Elevating the Facelift Experience with Dr. Kapil Saigal

The Orlando UpLift is a groundbreaking facial rejuvenation procedure developed by double board-certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Kapil Saigal. Built upon the deep plane facelift and neck lift technique, this advanced approach targets deeper tissue layers while preserving your natural features. With no surgical drains, a rapid recovery timeline, and a refined, age-appropriate lift, the Orlando UpLift reflects Dr. Saigal’s philosophy: sophisticated facial enhancement that never looks pulled, obvious, or overdone. In his opinion, plastic surgery must whisper.

What is the Orlando UpLift?

The Orlando UpLift is Dr. Saigal’s signature evolution of the extended deep plane face and neck lift. This procedure releases and repositions the deeper ligaments and facial structures responsible for sagging, while carefully preserving the overlying tissues. The result is a smooth, organic lift of the cheeks, jawline, and neck, without the tension or artificiality often associated with older facelift methods.  Unlike traditional techniques, minimal skin delamination is performed, and as a result, the Orlando UpLift does not require post-operative drains and is designed for an easier, more comfortable recovery.

Benefits of the Orlando UpLift

Natural, Long-Lasting Results: Lifts the face from beneath the muscle layer to avoid visible tightness or skin bunching.

  • Rapid Recovery: Most patients are socially presentable within 10–14 days.
  • Age-Appropriate Aesthetic: You’ll look refreshed—not different.

Am I a Good Candidate for the Orlando UpLift?

Ideal candidates for the Orlando UpLift are typically in their 40s to 70s and have visible signs of aging such as jowling, sagging cheeks, or neck laxity. If you're seeking a transformative yet natural-looking lift and want to avoid the discomfort of drains or extended downtime, you may be a strong candidate. A consultation with Dr. Saigal will help determine if the Orlando UpLift aligns with your facial anatomy and aesthetic goals.

What to Expect During the Orlando UpLift

The procedure is performed under twilight sedation or general anesthesia, depending on your needs. Through discreet incisions placed around the ears and hairline, Dr. Saigal carefully releases and repositions deep facial ligaments while preserving vital connective tissues.

The platysma muscle in the neck is elevated to restore youthful contouring. No surgical drains are needed—allowing for a more seamless post-operative experience. The entire process typically takes 3–5 hours.

Orlando UpLift Recovery and Results

Thanks to its preservation-based technique and no-drain protocol, the Orlando UpLift allows for a smoother recovery compared to traditional lifts. 

Most patients experience mild swelling and bruising for the first week, with a majority returning to social activities by day 10–14. Over the following weeks, results continue to refine: your face appears rested, your jawline defined, and your neck taut—without signs of surgery. Final outcomes typically stabilize within 3–6 months.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is the Orlando UpLift different from a traditional facelift?

Traditional facelifts often focus on pulling the skin tight. The Orlando UpLift lifts deeper structures while preserving skin integrity, creating more natural, longer-lasting results.

Will I have visible scars?

Incisions are discreetly placed around the ears and within the hairline. With proper care, they typically fade significantly over time and become nearly undetectable.

Can this procedure be combined with other treatments?

Yes. Many patients choose to complement the Orlando UpLift with eyelid surgery or eyebrow surgery, fat grafting, or laser resurfacing for a more comprehensive rejuvenation.

Is the Orlando UpLift painful?

Most patients describe minimal discomfort during recovery, which is well-managed with oral medication. The no-drain technique significantly improves comfort levels.

How long do results last?

Results often last 10–15 years, depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and aging process. Maintenance treatments may help extend your outcome.
