Face lifting

What is face lifting?

Facelift is a aesthetic procedure that aims to improve the sagging of the face and neck, reducing the appearance of a “droopy face.” It can also improve facial lines, wrinkles, and folds. The procedure is often accompanied by neck liposuction, if needed, and facial fillers, which can be fat grafts or hyaluronic acid fillers, to restore lost volume and contour associated with aging.

For whom is it indicated?

More common among woman over 45 years old, it is indicated for people who have wrinkles, accentuated expression marks, loose and sagging skin around the eyes, cheeks, and neck, jowls, and sagging skin.

How is a face lifting performed?

Before undergoing a facelift, a comprehensive evaluation is necessary to ensure that the patient is fit for the procedure. The surgery can be performed under general anesthesia or sedation.

The procedure typically lasts about 4 hours, and the patient is usually discharged the following day.
