Many patients dread the loss of their youthful glow due to the natural aging process. Visible signs of aging like wrinkles, fine lines, and droopy skin lurk just around the corner and can seem impossible to avoid the older we become.

If you are looking to refresh and rejuvenate the appearance of your face, then you have likely considered undergoing facelift surgery. While there are some non-surgical options available, in many cases, a surgical facelift is the only way to truly change your appearance.

How Is Facelift Surgery Done?

Facelift surgery addresses facial imperfections along the mid and lower face to produce youthful and beautiful contours. Most patients have the option of undergoing either a mini or full facelift, depending on the amount of correction needed.

Incisions are usually made either behind the ears or along the hairline extending down to the temples and around the ears. Once the incision has been made, excess skin and fat are removed, and the underlying tissues are tightened and reshaped to create an aesthetically pleasing look.

Patients interested in undergoing this procedure will need to be in good health and have realistic expectations. If you are an active smoker, you will be asked to stop smoking before and after your procedure to help prevent complications during and after your surgery.

How Can Facelift Surgery Benefit Me?

There are several reasons why patients decide to have surgery done. Facelift surgery provides several benefits and can help you achieve the aesthetic results you have always wanted.

Tighter Facial Muscles

As we age, the underlying structures of our face can begin to weaken and cause our skin to lose tone and volume. The skin also begins to sag and droop, making our face appear unbalanced. Facelift surgery strategically tightens the underlying muscles of the face to restore firmness.

Youthful Contours

One of the many reasons patients desire surgery is to turn back the clock on their appearance. Wrinkles and fine lines can make anyone look older than they are. Facial imperfections can also cause patients to appear worn out or tired. Fortunately, facelift surgery enhances your overall facial appearance and produce youthful contours.

Improved Self-Esteem

Many patients feel self-conscious about the way they look when age starts catching up with them. Facelift surgery not only provides you with long-lasting results, but it can boost your confidence and make you look and feel better.
