Welcome to Cosmetic Surgery Affiliates
Reverse Signs of Aging & Enhance Your Beauty
Aging affects us all as our bodies begin to produce less collagen, resulting in wrinkles, loose skin, and sagging jowls. Thanks to this aging process, many patients have multiple concerns that they wish could be addressed in a single treatment. At Cosmetic Surgery Affiliates, we offer facial surgery in Jacksonville to rejuvenate your entire face in just one procedure!
Facial surgery works by removing excess skin and redistributing fat while tightening the underlying tissue to diminish signs of aging. This procedure uses tiny, hidden incisions along the hairline and other natural contours of the face to reposition the tissue. We can combine facial surgery with a neck lift or other procedures for complete revitalization!

What to Expect
The Facial Surgery Process
1
Consultation
Your facial surgery procedure will start with a detailed consultation with our surgical team. During your initial consultation, your surgeon will determine if you’re a suitable candidate for surgery, and curate the ideal treatment plan for your specific needs. We will use this time to discuss your medical history, review your aesthetic goals and expectations, assess your physical signs of aging, and curate an ideal treatment plan based on your needs.
2
Your Procedure
A facelift may be performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the extent of your procedure. Your surgeon will make several small incisions along the natural lines of your face, such as the hairline, ear, or chin. Your surgeon will remove any excess skin and fat while repositioning the tissue for a lifted and tightened look. Once they’re finished, your surgeon will close up the incisions with stitches.
3
Your Results
Your surgery results will require healing to be fully appreciated, but the some of the changes will be immediately visible. Your surgeon works with the natural contours of your face to produce results that enhance your features and balance your facial symmetry. You can expect some bruising and swelling over the next few weeks after your facial surgery in Jacksonville. Most patients can resume light activities within a few weeks, but you should refrain from heavy lifting or strenuous activity for four to six weeks. Once the swelling has gone down, you’ll immediately notice the lifted and contoured effects on your face!
Pre-Treatment
Pre-Care Instructions
Prior to Your Facial Surgery in Jacksonville, Cosmetic Surgery Affiliates Recommends:
Avoid Certain Medications
We’ll review your medications and let you know which ones to avoid prior to surgery at your consultation.
Avoid Smoking and Alcohol
Smoking and alcohol consumption can inhibit your body’s blood flow and natural healing process.
Arrange Transportation
Because this surgery may involve general anesthesia, arrange for a driver to take you home after the procedure.
Post Treatment
Post-Care Instructions
Following Your Facial Surgery in Jacksonville, Cosmetic Surgery Affiliates Recommends:
No Ice
Do not ice the treatment area unless instructed by your provider. You may cool the area with a fan immediately after treatment to relieve any minor discomfort.
Avoid Sun Exposure
Avoid excessive sun exposure and wear SPF and protective clothing for the course of your treatment plan.
Clean the Area
Wait at least 4 hours to clean the treatment area, and only use gentle foaming cleansers, cool water, and your hands to avoid irritation.
No Excessive Sweating
Do not participate in strenuous exercise that may cause excessive sweating (including saunas and steaming) for at least 48 hours.
No Scratching/Picking
Do not pick at or scratch any scabs or dry skin; allow these to fall off and heal naturally. This will help you avoid scarring and prolonging the healing process.
