Face: Facelift
In time, gravity, sun exposure, and the stresses of daily life take their toll on our faces: deep creases appear beside the mouth, the jawline slackens, and folds and fat deposits appear on the neck. Aging is a complex process. The skin loses elasticity while the faces loses volume. Different areas of the face lose volume while other areas retain it and look heavy. The face changes shape from triangular in youth to square with age. A SMAS facelift will counteract these issues by removing excess damaged skin and restoring structures to their more youthful postion giving your face a fresher, youthful look. If necessary volume can be added with fillers or your own fat transferred from another region of your body. After surgery, some patients appear 10-15 years younger. Today there are so many procedures advertised from the S lift, Quicklift, MACS lift and deep plane it is hard to know what the right procedure is for you. The key to a great result is delicate treatment of the face, achieving adequate motion of the deep tissue and avoiding tension on the skin. These are the technical necessities. You must also have a surgeon with an artistic eye and a desire to restore your unique youthful appearance not simply tighten your skin and alter your appearance. Recovery is relatively quick with a return to work and socializing in 10-14 days.
The procedure can be combined with a browlift, eyelid surgery for more dramatic results, or it can be restricted to the neck (necklift) if your problem is centered there. Incisions are made in inconspicuous places such as behind the hairline and in natural folds of the ears, and scars fade to near invisibility in time. Results of a facelift do not last forever, but in another sense, the effects are permanent; years later, your face will continue to look better than if you had never had the procedure.
