If you are thinking about face lift surgery, remember there are times when you really shouldn't do it. Here are a few such occasions.

If you have a disease or are on medication that affects wound healing, then you might want to postpone your face lift. These include current infection or past medical history of bleeding, emboli, thrombophlebitis, edema, or if you are taking medications that may affect your wound healing or blood clotting (such as aspirin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents, warfarin, heparin, or other anticoagulants) or are taking medication that may interact with the drugs used during liposuction.

If you do elect to have the procedure, compare as many different surgeons as you can. This is elective surgery, it will not likely be covered by insurance, so you want to be able to compare fees and services. The more surgeons you talk to, the more you will know and be able to make an informed decision.
