Elsa Raskin MD
Dr. Raskin grew up in Switzerland and earned her M.D. from the University of Geneva. After training in general surgery at New York University she studied ophthalmology at New York Eye and Ear Infirmary. She completed plastic surgery training at New York Presbyterian and a plastic surgery fellowship at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and an additional fellowship in oculoplastics at the University of Pennsylvania.

After practicing for five years in New York, Dr. Raskin relocated to Greenwich in 2006 and opened her current practice. Genetics, aging, sun exposure and lifestyle factors can impact skin's elasticity, causing it to sag and wrinkle. A facelift is an excellent option for patients who want to tighten their facial skin and reduce wrinkles. During this procedure, Dr. Elsa Raskin will make small incisions around your ears, temples, and chin to alter the underlying fat and muscle.

Once she has removed any surplus fat, she will tighten the muscle and gently pull the skin back into place, removing any excess tissue.

A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure that aims to reverse the visible signs of aging on the face to create a youthful and natural look.
The goal is not to change who you are, but simply take you back to a more youthful version of yourself.
It is important to mention that a facelift will only treat sagging of the tissues, as such additional treatments may be necessary, like facial fillers, to treat the loss of facial volume or skin resurfacing with photo rejuvenation to treat skin changes secondary to sun damage.
