Face Lift (Rhytidectomy)
Restore or enhance your face to undo the tell-tale signs of aging gracefully and discretely.
A facelift is a surgical procedure designed to improve the visible signs of aging in the face and neck. It addresses issues such as deep creases, sagging skin, and excess fatty deposits that contribute to a loss of youthful contours. The procedure is often combined with other rejuvenation techniques to achieve a more comprehensive result.
Ideal candidates for a facelift are typically individuals who are in good general health and have concerns about the visible signs of aging in their face and neck, such as sagging skin, deep creases, and excess fatty deposits.
Before and Afters
- Reduces the appearance of facial aging of the lower face and neck
- Improves sagging in the midface
- Removes loose skin and excess fatty deposits under the chin and jaw
- Restores a more youthful and refreshed appearance
- Can be combined with other procedures for optimal results
- Anesthesia
General anesthesia is administered for your comfort during the surgical procedure. - Incision
A modern facelift incision is well-hidden, beginning in the hairline at the temples, continuing about the ear, and ending in the lower scalp. The structural deep plane is lifted to provide a natural, youthful improvement in the aging process. - Fat Grafting
Volume restoration of the midface harmonizes the appearance of the midface and restores a youthful verve. - Closing the incisions
The incisions are meticulously closed with sutures. Once healed, the incision lines from a facelift are well concealed within the hairline and in the natural contours of the face and ear. - Results
The visible improvements in volume and reduction of excess skin are evident immediately, but the final result will not be apparent until the swelling and bruising subside. The longevity of the result is married to the technique used. Your final result should not only restore a more youthful and rested appearance but also help you feel more confident about yourself.
