Facelift
What can we achieve?
- A more youthful appearance
- Diminished fine lines and wrinkles
- Correction of sagging skin and removal of excess fat to reveal tighter firmer skin
Procedures:
- Frontal facelift
- Mid third facelift
- Neck lift
Pain: Moderate
Scars:
- Incisions are placed inconspicuously along hairline so that the resulting scar is concealed
- Incisions may extend around the ears into the lower hairline
- Scars fade over time and are almost invisible
Recovery:
- After surgery the face is gently wrapped in bandages
- You will have a small drainage tube that will be removed usually one day after the surgery
- Inflammation and bruising will gradually disappear
- The recovery time depends on the technique used and how extensive the correction is
- Usually 2-3 weeks of rest
- * The surgery may be done as an outpatient procedure or you may need to stay overnight depending on the extent of the surgery
