Facelift Options in The Woodlands, TX
Dr. Steven Kronowitz offers a variety of customized facial enhancement options that can be combined for an extended facelift.
While he regularly includes a neck lift with his facelift procedures to rejuvenate the entire low and mid-face area, he may recommend a complementary procedure to address the upper face and loss of cheek volume when appropriate.
By the time individuals feel they’re ready for a facelift, other tell-tale signs of aging, like sagging around the forehead, eyes, and neck, or volume loss, have usually established themselves.
Including additional procedures to address these issues can help you achieve the most dramatic, balanced, and natural-looking results.
Dr. Kronowitz can also add eyelid surgery, a brow lift, or fat transfer to the face for those seeking a comprehensive facelift in The Woodlands, Texas.
Am I a Candidate for a Facelift?
The best candidates to receive a facelift are at or close to their ideal weight, healthy enough for surgery, don’t smoke or abuse alcohol, and have realistic expectations, along with some of the following concerns:
- Deep wrinkles and lines
- Sagging skin on the mid-face, jowls, and neck
- Facial asymmetry
- Facial volume loss
- Creases between the nose and mouth
- Fat deposits under the chin
- Vertical neck banding
What Are the Benefits of Having a Facelift?
Facelift surgery is one of the most impactful cosmetic procedures one can undergo. Dr. Kronowitz creates custom treatment plans designed to meet your unique needs and deliver the results you desire.
- Firm, more youthful-looking skin from the neck to the cheeks
- Significant reduction/elimination of wrinkles, lines, and deep creases
- Restored facial volume (especially with fat transfer)

- Potential to look more than a decade younger
As mentioned, the benefits of your facelift procedure can be multiplied by combining it with another appropriate treatment.

What Is Involved in a Facelift Procedure?
During your consultation, Dr. Kronowitz will listen carefully to your cosmetic concerns and goals, obtain your medical history, examine your facial skin, neck, and any other areas you may want to treat.
Incisions
Facelift incisions are typically made in the temporal hairline so that the resulting scars are hidden by the hair.
Additional incisions are required when combining procedures:
- Under the chin to complete the neck lift
- In the crease of the eye for an upper eye lift
- Along the lower lash line for a lower lid lift
- Several small incisions along the hairline above the forehead for a brow lift
In rare cases, liposuction may be used to remove excess fat on the neck.
Combining Fat Transfer With Your Facelift
If you add fat transfer to your facelift, unwanted fat from another part of your body is harvested through liposuction, purified, and injected into the areas of your face needing volume.
Some of these areas may include:
- The cheeks
- The lips
- The jawline
- The temples
- Under the eyes
What Will My Facelift Recovery Be Like?
Because general anesthesia is used for facelift surgery, someone will need to drive you home after the procedure.
Bandages will be placed over the incision sites to protect the area and aid in healing. Dr. Kronowitz will provide detailed instructions for your specific procedure(s) and remove the stitches within 10 to14 days.
Expect some moderate bruising and swelling during the first few days of recovery. Post-operative pain can be managed by prescription or over-the-counter medication. Using a cold compress is also recommended.
You should be able to return to work and your regular routine after two weeks, but avoid heavy lifting or strenuous activity for at least six weeks or when cleared by Dr. Kronowitz.
When Will I See MyFacelift Results?
You will be able to see changes immediately after removing the bandages; however, bruising and swelling will obscure your actual results. You can expect continued improvement over the next few weeks.
What Is the Cost for a Facelift in The Woodlands, TX?
A consultation with Dr. Kronowitz can best inform you of what your facelift will include and an accurate estimate. Your facelift is personalized depending on the extent of tissue laxity and your cosmetic desires.
The starting price for a facelift with Dr. Kronowitz is $9875. Dr. Kronowitz also offers a facelift package.
