What is a facelift?

Age and gravity can take a toll on your face. Once youthful facial contours dissipate with
a loss of skin elasticity, loss of volume and muscle tone, and deepened lines and
wrinkles. Fortunately, with modern technology and the help of our skilled surgical team,
you no longer need to leave your youthful looks behind as you age.

A facelift, or rhytidectomy, serves to reshape the facial contours and renew a youthful
and aesthetically pleasing appearance. This popular procedure can help create a more
youthful version of yourself. Incisions are hidden along the hairline and folds of the ears.
Excess skin and tissue are removed, facial muscles are tightened, and deep folds are
smoothed. Depending on your aesthetic goals, a facelift can be combined with other
facial rejuvenation procedures, such as browlift, lip lift, eyelid lift, buccal fat reduction,
facial fat grafting, and laser resurfacing.

Facelifts are delicate procedures, requiring artistic skill and attention to detail. Our
board-certified surgeons will combine their surgical artistry with the latest techniques
such as the deep plane facelift to give you a rejuvenated, youthful appearance with
beautiful, natural results.

FAQs

What are the steps of a facelift procedure?

A typical facelift incision is concealed within the sideburn hairline, within the natural contour of the ears, within the groove behind the ears, and finally the hairline behind the ears. There are several different types of facelifts which are surgeon-specific. Once the incision is made, the deeper tissues of the face are tightened, and excess skin is removed. Volume may be added with your own fat depending on your surgeon.
