Male Facelift In Miami, FL

The face ages in two very different ways, and Dr. Pazmiño addresses both:

• Lost volume: As we age, the face loses volume, which leaves it looking hollow and tired. Dr. Pazmiño always includes fat grafting to restore this lost volume with your own fat.
• Sagging tissues: Over time, the deeper tissues of the face loosen and fall. For men, Dr. Pazmiño always performs a deep-plane facelift that repositions deeper tissues rather than just pulling the skin, rebuilding the face’s underlying support for a natural, masculine result.

• Dr. Pazmiño’s approach centers on natural-looking results, so your male facelift refreshes your appearance without changing who you are.
• He has practiced plastic surgery since 2003 and has performed more than 10,000 surgeries. Because many of those surgeries combine several procedures, they include more than 300 facelifts.
• Certified and held to the highest standards: Dr. Pazmiño is a board-certified plastic surgeon, certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), and a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS). He is a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and The Aesthetic Society (ASAPS).
• Trained at the best, and now training others: He graduated with honors from Harvard University and earned his medical degree with distinction from Baylor College of Medicine. He also completed his general and plastic surgery residency there and served as Chief Resident. Today he teaches the next generation of plastic surgeons as a Clinical Assistant Professor of Plastic Surgery at the University of Miami and the University of Pittsburgh.
• His peers have entrusted him with some of the most important roles in his specialty: As Associate Editor of the Aesthetic Surgery Journal, the #1 scientific journal in aesthetic surgery, he helps decide which research and techniques reach plastic surgeons around the world. He brings that knowledge straight to your care.
• He helps write the safety rules other surgeons follow: He serves on the Board of Directors of The Aesthetic Foundation, where he is Treasurer and Co-Chair of the Scientific Research Committee. He is also Chair of The Aesthetic Society’s Patient Safety Committee. Closer to home, he serves as Treasurer on the Board of Directors of the Florida Society of Plastic Surgeons. He helps set the standards surgeons follow across the country, and he follows them for you.
• Honored for keeping patients safe: He received the Tiffany Award from The Aesthetic Society and the Patient Safety Award from The Aesthetic Foundation.
• Hospital-level care: Your surgery takes place in a hospital or an accredited surgical facility, with dedicated nursing care and closer monitoring.
• A national leader who still makes time for you: Even with these national roles, Dr. Pazmiño takes the time to listen to your goals, explain every option, and care for you personally.

You may be a good candidate for a male facelift if you:

• Have jowls, a blurred jawline, or loose skin along the lower face and neck
• Have deep folds that fillers no longer correct well
• Want a natural refresh rather than a dramatic change
• Are in good overall health, with high blood pressure well controlled
• Do not smoke, or are willing to quit before and after surgery
• Can take about two weeks away from work and public commitments

Dr. Pazmiño will evaluate your skin quality, facial structure, and neck to determine whether a male facelift, a neck lift, or a combination best fits your goals.

A male facelift offers longer-lasting correction than fillers or skin treatments. Key benefits include:

• A sharper, more defined jawline
• Reduced jowls and smoother lower-face contours
• Tighter skin along the upper neck
• Softened deep folds around the nose and mouth
• A rested, confident look that matches how you feel
• Discreet incisions inside and behind the ear that protect your beard and sideburns
• Results that typically last many years

Thoughtful preparation lowers your risk of bleeding and helps your face heal smoothly. Dr. Pazmiño will give you personalized instructions, which usually include these steps:

1. Stop smoking and all nicotine use several weeks before surgery, as nicotine impairs skin healing.
2. Ensure your blood pressure is well controlled, working with your physician if needed.
3. Avoid aspirin, certain anti-inflammatory medications, supplements such as fish oil, and alcohol, as directed.
4. Complete any lab work or medical clearance Dr. Pazmiño requests.
5. Ask Dr. Pazmiño how to trim your beard and hair before surgery.

1. Sleep with your head elevated for the first one to two weeks.
2. Take blood pressure medication as prescribed and avoid straining, which can raise your bleeding risk.
3. Use cold compresses as directed to reduce swelling and bruising.
4. Shave carefully around your incisions, or wait until Dr. Pazmiño clears you.
5. Avoid alcohol, heavy lifting, and strenuous exercise until you are cleared.
6. Protect your incisions and face from the sun with a hat and sunscreen once they have closed.
7. Attend every follow-up appointment so that our team can monitor your healing.
