Understanding Facelift Terminology

  • Mini Facelift: Correction of facial aging from ear to chin
  • Full Facelift: Comprehensive facial aging correction from ear to mid-neck
  • Neck Lift: Targeted sagging correction under the chin
  • Forehead Lift: Addressing sagging in the brow area

Comprehensive Facial Aging Solutions

The facial aging process involves multiple factors, including sun exposure, environmental influences, and genetic predispositions. A facelift procedure (rhytidectomy) addresses these complex changes by removing excess tissue and strategically tightening facial muscles.

Ideal Candidates for Facial Rejuvenation

While patients between 40 and 60 are most common, Orange County Cosmetic & Reconstructive Surgery Center successfully performs facelifts for individuals in their 70s and 80s. Special medical considerations are carefully evaluated during personalized consultations.

Advanced Surgical Technique

The facelift procedure is an outpatient surgery performed under general anesthesia by a board-certified anesthesiologist. Surgeons strategically place incisions along natural facial contours to minimize visible scarring, ensuring precise tissue repositioning and muscle tightening.

Procedure Details

  • Surgical Duration: Approximately three hours
  • Anesthesia: General anesthesia
  • Incision Placement: Along natural ear and hairline contours
  • Recovery: Initial rest period in surgical center

Expected Outcomes

Patients can anticipate a refreshed, more youthful appearance that appears natural and subtle. The procedure effectively "resets" the aging process, providing long-lasting rejuvenation while maintaining individual facial characteristics.

Complementary Enhancements

Additional procedures may be recommended to optimize results, such as skin resurfacing, eyelid surgery, or forehead lifting. These complementary treatments can further enhance overall facial rejuvenation.

I am extremely pleased with my breast reconstruction surgery performed by Dr. Nguyen. His expertise and attention to detail are exceptional. As someone who is hard to please, I immediately felt confident in his abilities, and he delivered beyond my expectations. I highly recommend him for his excellent work and care. Thank you, Dr. Nguyen. - Margarita E.

My special thanks to this doctor! I had breast implants for 17 years and needed to have them removed. Dr. Thomas gave me a lot of confidence, the surgery went smoothly and the result was very good! I recommend this professional.🙏🏻

During my consultation, I was seen immediately and given a quote for rhinoplasty. For surgery and post surgery visits, I ended up waiting 30 minutes to 60 minutes before being seen. Information for post care and antibiotics all had to be requested instead given to me. When I got my tape (not cast) taken off, I started to notice a small bump inside my nose. I had many post visits where I would voice my concerns and Dr. Nguyen would just say, don’t worry, it will go away. Well, about 5 months later, the “small bump” resulted in the implant protruding out of the interior of my nose, leaving it painful and prone to infection. I called and had to keep calling to get an appointment and I had to, myself, request antibiotics again. After many phone calls and after I kept having to wait to hear back, I finally got an appointment to get it removed. The office treated the problem unprofessionally and did not compensate me. Money is their priority and throughout the entire process, their patients are put last. Would never recommend this place to my friends and family.

I just wanted to say I love Dr. Nguyen. I had silicone implants that were in my body over 25 years. They were a bit botched & I had old scar tissue that had formed through the years. I had just put it off for far too long. At my consultation he was very positive & explained all the procedures that he would do to make my breasts look great again. I am so happy with his expertise & love my breasts!!!

Awful services, after I checked with my insurance and this doctor was in network the office call me to asked if my insurance was with big corporations or individual because they ONLY accept big corporations. So how small business are going to take care of their health? I would never have anything to do we people or business either doctors that don't support small business.
