But, doctors say you’ll still want Botox.
Olivia Molina Avellaneda tells The Post that the ponytail procedure has restored her fresh-face glow, giving her the appearance of a glamor puss more than ten years her junior.Cutting edge millennial New Yorkers are going under the knife for “ponytail facelifts” — a cheaper, less intense pick-me-up than a traditional facelift that still achieves dramatic results.
“This is a procedure that was essentially made for women in their late twenties and early thirties,” said Ari Hoschander, a Manhattan-based, board-certified plastic surgeon who has seen a massive uptick in requests for the trendy operation since the COVID-19 lockdown. “The ponytail facelift offers way less swelling, there’s minor pain and you’ll look ‘normal’ much quicker.” Unlike a standard facelift, during which doctors make incisions all around the head and neck, surgeons performing a ponytail facelift achieve a tightened look by making only a few cuts along the hairline and behind the ears, extracting excess tissue from the forehead and tugging the skin back to create a firm finish. It transforms a patient’s face in the way that an extremely snug ponytail might, hence the name, but it’s most effective for younger patients who don’t have as much sagging skin as their older counterparts.Those who opt for the surgery, first popularized by Los Angeles-based plastic and reconstructive surgeon Chia Chi Kao in the early 2000s, can expect to resume daily activities — such as going grocery shopping or out to a restaurant — sans bandages, bleeding or bruising in just a week.Ponytail facelifts are also far cheaper. In NYC, surgeons can charge as little as $10,000 or as much as $100,000 for one, while a traditional facelift can range anywhere from $20,000 to $200,000. Gabi DeMartino, a Manhattan tastemaker and rising pop princess with a YouTube following of more than 3.1 million subscribers, got a ponytail lift at the onset of the pandemic, at the tender age of 25.For the haute hoist, which was performed by Upper East Side plastic surgeon Ramtin Kassirshe, she shelled out approximately $14,000 and said it was well worth it. But, Hoschander tells The Post that the ponytail lift, while great as a quick alteration, isn’t a cosmetic cure-all. The surgery can’t effectively treat common issues on the upper third of the face, such as crows feet, the ‘eleven lines’ between the eyes and the horizontal lines across the forehead.For her revamped visage, DeMartino drew inspiration from 27-year-old supermodel Bella Hadid’s taut visage, as well as that of Grammy-winning ponytail enthusiast Ariana Grande, 30.
