Understanding Facelift Procedures

A facelift, medically known as rhytidectomy, is a sophisticated surgical procedure designed to lift and tighten sagging facial skin, restoring a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance. As facial tissues naturally lose elasticity with age, this procedure addresses multiple signs of aging by repositioning underlying tissues and removing excess skin.

Facelift Candidacy and Indications

Ideal candidates for facelift surgery typically exhibit the following characteristics:

• Physically healthy individuals
• Non-smokers
• Patients without medical conditions affecting healing
• Ages 40-60 with moderate skin elasticity

Areas of Improvement

A facelift can effectively address multiple facial aging concerns, including:

• Sagging cheek appearance
• Excess skin along the lower jawline
• Deep nasolabial folds
• Neck skin laxity and potential double chin
