Restore youthful facial contours and address deep wrinkles and folds with a facelift in Beverly Hills performed by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Roger Tsai. At his West Hollywood plastic surgery practice, Dr. Tsai combines advanced surgical expertise with an artistic eye to tighten underlying support tissues and reposition sagging facial skin, delivering natural, balanced results for patients seeking a more youthful, refreshed look.
What Is a Facelift and What Does It Treat?
A facelift, also called a rhytidectomy, addresses the most common signs of facial aging caused by skin laxity, tissue descent, and volume loss. With age, the face may take on a square or rectangular shape as jowls and sagging skin obscure youthful contours.
Facelift surgery is designed to:
- Reposition sagging skin and soft tissues
- Smooth deep wrinkles and facial folds
- Restore youthful cheek volume and definition
- Refine the jawline by reducing jowls
- Tighten and rejuvenate the neck when combined with a neck lift
The goal is to restore the natural “heart-shaped” facial architecture associated with youth while preserving your unique features. For an even more comprehensive approach to facial rejuvenation, many patients choose to combine a brow lift or eyelid surgery with their facelift procedure.

Facelift Procedure Details
During facelift surgery, incisions are carefully placed along the hairline, extending around the ears and sometimes into the scalp for discreet healing. Dr. Tsai then:
- Elevates the skin from underlying tissues
- Tightens lax muscles and connective tissues for long-lasting support
- Repositions facial fat and contours the cheeks, jawline, and neck
- Removes excess skin for a smoother, more youthful appearance
For patients with significant neck laxity, a neck lift may be performed simultaneously. Small incisions under the chin allow for muscle tightening, fat removal, and contour refinement.
Most facelifts take 4–5 hours and are performed under general anesthesia in Dr. Tsai’s accredited surgical facility. Patients return home the same day with a responsible escort
FAQs About Facelift Surgery in West Hollywood
Am I a candidate for a facelift with Dr. Tsai?
You may be a candidate if you are bothered by sagging facial skin, deep wrinkles, jowls, or loss of youthful contour. Good candidates are healthy, non-smokers with realistic expectations.
What is recovery like after a facelift?
Swelling and bruising are common in the first week. Patients typically return to daily activities within 7–10 days, with exercise resuming in 6–8 weeks. Sleeping upright and using cold compresses can help reduce swelling.
Who isn’t a candidate for a facelift?
Patients with uncontrolled medical conditions, poor healing potential, or active nicotine use may not qualify. Smoking must be stopped at least 4 weeks before and after surgery to minimize risks.
What is the cost of facelift surgery in West Hollywood?
Costs vary based on surgical complexity, anesthesia, and facility fees. Insurance does not cover elective facelift procedures, but financing options are available. A personalized treatment plan and cost estimate will be provided during your consultation.
