Face lifts remain one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures in Pittsburgh, and the reasons behind that seem to be unique to the specific population in this area. Here is the inside scoop on everything you need to know about face lifts in Pittsburgh.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who\u2019s Opting for Face Lifts in Pittsburgh?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pittsburgh\u2019s age demographic includes an interesting mix of an influx of new millennials, while also remaining one of the oldest populations in the country (<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/joelkotkin\/2012\/12\/14\/aging-america-the-cities-that-are-going-gray-the-fastest\/#7f53a571204c\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Forbes Magazine<\/span><\/i><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). This could, in part, be due to the fact that many native Pittsburghers tend to keep their roots intact, whereas people from many other major cities tend to move around frequently, eventually settling somewhere else. But whatever the reason, there are a number of aging men and women in the Pittsburgh area who are choosing to get facelifts to help their facial appearance match the energetic, active lifestyles that more and more Pittsburghers are adopting.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why are Pittsburgh Men and Women Getting Face Lifts?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many Pittsburgh men and women are getting face lifts for very different reasons than may be the case in some larger cities. Pittsburghers generally aren\u2019t looking for a dramatic change that might give them a \u201cplastic\u201d look, but rather subtle improvements in their appearance that can help them look and feel refreshed and revitalized. When features like jowls, lines, and wrinkles get in the way of a person\u2019s looking and feeling their absolute best, a face lift can be an effective solution to reverse the signs of aging and restore a younger look (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucsfhealth.org\/treatments\/facelift\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">UCSF Medical Center<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). While those in some larger cities may be focused on achieving a certain aesthetic, Pittsburghers tend to seek subtler enhancements of their facial structure.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who Is the Best Candidate for a Face Lift?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best candidates for a face lift procedure will:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b><b>Have skin with good elasticity: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While excess skin can be removed during a face lift, creating a firmer, younger look, the best candidates will have good skin elasticity for long-lasting results. <\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Be of good health: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As with any plastic surgery procedure, men and women considering a face lift should be in general good health to ensure their safety and best results both during and after surgery.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Have loose skin or features that would benefit from the procedure: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A face lift may be the right procedure if you have loose skin in the face or chin areas that can be removed and tightened through a surgical procedure. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Have realistic expectations: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s important that those considering a face lift understand that while the results of the procedure can be very effective at creating firmer, younger-looking skin, the natural bone structure and aesthetics of your face will play a role in the final results.
