Facelift

A facelift can make a person look 10 to 20 years younger. When contemplating a facelift, look at a photo of yourself from 10 to 15 years ago. This photo is a good indicator of the results you can expect.

Candidates for a facelift have too much loose skin, sagging cheeks, deep creases, jowls, and hanging skin beneath the chin at the neck area, caused by the natural aging process. A facelift is a plastic surgery procedure that improves the appearance of the whole facial area by reducing furrows, lines, and sagging, resulting in a more youthful appearance. The full facelift remains the gold standard because it can make you look 10 to 20 years younger while maintaining a natural appearance.

The mini-facelift reduces the amount of skin removed by about 50%. The degree of facial improvement is less and there is minimal, if any, improvement in the neck region. The mini-facelift is recommended for patients before the age of 50 who do not need improvement in the neck area.
