Regain Confidence, refresh and Rejuvenate Your Appearance with a Natural-Looking Facelift
A face-lift is a surgical procedure performed to improve the most visible signs of the ageing process, by eliminating excess fat, tightening the muscles beneath the skin of the face and neck, and remove any sagging skin.
Turn back the clock and achieve a smoother, more vibrant complexion
Reverse the signs of ageing and gravity with a facelift type of procedure. There is a choice of operations for facial rejuvenation according to your needs and the area of interest. The results are invisible, natural and never overdone.
Mark has extensive experience in performing this type of surgery and his artistic idea with surgery is something that looks like it belongs.
Benefits of a Facelift
- Reduced wrinkles
- Improved facial contours
- Firmer, lifted skin
- A more youthful and rested appearance
- Boosted self-esteem
Addressing Concerns
- Is a facelift painful? Generally facelift surgeries are not painful, the recovery is fast and within 2 weeks you will be back to normal activities
- Will I look unnatural? – The results are invisible, natural and never overdone.
What to Expect During a Facelift
There are many different type of facelift procedures according to the area than needs revitalising and the technique used to achieve that.
The face is comprised of 4 areas, namely the brow area or upper face, the midface (the triangular area under your eyes and next to the nose, the face proper (the rest of the face up to the level of the mandible) and the neck. The eyes are interconnected as eye surgery can be done alongside a facelift type procedure.
Depending on the area of interest and the degree of improvement we have different type of procedures eg brow lift (that is usually endoscopic, through some minor scars inside the hairline), mid-face lifts (that can be done on its own from a small incision under the eyes or in combination with a full face lift).
A full facelift usually includes the lateral face and neck and is done through some incisions around the ear. Sometimes the neck area requires a separate incision under the chin, and that would be a neck lift proper. There is also combinations of these techniques tailored for the individual that provide bespoke solutions. This will be discussed in detail at your consultation where we decide on best approach and surgery type.
Through these incisions we access the deeper layers of the face, the SMAS layer (eg a deep plane face lift)and the neck and we tighten appropriately using the best technique for the individual as there is no such thing as one technique fits all.
The idea is to reverse gravitational pull and restore the normal anatomy without distorting the tissues and the natural look. Many times, we have to supplement the lifting procedure with a lip lift procedure (as also the upper lip is an area that ages) and also volume restoration with fat grafting as ageing comes with volume loss in the face.
Important Considerations
- The results of any properly carried out facelift should be lasting but remember the cosmetic surgery cannot halt the ageing process.
- Before you decide to have surgery, think carefully about your expectations and discuss them at your consultation.
