A lot of our patients ask if they will need to be driven home after their facelift procedure. A large portion of the procedures we offer at The Lanfranchi Center require that the patient be placed under some form of medication to relax them prior to the procedure. Because of this, we ask that you have a designated driver escort you to and from the center.
Most patients will also require some medication to help with any pain or discomfort felt after the facelift procedure, which we will provide a prescription for. We recommend that you have someone drive you to the center for your post-procedure check-up the next day.
Your facelift recovery should be relatively easy, and you will be able to perform your normal activities the day you return from your procedure. If you are interested in undergoing the facelift procedure, contact us to schedule a consultation with facial plastic surgeon Dr. Paul Lanfranchi.
