Importance of Health in Facelift Recovery

Dr. Kevin Sadati is an expert facial plastic surgeon who is known for providing patients with stunning, natural results. One of the ways he is able to do this is by confirming that every patient he works with in Orange County is a qualified candidate for the facelift procedure. While he considers many factors when determining candidacy, a patient’s general health is probably the most important factor. All Newport Beach patients must be in good health and free of any medical conditions before they undergo a cosmetic surgery such as the facelift procedure.

Why Health is the Most Important Factor for Facelift Candidacy

While a facelift procedure is considered to be a cosmetic surgery designed to provide the patient with aesthetic improvements; nonetheless, it is still a surgical procedure. A person must be in good health in order to withstand the trauma of the operation and the sometimes difficult healing period during the recovery.

Patients who are in poor general health may have a longer, more painful recovery. They may not be able to achieve the expert results that they were hoping for after the procedure due to their poor health.

Some patients may think that their age is a better determinant of their candidacy for facelift, but this is not always true. An older patient in their 60s or 70s may be in better general health than a patient in their 40s who smokes and has diabetes or heart disease, which would make the older patient a better candidate for the procedure. Dr. Kevin Sadati considers a variety of environmental and biological factors when deciding if a patient is a good candidate for the facelift, but ultimately he needs every patient he works with to be healthy and able to withstand surgery and recovery.

The body must be given ample time  to heal properly after a surgical procedure. Many cosmetic surgeons, including Dr. Kevin Sadati, require patients to be free of any conditions that would prevent them from healing. For instance, smokers should avoid cosmetic surgery because nicotine prevents the body from healing itself. Anyone with blood-clotting disorders or skin necrosis should also carefully consider their health before deciding to have cosmetic surgery. Some patients must get a referral of good health from their general practitioner before they are able to have any type of cosmetic surgery.

Dr. Kevin Sadati wants patients throughout Newport Beach and Orange County to recognize that the facelift surgery is a safe and effective cosmetic procedure, but confirming candidacy is an important step of the process. As a board certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Kevin Sadati wants to ensure that all of his patients receive the results they are looking for after the operation is complete. This is why he carefully selects patients who are ideal candidates for the procedure before he heads to the operating room.
