What is a facelift?
A variety of factors can cause the skin and muscles in the face to lose elasticity as we age. Smoking, genetics, and even exposure to the sun’s harmful UV rays can lead to saggy skin and wrinkles around the mouth, nose, eyes, and forehead. For those experiencing these common signs of aging, a facelifts procedure can help turn back the clock and return to a more youthful, refreshed appearance.
Also known as rhytidectomy, a facelift is a surgical procedure that helps to improve the signs of aging on the face and neck. This includes sagging skin, deep creases, and loss of muscle tone. During the procedure, excess skin is removed, and underlying tissues are tightened to create a more youthful appearance.

What happens during a facelift procedure?
The facelift procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia and takes several hours to complete. Incisions are made around the ears and hairline, and excess skin is removed. The underlying muscles and tissues are then lifted and tightened to create a more youthful appearance. The incisions are closed with sutures, and patients are usually able to return home the same day.
What is the recovery process like?
After a facelift procedure, patients will experience some swelling, bruising, and discomfort. However, these symptoms can be managed with pain medication and rest. Most patients are able to return to work and regular activities within two weeks, but strenuous exercise should be avoided for several weeks.
