FACE AND NECK Lift

A face lift, technically known as rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure which intends to remove excess fat, tighten underlying muscles, and reposition the skin on your face and neck.  

A facelift is designed to improve the visible signs of ageing. It will not stop the ageing process but can change the overall appearance of the face. Patients between the ages of 40 and 70 years of age are suitable candidates for a face lift.

A facelift starts with incisions made along the hairline, along the ear and around the earlobe. Excess skin is lifted and the underlying muscles are tightened and secured with sutures.

Depending on the condition of your skin and your desired results, the procedure may take up to three hours. Side effects may include swelling, numbness, bruising, and tightness, but most patients report little pain and only minor discomfort.This procedure can be combined with other surgery such as blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) or a brow lift.

Disclaimer: The images displayed in this gallery depict various stages of post-operative healing, ranging from as early as 10 days to up to 3 months after surgery. They may show differences in pre-operative anatomy, as well as common post-surgical features such as bruising, swelling, immature scarring (which may appear red and raised), and temporary asymmetries or distortions, including in the areola shape. These images are unedited and are presented strictly for educational purposes. Please note that every patient heals differently, and final results may take 6 to 12 months to become fully apparent. Surgical outcomes vary based on individual factors including anatomy, lifestyle, genetics, and healing capacity. All before-and-after images are shared with patient consent. The outcomes shown are specific to each individual and may not be representative of results for others.
