Facelift
Consultations offered at our two convenient locations in Houston and Lake Jackson, TX
Restore the reflection that matches the energy you feel inside.
There comes a moment when the face looking back at you in the mirror no longer reflects the vitality you feel. The dry, stifling heat of Houston, combined with the natural passage of time, can lead to sagging skin, deep folds, and a “tired” appearance that persists even after a full night’s sleep.
At Town & Country Plastic Surgeons + Medspa, we believe that facial rejuvenation is not about changing who you are—it is about restoring who you were. Led by Dr. Scott Yarish and Dr. Janak Parikh, our approach combines the art of aesthetic balance with the science of surgical precision to deliver results that look refreshed, authentic, and never “done.”

Before and After Photos
Am I A Candidate?
A facelift is a highly personal decision. While we treat healthy patients ranging from their 40s to their 80s, the right time for surgery is when you feel ready. You may be an ideal candidate if:
- The “Tired” Comment: Friends or colleagues ask if you are tired, even when you feel energetic.
- Loss of Definition: You notice jowls softening your jawline or loose skin on your neck.
- Volume Loss: You have lost the youthful fullness in your cheeks (mid-face).
- Non-Surgical Limits: You have tried fillers or BOTOX®, but they no longer provide the lift you need.
- Health Status: You are a non-smoker in good overall health.
Your Customized Options
We do not believe in a “one-size-fits-all” facelift. During your consultation, we will evaluate your skin quality, muscle support (SMAS layer), and anatomy to design a plan that fits your goals.
The Standard Facelift
This comprehensive procedure targets the mid-to-lower face. It lifts and tightens sagging tissues, removes excess skin, and smooths deep creases to address moderate to severe signs of aging.
The Mini-Facelift
Ideal for younger patients with mild to moderate laxity. This technique uses shorter incisions to tighten the jawline and lower cheeks with a shorter recovery time.
Complete Facial Harmony
A facelift addresses the lower two-thirds of the face. To ensure a balanced result, many patients choose to combine their lift with:
- Neck Lift: To sharpen the jawline and eliminate “turkey neck.”
- Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty): To brighten tired eyes.
- Fat Grafting: To restore lost volume to the cheeks and temples using your body’s own natural tissue.
The “Comprehensive Rejuvenation Concept”
What truly sets Town & Country Plastic Surgeons apart is our belief that surgery is just one part of the process. We have developed a signature protocol to maximize your results and speed up your recovery.
1. Pre-Op Preparation (2 Weeks Prior) We don’t just operate; we prepare your canvas. You will begin a personalized skincare regimen, potentially including microdermabrasion, to ensure your skin is healthy and vascularized before surgery.
2. The Procedure Your surgery is performed in our private, accredited facility. Most patients choose twilight sedation, which allows for a relaxed, comfortable experience without the heavy “hangover” of deep general anesthesia.
3. Post-Op Therapy Your surgical care includes weekly visits with our medical aestheticians for Lymphatic Massage and Ultrasound Treatments. These painless therapies significantly reduce swelling and bruising, helping you heal faster and feel better.
Recovery: What to Expect
We are with you every step of the way to ensure a smooth recovery.
- Day 1: You will return to the office the morning after surgery. We will gently wash your hair, clean your incisions, and apply a fresh, light elastic dressing.
- The First Week: You will wear a support garment to minimize swelling. While you may feel groggy and tight, significant pain is rare.
- Day 7–14: Most stitches are removed, and residual bruising can be covered with makeup. Most patients feel confident returning to work and social activities after two weeks.
- Long-Term: Results will continue to refine over 2–3 months as the tissues settle into their new, youthful position.

FAQ
Will I look natural?
Yes. The “wind-blown” look comes from pulling skin too tight. Our technique involves repositioning the deeper muscle layers (SMAS) first, then redraping the skin gently. This ensures your expression remains authentically yours—just fresher.
How long do results last?
A facelift effectively “sets the clock back” by about 10 years. While you will continue to age naturally, you will always look younger than you would have without the surgery.
What about scars?
Incisions are meticulously placed within the hairline and natural contours of the ear. Once healed, they are virtually undetectable to the naked eye.
