A facelift is designed to address sagging skin, deep creases, jowls, and loose skin along the jawline and neck. The goal is to restore a firmer, more youthful appearance without making you look “done” or unnatural.
Under general anesthesia or IV sedation, incisions are made discreetly along the hairline and around the ears. The underlying muscles and tissues are repositioned, excess skin is removed, and the remaining skin is redraped for a smoother contour.
Initial swelling and bruising subside in 10–14 days; most patients return to normal activities within 2–3 weeks.
Discomfort is manageable with medication during the first few days.
Incisions are hidden in natural contours and fade over time.
Many patients enjoy results for 10 years or more with proper skincare and lifestyle.
