Face Lift Information, Pictures, Photos Before/After |
Face lift surgery is a surgical procedure designed to smooth the loose
skin on the facial skin, jowls, and neck in both
men and women. Candidates for a facelift include
those with deep lines or folds (nasolabial folds)
running from the corner of the nose to the corner
of the mouth, loss of a well-defined jawline, deep
wrinkles in the cheeks, and loose skin, wrinkles,
and "cords" or excess fat in the neck.
In this procedure, underlying tissues are tightened,
excess fat is removed, and the skin is gracefully
re-draped for a natural and more youthful appearance.
A facelift (technically known as rhytidectomy) can't
stop the aging process. What it can do is "set
back the clock," improving the most visible
signs of aging by removing excess fat, tightening
underlying muscles, and redraping the skin of your
face and neck. A facelift can be done alone, or
in conjunction with other procedures such as a forehead
lift, eyelid surgery, or nose reshaping. |
If the patient has had an original face lift operation
a "preventive maintenance program" can
then be implemented. This is particularly indicated
in younger individuals who can maintain a youthful
facial appearance for the remainder of their life
by having periodic "tuck ups" every few
years. This is not uncommon among Hollywood personalities.
Patients with systemic diseases, high blood pressure,
heart disease, or obesity are not acceptable candidates
for this type of surgery. Patients with a short,
stocky neck cannot expect the same amount of improvement
as those with more favorable anatomy.
The operation is usually performed with local
anaesthesia and sedation. The incisions are made
inside the hair line wherever possible but the
hair is not cut before the operation. The hair,
though, should be shampooed thoroughly before
entering the hospital. Infrequently there may
be some thinning of the hair for a short distance
on each side of the incision line. If this occurs,
the thin area can be covered by combing the adjacent
hair over it. The site of the incisions will be
discussed during the preoperative visit. There
is little pain and discomfort following the operation.
Remember that the swelling and discolourations
are temporary, as are minor changes in the configuration
of the hair line which may occur and are usually
unnoticed by the observers or even by the patients.
There may be some areas of numbness particularly
around the ear which improve to a great extent
within three to six months. Some patches of numbness
may persist indefinitely.
Closing of the incisions is performed in such
a manner as to exert no tension on the lines in
front of the ear, where the scars are usually
inconspicuous without makeup. The tension resulting
from the stretched and lifted tissue is thus distributed
to the areas behind the ear and the back of the
ear skirting the hair line. These scars are therefore
destined to be more visible and have to be camouflaged
by combing the hair. At times, they may require
a small adjustment under local freezing eight
to twelve months after.
