"I wasn't really sure what I wanted to have done
when I came (to Dr. Kress). I just knew I didn't like the way my face was
changing around my eyes. My jaw line still looked fine. Dr. Kress
recommended a temple lift. It was exactly what I was looking
for."

Who is a Candidate?
Anyone with pronounced aging in the temple area can benefit from this cosmetic surgery procedure. Maryland women and men with heaviness and

Temple Lift in Frederick, Maryland
Dr. Donald Kress performs temple lifts on an outpatient basis under general or local
anesthesia, either in a free-standing surgical center or in the Plastic Surgery One office.
To begin the procedure, he places an incision entirely in the hairline above the ear. Through this
incision the underlying tissue is tightened, crow's feet lines can be addressed, and the skin tightened, trimming off the excess. This lift
also may be done to improve on an old eyelid procedure or to complement an eyelid procedure when there is excessive heaviness in the lateral
brow. Drains are rarely used, but may be needed overnight at most.
Recovery Time
Most patients report virtually no pain with their procedure and the sutures are
removed in 7 to 10 days. Because of the inconspicuous suture locations
made entirely within the hair, many people can return to work well
before the sutures are removed.
Your Result
A re-establishment of facial balance and harmony with relief from
heaviness in the temple and brow areas is possible. Crow's feet lines are softened
and you will have a brighter, fresher appearance in the forehead and
upper face.
