Frequently Asked Questions

What can a facelift surgery help improve?
Facelift surgery is designed to reverse some of the most common signs of aging by lifting and tightening the skin, giving definition back to the jawline, and improving overall facial contours. This procedure targets sagging, deep wrinkles, and the loss of youthful volume, allowing patients to achieve a natural and refreshed appearance without looking overdone.
How do I choose the best facelift surgeon in Manhattan?
Selecting the right facelift surgeon requires looking for advanced training, board certification, and proven experience in the field of facial plastic surgery. A strong record of before-and-after photos can provide reassurance of a surgeon’s capabilities. Dr. Mourad offers a rare combination of surgical artistry, medical expertise, and precision techniques to achieve balanced outcomes that complement each patient’s natural features.
What is the difference between facial plastic surgery and reconstructive plastic surgery?
Facial plastic surgery generally refers to cosmetic procedures that improve the overall look and harmony of the face, while reconstructive surgery focuses on restoring essential form and function after injuries, cancer treatment, or congenital irregularities. Dr. Mourad has extensive experience in both disciplines, allowing him to provide comprehensive care that addresses aesthetic desires as well as complex medical needs.
What should I expect during a facelift procedure?
A facelift at Mourad NYC begins with a one-on-one consultation to understand your goals. The surgical process involves lifting and repositioning the deeper layers of tissue, removing extra skin, and refining facial structures. The ultimate aim is to rejuvenate your appearance while maintaining your natural facial identity so that you look refreshed rather than altered.
Can a facelift be combined with other treatments for facial rejuvenation?
Yes, facelifts can be performed alongside additional surgical or non-surgical treatments, including eyelid surgery, brow lifts, and injectables. Dr. Mourad designs fully customized treatment plans to maximize results, ensuring patients receive complete facial rejuvenation with outcomes that are subtle yet transformative.
FAQ Section

From Our Blog

The deep plane facelift has become the go-to choice for many top facial plastic surgeons—and for good reason. Instead of just pulling skin tight, it works where aging actually happens: in the deeper support layers of the face.
There isn’t a magic birthday for a facelift. The “safest” age is when your anatomy and skin will clearly benefit more from surgical lifting than from nonsurgical fixes—and when your health makes an elective procedure low risk.
A facelift isn’t one single operation—it’s a range of techniques tailored to how (and where) you’re aging. “Mini facelift” and “full facelift” are common labels, but they point to very different levels of dissection, how deeply tissue is moved, and how much work is done in the neck.
Interest in facial rejuvenation has never been higher, but the menu of options—from injectables and energy devices to deep-plane facelifts—can feel overwhelming. Patients often ask a deceptively simple question: is a facelift “worth it” compared to non-surgical treatments?

I was on the hunt for the perfect plastic surgeon for a rhinoplasty/septoplasty for many years. When I found Dr Mourad and decided to proceed with the surgery, it was the best decision I ever made. He changed my life, my look, my ability to breathe and stop snoring! I flew in from out of town for the surgery and he and his staff were so accommodating. The days post op he was available by text, call, his personal number, to make sure everything was going well and it did. My recovery was easy and I was able to fly out of town and back to work in a week. He was honest about what would look natural and what wouldn’t and my surgery came out looking so natural many people who know me couldn’t pinpoint what exactly changed. Dr Mourad stayed in touch, I sent him photos and he monitored my progress even being long distant. I’m so thankful to him, and his skill. He is an excellent surgeon who truly cares.
