“I recently had facelift surgery with Dr. Alejandro. I am so pleased with not only the results but the entire experience at eláen.” — Carmen R.
With over 20 years’ collective experience in the plastic surgery and hair transplant industry, the expert team at eláen Plastic Surgery Center in Puerto Vallarta is providing efficient and personalized services to you.
Led by Mexico's top plastic surgeon, Dr. Alejandro Enriquez de Rivera Campero, the leading plastic surgery center in Puerto Vallarta serves patients across the globe. Dr. Alejandro is a renowned plastic surgeon who specializes in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery.
Aging of the face is inevitable. Facelift Surgery Puerto Vallarta, also known as Rhytidectomy, helps to rejuvenate your facial appearance by tightening the muscles in your face and neck, while removing or re-positioning excess skin, fat and deep tissue.
Facelift surgery is the third most common plastic surgery performed in the United States, however many patients are unaware that nearly 90 percent of surgeons in the United States typically use general anesthesia (or in some cases, local injections of anesthesia with intravenous sedation), drainage tubes to remove excess fluid from the incision sites, staples which cause significant scarring, lifting techniques that DO NOT result in a natural appearance and recovery processes that increase the risk of complications.
Facelift Surgery Puerto Vallarta
How does Dr. Alejandro Enriquez de Campero perform Facelift Surgery in Puerto Vallarta? Mexico’s leading board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Alejandro, begins with Twilight Sedation. Unlike plastic surgeons in the USA, he also concludes surgery with an FDA approved fibrin glue sealant.
Why do we use Twilight Sedation? It is crucial for Dr. Alejandro to be able to communicate with you during the procedure. While you may fall in and out of sleep, you will wake up easily to respond to verbal cues from Dr. Alejandro. These simple verbal cues allow him to re-position and tighten the neck and face to a natural position — by asking you to smile, turn left, turn right, look up, look down. Twilight sedation allows your face to withhold it’s natural placement — therefore Dr. Alejandro is able to perform the surgery without changing your natural expression. This is a true facelift.
Following Facelift Surgery in Mexico, we require you to stay overnight in our hospital suite. Patients are encouraged to be physically active in moderation beginning the day after surgery, avoiding strenuous activities or those that appreciably increase heart rate. Normal physical activity can resume after 2 weeks. While most patients experience very little pain after surgery, our team will prescribe Arnica, a homeopathic pain medication that reduces swelling and bruising. Some degree of swelling and bruising is unavoidable so it will be necessary to use cold compresses.
