El Paso, TX – Renowned plastic surgeon Dr. Sadri Ozan Sozer, MD, has introduced the groundbreaking “Glidelift” technique, marking a significant advancement in the world of facelift procedures. This cutting-edge method, known for its inconspicuous scarring, offers a vertically oriented midface lift in conjunction with periorbital shaping.
In a recent conversation with Dr. Sozer, we delved into the details of this revolutionary procedure and learned how it consistently delivers exceptional, natural-looking results to his patients.
So, What Exactly Is a “Glidelift”?
Dr. Sozer provides a comprehensive explanation, saying, “Essentially, we perform a facelift through a discreet incision concealed within the patient’s hairline. Utilizing a specialized lighted retractor, we delicately lift the skin to gain access to the underlying midface tissues. With a vertical approach, we elevate the deep structures to restore a youthful and rejuvenated appearance.”
He emphasizes that the “Glidelift” does not involve the removal of skin during the surgery. “Instead,” Dr. Sozer clarifies, “we elevate the skin vertically, not horizontally, and precisely position it using a surgical net, achieving optimal results.”
