TheSmarterLift™: Facial Rejuvenation With Half the Recovery Time of Facelift

Even as medical aesthetics technology and treatments advance, there’s still no better way to turn back the clock than a facelift. As it lifts and tightens your skin, it smooths wrinkles, eliminates jowls, and helps you look years younger.
Facelifts come with a notable downside, however. Specifically, recovering from the procedure is usually a lengthy, uncomfortable process.
That’s why Rafael C. Cabrera, MD, FACS, developed an alternative for patients who are seeking facial rejuvenation. At Plastic Surgery Specialists of Boca Raton, he provides TheSmarterLift™, which offers many of the same benefits as traditional facelift surgery but with half the recovery time.
TheSmarterLift difference
Recovering from a traditional facelift usually takes a full month. So many people find the first week painful that it’s common to get prescription pain medications for it. Patients may not resume activities like light walking until after their second week of recovery, and many don’t start getting back to normal life until after the 30-day mark.
That’s why Dr. Cabrera developed TheSmarterLift. He noted that the lengthy recovery time was a major obstacle for a lot of his patients, and he wanted to offer an alternative way for men and women to move forward with their cosmetic goals.
As a result, TheSmarterLift comes with a dramatically shorter recovery time. Most patients recover within a couple of weeks.
On top of that, TheSmarterLift is different from a traditional facelift in that:
- The procedure itself takes only an hour or two
- It doesn’t require an overnight hospital stay
- It uses local anesthetic rather than general anesthesia
- It costs less
Dr. Cabrera specifically designed TheSmarterLift to avoid some of the issues that arise with other quick-recovery facelifts. He delivers natural-looking results free from problems like excessive tightness or distortions at the corners of your mouth.
