Why Choose Dr. Rassael
for a Facelift?
A Personalized Surgical Plan
There is no one-size-fits-all facelift at Millennium Medical. Dr. Hadi Rassael will evaluate your skin laxity, muscle tone, and facial structure to determine whether a mini facelift or a more comprehensive face and neck lift will deliver the best outcome. Explore subtle refinement or more advanced rejuvenation, depending on your goals.
In-Office Treatment With Flexible Anesthesia Options
Dr. Rassael is able to perform many of our patients’ facelift procedures here in our office. This approach can reduce recovery time and make treatment more accessible compared to hospital-based surgery. For more complex cases, our plastic surgeon in Chevy Chase, MD, can arrange treatment in an outpatient setting.
Comprehensive Facial Rejuvenation in One Location
Dr. Rassael offers a full range of facial procedures and nonsurgical treatments that can be performed during the same session as a facelift, including rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery, brow lifts, and nonsurgical skin procedures. You can address multiple concerns with one coordinated plan and one recovery period with our Chevy Chase team.

What a Facelift Can Achieve
A facelift tightens underlying facial muscles and removes excess skin for a result that looks like a more youthful, refreshed version of you. Consider this procedure if you’re looking to achieve any of the following:
- Restore a more defined jawline
- Reduce jowls and sagging in the lower face
- Tighten loose skin along the neck
- Create a smoother, more refreshed appearance
- Improve facial balance without altering your natural features
Your Treatment Options With Dr. Rassael Mini Facelift, Full Facelift, and Neck Lift
Dr. Rassael doesn’t approach facial rejuvenation with a single fixed procedure. Your plan will be built around your unique anatomy. You’ll learn about these treatment options during your consultation:
A mini facelift focuses on early signs of aging in the lower face. Dr. Rassael can tighten underlying tissue and remove small amounts of excess skin to improve definition along the jawline. A mini facelift is a great option if you have mild to moderate skin laxity and you’re looking for noticeable improvement with a shorter recovery period.
A full facelift is meant to address more advanced changes in the face and jowls. Dr. Rassael can lift deeper structures, remove excess skin, and restore contour across the lower face. This approach creates a smoother, more defined jawline and a refreshed appearance that still looks natural.
A neck lift is a comprehensive approach to target loose skin, excess fat, and muscle banding beneath the chin and along the neck. Dr. Rassael can tighten the platysma muscle and refine the neckline to improve definition and create a more balanced profile. Many patients combine a neck lift with a full facelift for more complete rejuvenation.
Dr. Rassael will recommend the most appropriate option based on your goals and the degree of correction needed. Some patients benefit from a single procedure, while others choose a combination approach for more comprehensive results.
Frequently Asked Questions About Facelifts in Chevy Chase, MD
Where will my incisions be placed?
Dr. Rassael places incisions around the ears and within natural creases to keep them as discreet as possible. Scars typically become less noticeable and blend into the surrounding skin as healing progresses.
When will I see my final results?
You’ll notice continued improvement in your facial contours as healing progresses, with initial swelling improving in one to two weeks and results becoming more defined over the following months.
How long do facelift results last?
Facelift results are long-lasting, and many patients enjoy their results for years. While the natural aging process cannot be stopped, you’ll still retain a more youthful appearance compared to if you hadn’t received a facelift. Maintaining a stable weight and using sun protection can help extend your results.
Am I a good candidate for a facelift?
You’re likely a good facelift candidate if you have sagging skin, loss of definition along the jawline, or excess neck skin. Non-smokers and patients in good overall health achieve the best results.
