Understanding Facelift Surgery

Facelift surgery (rhytidectomy) is a sophisticated cosmetic procedure designed to dramatically improve visible signs of aging by addressing loose, sagging skin in the mid-to-lower facial region. The procedure focuses on tightening underlying facial muscles and smoothing fine lines to achieve a more youthful, refreshed appearance.

Facelift Procedure Overview

• Performed for individuals between ages 35-75
• Addresses sagging skin under the chin and along the jowls
• Often combined with complementary procedures like eyelid surgery

Surgical Technique

The facelift procedure involves a strategic incision beginning at the temple hairline, extending around the ear and into the scalp. Surgeons carefully reposition muscles and tissue, gently advancing sagging skin and trimming excess skin to create natural-looking rejuvenation.

Benefits of Facelift Surgery

• Restores facial volume and fullness
• Reduces nasolabial folds and smile lines
• Enhances cheekbone definition
• Tightens sagging facial and neck skin
• Minimizes fine lines and wrinkles

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect initial swelling and bruising for two to three weeks following surgery. Dramatic results become visible approximately three to four weeks post-procedure, with final outcomes fully realized around three months after the surgery.

Alternative Options

For patients seeking less invasive alternatives, the QuickLift® Facelift offers a minimally invasive option with shorter recovery time and natural-looking results focused on the mid-to-lower facial region.

Cost Considerations

Facelift surgery cost varies based on individual treatment plans. A personalized consultation will provide a comprehensive understanding of potential expenses, expected outcomes, and recommended approaches.
