From Dr. Gross
Considering a facelift? Dr. Gross shares information on the facelift procedure, what makes a good facelift surgery candidate, recovery, several variations on the facelift and other topics related to facelift surgery.
Facelift cosmetic surgery (rhytidectomy) is intended to improve your facial appearance and make you look good for your age.
As we age, the results of gravity, sun exposure and the stress of daily life affect the youthful appearance of our face. Deep creases form around the mouth, the jaw line sags and the skin around the neck begins to loosen.
“The above changes are addressed with our G-lift (mini-lift). A G-lift cannot stop the aging process. But, a great facelift and necklift can really restore a youthful look. Our G-lift improves the most visible signs of aging by removing excess fat, tightening underlying muscles and redraping the skin of the face and neck” says Dr. Gross. A face lift outpatient procedure, performed in Orlando, Florida and the surrounding areas; Lake Mary, Heathrow, Windermere, Seminole County and Alaqua Lakes. It can be done alone or complimented with other procedures as determined by Dr. Gross in your consultation.
“Our G-lift will look very natural. I will smooth and tighten the jaw line with well-hidden incisions. Most of our patients are really looking for a specialist in facial surgery to accomplish these goals”, says Dr. Gross.
If you’re considering a facelift, this information will give you a basic understanding of the procedure, how it’s performed and what results you can expect. Simulations of your results will be seen on our Computer Imager and Dr. Gross will be happy to answer any further questions you may have during your consultation.

Testimonials
I don’t know where to begin setting to words my surgical experience. From the first visit to the office, I felt confident that I had found the right surgeon. Dr. Gross were referred to me a few years ago, before the reality had set in that I would actually go through any facial enhancement.
One of the concerns that I had was the time crunch of my daughter’s wedding, which was seven weeks from the surgery. I had a lot of anxiety concerning the recovery time, and was very brave (or crazy) to schedule surgery that close. I had several procedures done at the same time and was especially worried about the laser surgery on my skin.
It all worked out great. I had so many compliments on my appearance, and no one was the wiser. I looked 10 years younger! How do you thank someone who has made you look 10 years younger?
The recover play I followed put me back into service very quickly. I felt it was crucial to follow the post-op care to the T. I also am amazed at not being able to see any scars. AMAZING!
I also want to compliment your staff for their fine job, as well.
Thank you very much for your skills and caring. You’re the best!
Sincerely,
Anna
My tip to plastic surgery:
Be prepared before your surgery by taking care of your eating and drinking habits. Drink plenty of water and relaxing in the weeks before your surgery.
Buy everything on your pre-op list and your prescriptions well in advance of your surgery date. Your pharmacy may not have your prescription needs and may need time to obtain your drugs.
I followed all the information supplied by Dr. Gross and I had no pain and the bruising was gone within two weeks, when I returned to work.
Some friends and co-workers wanted to know where I went on vacation because I looked great and well rested. Of course I didn’t tell…but I will tell you…THIS WAS THE BEST VACATION EVER! This is one vacation that will last for years to come.
I can’t thank Dr. Gross enough or tell him enough about how happy I am. He truly is the best plastic surgeon.
I must tell you his staff will make you feel like family.
Respectfully,
Susan
