Lift & Repair

Before and After Lift and Repair

If you have been struggling to choose between a laser procedure to improve the quality of your skin and a facelift procedure to surgically correct your neck and jowls, Portland Laser and Cosmetic Surgery Center has the answer for you – have both procedures during one visit while you are under anesthesia and don’t feel or remember anything. The results will amaze you, because the procedures are a natural compliment.

With a surgical facelift, Dr. David Magilke can reposition and remove excess skin and tissue to recapture your youthful jaw and neckline. At the completion of the surgery, Dr. Magilke can also use the fractionated CO2 laser to improve the quality of your skin – softening fine lines and wrinkles, fading the effects of years of sun damage. Having both procedures at one sitting means only one 10-14 day recovery period.

Some signs to look for that may make you a good candidate for a Lift and Repair:

  • You have excess neck skin and/or fat that will not correct with skin tightening alone.
  • You have sun damaged skin – brown spots, exposed blood vessels, ..
  • You have fine line and wrinkles, in addition to jowls.
  • You are using make-up to “cover-up” your skin.
  • Improved neck and jawline
  • Youthful profile on photos
  • Improved skin quality
  • Fading of brown spots and facial vessels
