Performed By A Plastic Surgeon A Facelift Turns Back the Hands of Time



A face lift is capable of improving the most visible signs of aging by sculpting and tightening the deeper foundation and structures of the face and neck. As a person ages, the effects of sun exposure, gravity, smoking, heredity, weight fluctuations, and the stresses of daily life begin to show themselves in their face. A rhytidectomy procedure can bring back youth to a person's face. In youth, a face is smooth and firm due to proper positioning of normal facial fat and good skin elasticity. As a person ages, muscle tone and skin elasticity weaken and facial fat descends which causes prominent skin folds and deep creases between the corner of the mouth and nose. A person's jowls become more prominent along with loose skin and fat deposits in the neck.

A rhytidectomy procedure will not be able to stop this process, but it is capable of "turning back the hands of time." A face lift (sometimes referred to as a frhytidectomy) is made to reduce much of the loeeseness and many of the heavy folds and wrinkles of the neck and face. The surgery will also improve the contour of a person's necklines and jaw. However, a face lift will not completely remove every line, wrinkle, and fold. There is a limited amount of improvement around the eyes and with fine lines of the facial skin. A face lift alone will not be able to improve acne scars, "smoker's" lines around the mouth, or poor complexion. Other options are available to treat these various problems including chemical peels, dermabrasion, and laser treatment.

Many times a rhytidectomy procedure will be combined with a browlift or forehead lift, lower and/or upper eyelid surgery, and cheek augmentation. Chin implants are frequently placed to improve a person's profile proportions of their jaw line and also to increase the projection of their chin. These various additional surgeries can be performed at the same time and in combination with a neck lift and rhytidectomy procedure or as their own surgery at a later time. Plastic surgeons usually offer a wide range of facial implants that are capable of enhancing one's facial features. Though facial implants can be used exclusively, they are often incorporated with other facial plastic surgery procedures such as a nose job, blepharoplasty, face lift, or forehead lift surgery.

A facial implant will add contour to a person's face and create more attractive proportions. These facial implants are commonly used in the jaw, cheeks, and chin. Facial implant surgery is performed on an outpatient basis. A similar surgery will be performed for most facial implants. Typically a small incision will be created the the location of the implant and a pocket will be created on top of the bone followed by an implant insertion. The incisions will then be sutured for healing and normal activities can be resumed about a week after the procedure.
