Choosing facial surgery is more than scheduling an appointment; it’s an emotional commitment to how you want to look and feel for years to come. Dr. Fedok understands the weight of that decision. With over 25 years dedicated exclusively to facial plastic surgery, and one of the region’s lowest complication rates, he approaches every consultation as a conversation about goals, concerns, and the long‑term value of your investment in yourself.
Embarking on your midface lift journey begins with understanding. This procedure primarily addresses sagging or volume loss in the cheek area, distinct from a full facelift, which targets the lower face and neck as well. While often referred to as a ‘cheek lift’ by patients, the correct medical term is a midface lift; a procedure that may involve orbital rim support or implants, depending on individual anatomy. Because it targets the mid‑face only, recovery is typically faster than with a full facelift, yet the outcome can be transformative: a refreshed contour that restores youthful fullness without altering your identity. Key considerations include:
Your investment in a midface lift reflects the personalized nature of the procedure. Elements that can affect the overall investment include:
The underlying support structure, including the bone around the eye sockets (orbital rims), plays a role in deciding which technique should be used. In cases where bony support is less prominent, Dr. Fedok’s expertise guides decisions on whether implant-based solutions might be beneficial for long-term support and aesthetic balance.
The experience, training, and reputation of your facial plastic surgeon are paramount to the value you receive from your midface lift investment. Choosing a double board-certified surgeon like Dr. Fedok, with decades of dedicated practice, ensures you benefit from a proven track record of successful outcomes and an unwavering commitment to patient safety. When considering a midface lift, prioritizing a surgeon’s qualifications and demonstrated results is essential for confidence in your care.
The surgical facility plays a crucial role in your overall experience and safety. At Fedok Plastic Surgery, the investment in your care includes access to a state-of-the-art environment equipped with cutting-edge technology and advanced devices. You benefit from the support of a well-trained team wholly committed to your comfort and safety throughout your procedure.
Some procedures use local anesthesia with sedation, while others require general anesthesia. General anesthesia habitually entails higher fees because it involves an anesthesiologist and specialized monitoring equipment. During your personal consultation, Dr. Fedok will thoroughly explain the anesthesia options suitable for you, ensuring you understand this aspect of your care plan.
Everyone’s face is different, so the scope of a midface lift can differ from patient to patient. While some people may only need minimal adjustments to the cheeks, others might require additional interventions such as fat grafting or skin resurfacing. During a consultation at Dr. Fedok’s Foley clinic, he will evaluate your facial structure and let you know if you could benefit from complementary procedures.
Your midface lift journey extends beyond the procedure itself. Comprehensive aftercare, including scheduled follow-up appointments (often at one week, two weeks, and periodically thereafter), suture removal, and guidance on using specialized bandages or medications, is an integral part of the experience at Fedok Plastic Surgery. This dedicated post-operative support ensures a smooth recovery and underscores the commitment to your long-term well-being and satisfaction.
