If you feel that your face has lost some of its youthful vitality, you may want to consider a facelift in Torrance, CA, at Beyond Beautiful. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Sherif Khattab is a recognized expert in facial rejuvenation, helping patients refresh and revitalize their looks through proven surgical techniques.
Facelift surgery is a versatile procedure with many variations that can be tailored to your unique cosmetic goals:
When considering your options for facelift surgery, it’s important to consider the specific regions you want to improve, how long you’re willing to spend in recovery, and how you want your face to appear post-surgery. Dr. Khattab will discuss your choices in detail during your consultation. You will also have the opportunity to view his gallery of before and after photos.
The best candidates for a facelift procedure in Torrance have sagging skin and facial wrinkles, but still have good skin quality and some elasticity. The majority of facelift patients are between the ages of 40 and 70. However, overall health and skin quality are more important factors than age. For best results, you should also be non-smoking and possess realistic expectations.
To confirm your candidacy for facelift surgery, you’ll need to be honest and upfront about every aspect of your health. Your initial consultation will include a physical examination and a discussion of your medical history and cosmetic goals. This information will help our expert facelift surgeon, Dr. Khattab, determine if this procedure is right for you.
Facelift surgery is an outpatient procedure that typically takes 2-3 hours to complete. Dr. Khattab generally performs facelifts using IV sedation rather than general anesthesia to reduce the risk of complications.
Once you’re comfortable, Dr. Khattab will make the appropriate incision pattern. Next, he will trim and tighten the skin and underlying tissue to give your face more definition, and then redrape your facial skin. All incisions will be closed with sutures.
One of Dr. Khattab’s primary goals is ensuring a safe and comfortable recovery. When you wake up from surgery, you will likely experience some discomfort, swelling, and bruising. Pain medication will be provided, and you’ll need to keep your head elevated for the first few days.
Most patients can resume work and other regular routines within 5-10 days. More strenuous activities should be restricted for an additional 3-4 weeks.
The final results of your facelift will appear gradually over several weeks as any residual swelling subsides. Following a full recovery, your face should appear firmer, smoother, and more alert without looking unnatural.
The final results will be long-lasting, but your face will still be subject to the normal aging process. Practicing safe sun habits and abstaining from tobacco can allow your new look to last as long as possible.
The cost of a facelift depends on the exact techniques used by Dr. Khattab, as well as anesthesia fees and other patient-specific details. We can calculate the total price of your procedure during your consultation at Beyond Beautiful.

In many cases, these procedures can be performed on the same day so that patients experience one recovery period.
A properly performed facelift should create a natural and refreshed appearance rather than an overly tight or “pulled” look. Dr. Khattab focuses on subtle enhancements to preserve your unique facial expressions.
