Facial Rejuvenation in the Atlanta Metro Area
As individuals age, gravity, sun exposure, and daily stress can significantly impact facial appearance. A facelift helps Marietta and Atlanta, Georgia residents reduce signs of aging and achieve a more rested, refreshed look. The board-certified plastic surgeons at Plastic Surgery Center of the South specialize in creating natural, personalized facelift results.
Understanding Facelift Techniques
A facelift, or rhytidectomy, rejuvenates the face by addressing multiple layers of facial tissue. The procedure involves tightening underlying facial structures, repositioning excess fat, and carefully redraping skin to restore a youthful contour.
Advanced Facelift Approaches
- Deep Plane Facelift
- SMAS Facelift
- Short Scar (Mini) Facelift
Facelift Procedure Goals
Patients typically seek facelift surgery to achieve:
- A more youthful and refreshed appearance
- Smoother, firmer facial skin
- Reduced deep creases around the nose and mouth
- Enhanced facial contours
Procedure Considerations
Facelift surgery is typically performed as an outpatient procedure. Incisions are strategically placed within natural facial contours, allowing for inconspicuous healing. The specific technique depends on individual patient characteristics and aesthetic goals.
Recovery and Results
Recovery varies by patient but generally follows a predictable timeline. Most patients can return to work within two weeks and see final results around the six-month mark. The procedure typically provides results lasting 7-10 years.
Nonsurgical Alternatives
For patients not ready for surgical intervention, nonsurgical options include liquid facelifts using dermal fillers and BOTOX®, or innovative treatments like ellacor® micro-coring.
