Before + after at day 1 and day 3 following a preservation deep plane face/neck lift, endoscopic brow lift, and fat grafting for natural volume restoration.
You’ll notice something that can look alarming in these early photos: a hemostatic net.
This is not a bandage or dressing. It’s a temporary pattern of fine sutures I place on the skin in select areas to provide gentle, evenly distributed support and compression during the first few days of healing. The goal is to:
• help achieve reliable hemostasis (reduce the risk of early bleeding)
• minimize fluid accumulation (hematoma/seroma risk)
• reduce swelling and bruising
• support a smooth, even early contour as tissues settle
I typically remove the hemostatic net at post-op day 3, and patients are often surprised by how much more “normal” things look immediately after.
Healing is a process—these are very early results, and I’ll share more updates as swelling continues to improve.
