Most facelift procedures are performed at The Plastic Surgery Clinic. All surgeries at the Clinic are performed by a highly trained plastic surgeon. There is always a surgeon on call for patients to contact if they are worried that they might be experiencing any difficulty.

Dr. Lista is Past Chief of Plastic Surgery at the Trillium Health Center (The Mississauga Hospital) so our Toronto facelift patients can undergo this procedure at the hospital if they so prefer. Face lift surgery may be performed under local anesthesia with sedation or under general anesthesia. At the Plastic Surgery Clinic general anesthetics are administered by specialist physicians who are board certified in the specialty of anesthesia. These doctors give the anesthetic, stay with the patient during the entire operation and are with the patient while they are waking up. The operation takes several hours. A friend or relative will need to come and pick you up and stay with you for 24 hours.
