Overview
A Facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a transformative surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate the face by addressing signs of aging. Over time, factors such as gravity, stress, and environmental exposure can lead to sagging skin, deep wrinkles, and loss of facial volume. A facelift tightens underlying muscles, removes excess skin, and redefines facial contours, resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance. This procedure is popular among individuals seeking to restore their natural beauty and regain confidence without altering their unique features

Is a Facelift Right for Me?
You may be a suitable candidate for a facelift if:
You are experiencing sagging skin, deep folds, or jowls.
You have lost facial volume or definition along the jawline and cheeks.
You are in good overall health and maintain a stable weight.
You desire long-lasting facial rejuvenation and have realistic expectations.
Non-surgical treatments are no longer providing the desired results.
About the Procedure
A facelift is a highly personalised procedure tailored to each individual’s unique facial anatomy
and aesthetic goals. The surgery is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes 2–5
hours, depending on the extent of the treatment.
The procedure begins with incisions strategically placed along the hairline and around the ears to minimize visible scarring. The underlying facial muscles and tissues are gently tightened to restore structure and definition. Excess skin is removed, and the remaining skin is carefully repositioned for a natural, youthful contour. Advanced techniques may also address specific areas, such as the neck, for a more harmonious result.
Following the surgery, patients are advised to wear a supportive garment to aid healing and reduce swelling. Recovery times vary, but most patients return to light activities within 1–2 weeks, with results becoming more apparent as swelling subsides over the following months.
