Our vibrant 74 year old patient came to The Almonte Center wanting to know more about facial rejuvenation with concerns to her lower face and her eyes. After consulting with our RN Cynthia, they decided to move forward with Dr. Almonte’s signature A-Lift (Facelift), Upper &
Lower Eyes.

Our first procedure of the day is for our beautiful esthetician Gina. She noticed a bump on the inside of her lip a few years ago and over time has grown. After Dr. Almonte assessed the area he stated it is a Mucocele (harmless fluid from salivary glands) and it is benign. A simple removal and two stitches and she is good to go👌🏽

During the facelift, the underlying facial muscle known as the SMAS is tightened, then the skin is re-draped and tightened on top of that, thus rendering a lasting result. For most patients, the facelift can be done in one to two hours, and the overall recovery time is around 10 – 14 days. You could be back to work in a couple of weeks.

This is a popular surgery we have been seeing a lot of. Trends come and go. And piercings- including lobe stretching - are not forever. While you can remove a piercing and let the hole naturally grow over, stretched lobes need a bit more help.
