Face Lift
A facelift is a surgical procedure that provides a more youthful appearance to the face by tightening facial tissue and gently repositioning underlying muscles. Unfortunately, signs of aging, weight fluctuations, or sun damage can alter the structure and position of the facial features that make you unique.
Face Lift:
"Reclaim Youthful Elegance, Renew Your Confidence"
Everyone deserves to feel confident and radiant. A youthful, firm face with smooth contours not only enhances your appearance but also boosts your mental well-being and self-esteem. Unfortunately, as we age, external factors like stress and gravity take a toll, causing skin to sag, wrinkles to form, and facial lines to deepen. These natural changes can impact how we feel about ourselves, but there are ways to restore a refreshed, rejuvenated look and reclaim your confidence.
During the procedure, the skin of the face is lifted and pulled to create a tighter, firmer appearance, increasing contour and youthful definition. Patients may opt for a full facelift, or for a mini-facelift that focuses exclusively on the lower face, lifting the mouth and jaw area, as well as the chin and throat.

Reposition the skin of the face and neck to restore a firmer, more youthful contour. - Reduce Wrinkles and Fine Lines:

Procedure time
Typically 2 to 4 hours, depending on the complexity of the surgery and the areas being treated.
Number of nights in hospital
Generally none; most facelifts are outpatient procedures, and patients can go home the same day. In some cases, an overnight stay may be recommended for monitoring.
Recovery
Initial recovery takes about 1 to 2 weeks, during which swelling and bruising subside. Most patients can return to normal activities within 2-3 weeks, with full recovery and final results visible after about 4 to 6 months.
Frequently Asked Question
Questions you might ask about our services.
A facelift is a surgical procedure designed to lift and tighten the skin on the face and neck to reduce sagging, wrinkles, and other signs of aging. It typically addresses the lower face, jawline, neck, and sometimes the midface for a more youthful, defined appearance.
Facelift results can last anywhere from 7 to 10 years or more, depending on factors like the patient's age, skin type, and lifestyle. While a facelift won't stop the aging process, it can significantly delay its visible effects.
While a facelift can significantly reduce the appearance of wrinkles, it may not eliminate them completely. Deep creases and fine lines caused by sun damage or other factors may require additional treatments such as laser resurfacing or chemical peels to achieve optimal results.
There is no set age for a facelift. The procedure is ideal for healthy patients in their 40s to 70s who display prominent signs of facial aging. Younger patients might consider non-surgical options or a mini facelift.
A facelift will address the lower 1/3 of the face and neck, primarily from the lower cheeks down to the neck area. A Mini-Lift treats the cheek area alone.
