    PROCEDURES OF INTEREST

    At Gentera Center for Plastic Surgery, we specialize in enhancing facial harmony through advanced techniques. Our expert surgeons offer a range of facial cosmetic procedures, including facelifts, blepharoplasty, fillers, and rhinoplasty. Our goal is to help you look and feel your best at every stage of life.

    Deep Plane Facelift

    This technique focuses on lifting and repositioning the deeper layers of facial tissues, including the muscles and ligaments, rather than just tightening the skin.

    Best for: Significant sagging in the mid and lower face.
    Benefits: Long-lasting results that appear natural, with improved cheek volume and a refined jawline.

    Mid Facelift

    Targets the central area of the face, including the cheeks and areas around the eyes, for a subtle and refreshed look.

    Best for: Early signs of aging, such as sagging cheeks or hollow under-eye areas.
    Benefits: Lifts the cheeks and smooths under-eye hollows, restoring youthful contours.

    Liquid Facelift

    A non-surgical solution that uses dermal fillers and Botox to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and subtly lift facial features.

    Best for: Those seeking temporary improvements without surgery.
    Benefits: Immediate results, minimal downtime, and a non-invasive approach.

    Mini Facelift

    A less invasive option focusing on the lower face, targeting jowls and mild skin laxity.

    Best for: Individuals with early signs of aging who want subtle enhancement.
    Benefits: Quick recovery, smaller incisions, and natural-looking results.

    Neck Lift

    Redefines the jawline and eliminates sagging skin and fat deposits in the neck area.

    Best for: Loose skin or “turkey neck” and excess fat under the chin.
    Benefits: A smoother, more sculpted neck and jawline with enhanced definition.

    SMAS Facelift
    (Superficial Musculo-Aponeurotic System)

    Targets the deeper layers of the face, including muscles and connective tissue, for a comprehensive and natural lift.

    Best for: Moderate to advanced sagging in the lower face and neck.
    Benefits: Long-lasting results with improved structure and contours.

    Traditional Facelift

    The gold standard for dramatic facial rejuvenation, this procedure addresses the entire face and neck for comprehensive improvement.

    Best for: Significant aging signs, including deep wrinkles, sagging skin, and muscle laxity.
    Benefits: Complete restoration of facial harmony with long-term results.

    Revision Facelift

    A specialized procedure designed to enhance or correct the results of a previous facelift. This treatment ensures natural refinement and addresses any residual concerns.

    Best for: Individuals unsatisfied with prior facelift results or experiencing recurrent signs of aging.
    Benefits: Customized improvements, correction of asymmetry, and restoration of balance for a refreshed, youthful look.

    WHY DO PEOPLE GET A FACELIFT PROCEDURE?

    Unfortunately, our skin is prone to damage from the sun, gravity, other environmental factors, and the inevitable process of aging. This damage reveals itself in ever-increasing blemishes on our faces such as deep creases, wrinkles, jowls, sagging cheeks, and loose neck skin. While these issues are perfectly normal, losing the youthful appearance of your skin can drastically affect your self-image and the way that you assert yourself in personal and professional interactions.

    Luckily, a facelift operation, which is also known by its proper name rhytidectomy, can radically bring a naturally youthful aesthetic back to your face! These types of procedures are designed to reverse noticeable signs of aging by restoring contours and definition in the middle and lower regions of the face. The facial improvements also last for a significant amount of time.

    FAQS

    Good candidates for a facelift:
    Are in good overall health with no major medical conditions.
    Have visible signs of aging, such as sagging skin, jowls, or deep facial folds.
    Are non-smokers or willing to quit before and after surgery.
    Have realistic expectations about the results.

    A facelift typically focuses on the lower two-thirds of the face, including the cheeks, jawline, and neck. Complementary procedures like brow lifts or eyelid surgery can enhance the results for other facial areas.

    Recovery times can vary, but generally:
    Week 1: Swelling, bruising, and tightness are common. Most patients feel comfortable resuming light activities.
    Weeks 2–4: Swelling and bruising subside. Many patients return to work or social activities by week 3.
    Months 1–3: Final results become more apparent as healing completes.

    Yes! Many patients combine facelifts with complementary treatments for enhanced results, such as:

    Brow lift: To elevate the forehead and brow area.
    Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty): To rejuvenate the eye area.
    Neck lift: For a smoother, more defined neck.
    Injectables: Such as Botox or fillers for volume and wrinkle smoothing.

    The results of a facelift typically last 10–15 years, depending on factors such as age, genetics, skin quality, and lifestyle choices. Following a healthy skincare regimen and avoiding sun exposure can help prolong results.

    Empowered Journeys: True Stories of Transformation and Confidence

    I used to work for Dr. Michael Rodriguez. I did not trust to have surgery with anyone but him. Im so glad I did. Thank you, Magic Mike. Love my augmentation. Also the anesthesiologist, Alex, was so sweet and made me feel calm before surgery. I am a type 1 diabetic and he really took great care of me even in recovery. Both doctors were amazing. Gentera is a beautiful office and the staff were super sweet. Especially the medical assistants and all OR staff. Thank you. I had surgery today and i feel great.

    From the first virtual visit with Dr Rodriguez to my surgery this week at Gentera it has been amazing . When you walk in the office is large and impressive. The nurses were very comforting as I was super nervous. Pre-op prior to surgery done and all my paperwork had to be done before arrival. They have the process down to a science. Appt were kept on time and Dr very professional as well. I would definitely recommend this location. You don’t have to worry about no one answering your calls or dismissing your issues here, it’s worth the trip

I definitely would recommend Gentera to anyone looking to have a procedure done and/or for the tons of other services they have to offer! Check them out!
    Meyling Hernandez
    I am super satisfied and happy to have found Dr. Marina Zorrilla, she is the best! with the Gentera’s team. Although, I was clear about on what I wanted to improve my body, I didn’t know what the right procedure was to take. She advised me with her knowledge and we made the best decision. After a week of my procedure , I can say the results are amazing and I am super happy and confident. Highly recommended, because at Gentera they are very professional, organized and attentive.
