Male Facelift Surgery in San Diego with Dr. John Hilinski
A male facelift is a cosmetic procedure designed to restore a youthful appearance by addressing the signs of aging in the face and neck. As men age, they may experience sagging skin, deep wrinkles, jowls, and loose skin around the jawline and neck. These signs of aging can make a person look tired and older than they feel. Dr. John Hilinski, a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon in San Diego, specializes in male facelift surgery, offering men a natural, refreshed look while maintaining masculine facial features.
Dr. Hilinski, Nicole, and team are absolutely amazing! Dr. Hilinski is very knowledgeable, takes the time to thoroughly explain procedures, and has gone above and beyond with patient care during my procedure and throughout all of my follow-ups.
Why Male Facelift Surgery May Be Needed
Over time, factors like genetics, gravity, stress, and sun exposure can accelerate the aging process in men. A male facelift may be needed when signs of aging, such as sagging skin, deep wrinkles, and loss of jawline definition, become prominent. Some men choose facelift surgery because non-surgical treatments no longer provide the desired results. Others opt for a facelift to enhance their self-confidence, maintain a competitive edge in their professional lives, or simply feel better about their appearance.
Dr. Hilinski recognizes the unique anatomy of the male face, including thicker skin and different facial hair patterns, and tailors each procedure to deliver natural, masculine results. His expertise in facial plastic surgery allows him to address these concerns while preserving the strength and character of male facial features.

The Male Facelift Procedure
Male facelift surgery typically focuses on tightening the underlying muscles and tissues of the face while removing excess skin. The procedure can be customized to address specific concerns, such as jowls, loose skin around the neck, and deep lines along the cheeks. Incisions are carefully placed along the hairline and natural contours of the face to ensure minimal scarring and a discreet result.
Dr. Hilinski uses advanced techniques to reposition and tighten the underlying facial structure while preserving the natural masculinity of the face. This ensures that the outcome is both youthful and masculine, without the overly pulled or tight appearance sometimes associated with facelift surgery.
Recovery from Male Facelift Surgery
Most men can expect to return to their regular routine within two to three weeks after surgery, although full recovery may take several months as swelling and bruising gradually subside. Dr. Hilinski provides detailed post-operative instructions to help minimize discomfort and ensure a smooth recovery process. Follow-up appointments will monitor healing progress and ensure that results align with your expectations.
