First steps of a Revision Facelift

What’s the first step to scheduling a Revision Facelift?

Starting the journey toward a Revision Facelift with Dr. Blake Raggio in Birmingham, AL begins with a personalized and comprehensive consultation. This initial step is crucial in understanding your unique concerns, discussing your goals, and assessing the specific aspects of your previous Facelift that you wish to address.

During the consultation, Dr. Raggio will obtain professional photography, perform a thorough examination and full facial analysis, review your medical history, and engage in open communication to fully grasp your expectations and desired outcomes. This collaborative process ensures a tailored and precise approach to your Revision Facelift.

What to expect on
the day of Revision Facelift surgery

On the day of your Revision Facelift surgery in Birmingham, AL, you can anticipate a warm and welcoming experience led by confidence; we aim to make you feel a part of the family. You will meet with our anesthesia team, and have the opportunity to meet with Dr. Raggio to finalize the treatment plan and answer any last-minute questions or concerns you may have about the procedure.

Once prepped and ready for surgery, you will be escorted to the operating room, where Dr. Raggio and his team’s expertise will shine. The surgical team will administer anesthesia in the form of deep sedation using solely intravenous medications (no need for intubation or breathing tubes) to ensure you remain comfortable throughout the procedure. Local anesthesia (numbing injections) will be administered as well, ensuring a pain-free surgical experience and further enhancing your comfort during and after surgery.

Under Dr. Raggio’s skillful hands, the Revision Facelift will commence, tailored to your unique facial anatomy and the specific adjustments that align with your specific surgical plan. The techniques used for revision will be discussed in your consultation. Once the procedure is complete, you will be escorted to a recovery room, where you will be monitored and cared for by a dedicated recovery nurse as you awaken. Your family member or caregiver will join us in the recovery room, where detailed post-operative instructions will be reviewed to ensure you have a smooth recovery.

The initial days post-surgery are crucial, and our attentive team will guide you through each step. In the immediate recovery phase, it’s normal to experience some swelling and bruising, but Dr. Raggio’s meticulous techniques and carefully crafted perioperative regimen aim to minimize these effects. You will be provided with detailed postoperative instructions, including guidance on managing any discomfort and caring for your incisions. Most patients require two to three weeks of “social downtime,” wherein they avoid public settings while allowing a majority of the initial swelling to subside to a reasonable level. Final results are apparent at four to six months after surgery.

Advanced Recovery with

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) treatment

As part of our advanced recovery protocol, Raggio MD Facial Plastic Surgery offers complimentary Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) treatment to patients who undergo facial plastic surgery here in Birmingham, AL.

‌Hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases the delivery of oxygen to parts of your body in the process of healing, speeding the process and improving its effectiveness, while reducing swelling and bruising. This process also helps to increase your body’s capacity to neutralize the damage caused by oxidative stress and the presence of free radicals, allowing your cells to function more efficiently and heal your body at a much faster rate.‌

Please understand that not all hyperbaric chambers are created equal. Normal atmospheric pressure is measured at approximately 1 atm, and most commercial chambers can only reach a pressure of 1.4 atm. At Raggio MD Facial Plastic Surgery, we use a state-of-the-art “hard” chamber that can reach up to an industry-standard pressurization of 2.0 atm required to affect the physiologic benefits of HBOT.

‌The higher capabilities of these rigid hyperbaric chambers allow for a more significant health benefit than simpler models, meaning your recovery will be optimized to its fullest.

    Dr. Raggio is the absolute best! He listens and is very precise with his injections. I am extremely happy with the results I have gotten with him. He does not push any services on you, either. I have uploaded two pictures to show the difference. I get Botox and lip filler.

    5 Star Review

    I went to Dr Reggio for my eyelids. They were folding over. I was scared to have the surgery but the right eye was bothering me. So I decided to have the surgery and this Doctor is such a delight and kind-hearted. I am very, very happy with the way my surgery turned out. I would highly recommend Dr. Raggio to anyone!
