Facelift
What can the procedure achieve?

A facelift can make you look younger, more lively and more cheerful. Consequently, it can have real benefits for your self-esteem.

The effect of a facelift is to make patients look significantly younger by reversing the effects of gravity on the lower face and neck. During a facelift procedure, the deep fat pads of the face and the muscular layer known as the SMAS will be elevated to increase the prominence of the upper cheek and reduce the nasolabial folds, the marionette lines (from the corner of the mouth down to the chin) and the jowls. In addition, a facelift procedure can be modified to address excessive fat deposits in the neck and laxity of the neck muscles. This improves the contour of the neck. Fine wrinkling will be reduced but not eliminated.
