Facelift & Neck Lift

Funk Facial Plastic Surgery offers standard, mini, and extended facelifts targeting the lower face, jawline, and neck, along with standalone neck lift and neck liposuction. Dr. Funk tailors the extent of dissection to each patient's anatomy and degree of laxity. The mini facelift suits patients with early jowling and typically involves a 10–14 day recovery, while the extended facelift addresses more significant neck and platysmal changes. Brow lift and brow pexy are available for upper facial rejuvenation. Facial implants for chin and cheek projection can be combined with lifting procedures.

The facelift program at Funk Facial Plastic Surgery addresses lower facial and neck ageing through several surgical approaches, allowing Dr. Etai Funk to match the extent of intervention to each individual's anatomy, goals, and recovery preferences. The standard facelift repositions descended soft tissue along the jawline and in the neck, restoring a more defined, rested facial contour. For patients with earlier signs of jowling or neck laxity who prefer a less extensive procedure, the mini facelift targets the lower face and jawline with shorter incisions and a typical recovery window of 10 to 14 days. The extended facelift is suited to patients requiring deeper work in the neck, including dissection of the platysma muscle for longer-lasting neck contour improvement. Standalone neck lift and neck liposuction are offered for patients whose primary concern is submental fat or neck banding without significant facial laxity. These can be performed independently or combined with a facelift depending on the clinical picture. Upper facial rejuvenation via brow lift or brow pexy addresses descending brows and forehead lines, and can be performed at the same time as a facelift for a comprehensive result. Facial implants for the chin and cheeks are available for patients seeking structural projection rather than purely soft-tissue improvement, and these are frequently combined with other facial procedures. Dr. Funk's dual board certification in facial plastic surgery and otolaryngology means anatomy of the face and neck is central to his training. His academic role as Clinical Associate Professor at Baylor College of Medicine and high surgical volume across facial procedures underpin the level of technical refinement brought to each facelift case. The practice is bilingual in English and Spanish, and international patients are welcomed through a structured intake process. All surgical procedures are quoted individually following consultation, as complexity, anesthesia type, and surgical facility requirements vary meaningfully between patients.
