Procedure Overview
A Face Lift (Rhytidectomy) is the ultimate facial rejuvenation procedure. It tightens the underlying muscle layers (SMAS), lifts sagging cheeks, refines the jawline, and removes excess loose skin to take 10 to 15 years off your appearance with natural-looking results.
Key Aspects & Outcomes:
- Realigns sagging cheeks, deep nasolabial folds, and jowls.
- Tightens the SMAS muscle layer to ensure long-lasting results.
- Discreet incision lines hidden behind the ears and along the hairline.

Lisa M. (USA)Treatment Stages
A detailed technical explanation of the procedure stages during your clinical appointment.
SMAS Muscular Tightening
The surgeon lifts and tightens the deep SMAS muscle layer rather than just pulling the skin, preventing a 'windblown' look.
Skin Draping
Facial skin is gently redraped over the new support structure, and excess skin is carefully excised.
Suture Removal
Fine sutures are removed in 7-10 days, and swelling decreases significantly by the second week.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get professional medical answers to common patient concerns regarding Face Lift.
No. A premium facelift repositions the deep SMAS muscle layers and lifts the tissues vertically, restoring your natural jawline and cheek volume from 10-15 years ago, without the tight 'wind tunnel' look.
Incisions start in the hairline at the temples, extend down in front of the ear (hidden in natural creases), and wrap behind the earlobe. Once healed, they are virtually invisible.
Pain is surprisingly mild and easily managed with oral medications. Most swelling and bruising resolve in 10-14 days, which is when most patients feel comfortable going out or returning to work.
A surgical deep-plane facelift lasts between 10 to 15 years as it structurally repairs the muscles. Thread lifts are temporary and last only 6 to 12 months.
You can gently wash your hair with baby shampoo 48 hours post-op. However, you must wait at least 4 to 6 weeks before using harsh hair dyes or chemical treatments near the healing incisions.
