Asian Facelift: Information About Asian Facelift Procedures

Information About the Asian Facelift with New York’s Facial Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Andrew Jacono.

best asian facelift results nyc

Asian Facelift Surgery Results This beautiful 47-year-old patient at just 4 weeks post-surgery with Dr. Andrew Jacono. She wanted to look younger and more rejuvenated without looking overdone or fake.

Dr. Jacono performed a facelift using his deep plane technique combined with a neck lift, lateral temporal lift, buccal fat removal and a lip lift.

The deep plane lifts the cheeks to return them to their natural position and the buccal fat removal helped to create more contoured cheeks that were in balance with her other facial features. She looks breathtaking and more youthful.

The Asian facelift procedure is a cosmetic surgical procedure that Dr. Jacono performs to reverse the signs of facial aging in his Asian patients. Dr. Jacono understands that the Asian face is different from the faces of other ethnicities and requires specialized methods to enhance his patient’s appearances without losing their ethnic identity.

Dr. Jacono has performed Asian Facelifts on hundreds of patients and has patients traveling from all over the world, including China, Korea, Japan, Thailand, and Singapore amongst many other countries. Considered a pioneer in the field of facelift surgery, Doctor Jacono has given lectures on facelift at Harvard Medical School, Yale University, Stanford University, and the University of Pennsylvania.

He has delivered over 100 lectures on facelift at the most important national and international plastic surgery symposia of the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons, European Academy of Facial Plastic Surgeons, and the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons. Dr. Jacono has hosted hundreds of surgeons from 6 continents to observe and teach them how to master the art of facelift.

Asian Facial Characteristics

Some of the unique characteristics of the Asian face during Asian facelift include a flatter facial skeleton with heavier tissues that cause more sag to the lower face, a larger accumulation of fat in the lower face and neck area, more prominent droopy buccal fat pads (which are the cheek fat pads), and thicker skin.

Because of these different characteristics, Asian patients tend to age differently than other ethnicities. Their thicker skin does not show fine wrinkles but Asian patients tend to develop deeper sagging tissue and visibly have prominent neckbands. In order to correct these problems, a facelift that focuses on the deeper musculature and structure of the face is important as more superficial facelifting procedures will not correct these problems.

Reduction of the buccal fat pads in the cheeks and fat in the neck is also an important part of the procedure to contour the cheeks and neckline.

Another important consideration in the Asian Facelift is there is a tendency to develop hypertrophic scarring and keloid scars much more frequently. During facelifting, special measures must be taken to avoid poor scarring.

Asian Facelift Procedure

Understanding the Asian face, Dr. Jacono performs a deep plane facelift, doing Asian plastic surgery in NYC. The deep plane facelift lifts the deeper structure of the face including the drooping muscles of the aging face and neck called the SMAS (superficial muscular aponeurotic system) in the face and the platysma in the neck.

This is important to support the thicker and heavier tissues of the Asian face to create a more rejuvenated appearance and one that will last long term. The deep plane approach will also allow access to the buccal fat pads of the cheeks which are larger in the Asian face so that they can be reduced. Additional Neck fat can also be contoured through the deep plane approach.

With this deeply supported lift under the muscles, there is no tension or pulling on the incision lines once closed. This tension-free closure allows the incision to heal like imperceptible fine lines so that hypertrophic or keloid scarring can be avoided in the Asian facelift.

Korean Plastic Surgery

Plastic surgery on Korean faces follows the same guidelines for facial plastic surgery techniques outlined above. Working with Koreans, the plastic surgeon in NYC with the most experience and expertise is Dr. Jacono. He is dual board certified and has knowledge of Asian rhinoplasty and the facial features of the people of South Korea. He can work toward their aesthetic goals with deftness and a skilled hand.

Recovery

As with all surgeries, the recovery time for a patient will vary and depend upon what surgery was performed. In general, most patients will be able to return to their normal daily activities between 7 to 10 days. There will be evident signs of bruising and swelling and some patients may experience some numbness near the incision sites. These side effects will go away on their own during the recovery process.

Candidates

The best candidate for this procedure is men and women of Asian descent who are between the ages of forty and sixty years old. They are beginning to show signs of aging. Potential patients should be in good overall health and should have realistic expectations for their surgical outcomes.

Mission Statement

Doctor Jacono’s desire to become a facial plastic surgeon was solidified in grade school. There was a girl on his school bus route who was born with a cleft lip and palate deformity. Unfortunately, whenever she spoke, air and words escaped through her nose. Kids teased her and were cruel, and nobody would sit next to her on the bus, so he decided to sit with her. One day, the girl had plastic surgery and returned to school with her face repaired. Suddenly, classmates saw her face instead of her deformity and immediately treated her normally. It was at that moment that Doctor Jacono knew he wanted to fix people’s faces and change their lives. This is why he has gone on over twenty plastic surgery missions to poor countries around the world and provided free cleft lip and surgery for birth defects to over 500 children.

Because of this experience in his childhood, Doctor Jacono understands that one of our basic needs as human beings is to feel confident about our appearance. It’s is Doctor Jacono’s passion to help his patients achieve their facial aesthetic goals, creating natural appearing results to either enhance their beauty and proportion or rejuvenate their aging appearance. He is a world-renowned leader in the field of facial plastic surgery and only performs surgery on the face, not the body. He has innovated many facelift, eyelid lift, and rhinoplasty surgical techniques, publishing in leading peer reviewed literature and lecturing at plastic surgery conferences all over the world. He is committed to sharing what he has learned teaching surgeons from around the world.

His approach is to maintain your uniqueness and facial identity; it is still you just better. To do this he uses a customized, bespoke approach to each patient employing the most minimally invasive, innovative, and cutting-edge technology. Doctor Jacono has never performed the same procedure on any two of the thousands of patients he has treated. He is committed to providing his surgical expertise in a caring, supportive environment with a professional staff that has you as their focus and concern.
