Facial Liposuction Before & After Case 572

Our patient, a healthy and active 70-year-old woman, sought facial rejuvenation to address age-related changes in her appearance. She chose to pursue a Facelift (S-Lift), Facial Liposuction with Platysmaplasty, Bilateral Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), and Rhinoplasty. Our patient is pleased with her results. 

Her experience underscores the importance of individualized care when considering a facelift in West Des Moines & Ames. Through a combination of techniques, excess skin was removed and the underlying tissues were carefully repositioned. Liposuction targeted stubborn fat deposits under the chin and along the neck, while platysmaplasty restored a smoother neck contour. Upper and lower eyelid lifts addressed the appearance of puffiness and sagging around her eyes, helping her look more refreshed and alert.

Our patient returned to normal activities gradually, following guidelines for postoperative care. Her healing process was closely monitored through scheduled follow-up visits. The improvements visible in her before and after photos speak to successful aesthetic outcomes and her satisfaction with the changes.

These procedures were performed by Dr. Cody Koch, MD, PhD of Koch & Carlisle Plastic Surgery & Spa. Board-certified in both Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Dr. Koch draws from extensive training and academic experience. His approach emphasizes safety and results tailored to each individual’s goals, offering a trusted option for patients seeking a facelift in West Des Moines.
