Dr. Ronald H. Schuster is a board-certified plastic surgeon and Chief of the Plastic Surgery Division at Northwest Hospital Center in Baltimore County, MD. With his extensive experience in facelift surgery and other cosmetic procedures, Dr. Schuster has helped countless patients achieve natural, youthful results using the safest and most advanced techniques.
Myth 1: Facelifts Make You Look “Frozen” or Unnatural
One of the most persistent myths is that facelifts give you an unnatural, “frozen” appearance. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Today’s facelift techniques are designed to enhance your natural beauty. Dr. Schuster focuses on making the changes that help you look like a more youthful version of yourself (but not overdone).
Myth 2: Only Older Individuals Need Facelifts
Many people believe that facelifts are only for those in their 60s or 70s. But the truth is, facelifts can benefit adults of various ages. It is not your age that matters but how you are aging. Younger patients often seek early intervention to address the initial signs of aging or if they’ve lost facial volume due to weight loss. A facelift can help you maintain a younger look. Dr. Schuster customizes each procedure to fit your needs, regardless of your age.
Myth 3: Facelifts Are Only for Women
While women have traditionally been the main recipients of facelifts, more and more men are now considering the procedure. Dr. Schuster is able to tailor his techniques to suit the facial anatomy of both men and women. There’s no reason men shouldn’t get to enjoy looking more youthful.
Myth 4: Recovery Is Painful and Takes Forever
If you’re worried about a long, painful recovery, you don’t need to be. With advancements in surgical techniques and post-operative care, the recovery process for a facelift is more comfortable and quicker than ever. Most patients can return to their normal activities within a few weeks with minimal discomfort.
