr. Schoenfeld

Question: I’m 53, female, and I’m interested in eyelid surgery to help refresh my face without a face lift. I want to retain all of my ocular function. Since the surgery sometimes involves the removal of muscle around the eyes, can eyelid surgery make it harder to look in some directions? Answer: Cosmetic eyelid surgery… [Read More]
