A Face-Lift Surgery

It is a cosmetic surgical procedure that creates a younger appearance on the face. The procedure can reduce the dropping or folds of skin on the cheeks and jawline. The other changes in the shape of the face that occur with age can also be controlled. In this procedure, a flap of skin on each side of the face is pulled back. The tissues underneath the skin are surgically altered to urge back the contour of the face to a younger shape. Excess skin is removed before the flap is sealed. A neck lift is often done as part of a face-lift that reduces fat deposits and drooping skin on the neck. Although it does not decrease fine creases or wrinkles in your skin or damage from sun exposure.

The Procedure

This procedure can be easily done with sedation and local anaesthesia. It numbs only part of the body. Still some doctors recommend general anaesthesia which renders you unconscious.

During the procedure

A face-lift involves raising the skin and tightening the underlying tissues and muscles. Fat in the face and neck may be shaped, removed, or redistributed. Facial skin is then re-draped over the newly established contours of the face. The wound is stitched or taped closed once the excess skin is removed.

Different techniques of the procedure include:

1. A Traditional Face-Lift - It begins from your temples in the hairline and pursue down and around the front of ears. It ends behind the ears in the lower scalp. An incision is made under your chin to improve the appearance of your neck.
2. A Limited Incision - It is a shorter incision that begins from the hairline just above the ear. It wraps round the front of the ear and doesn't extend into the lower scalp.
3. Neck Lift Incision – It starts ahead of the earlobe and continues round the ear into the lower scalp. A small incision under the chin is made for the same.
