Face Lift

Facelift also known as rhytidectomy, improves the signs of aging on the face and neck by repositioning loose skin.

The procedure aims to give a more youthful facial appearance whilst avoiding ‘over-stretched’ skin results. The rejuvenation results appear in the mid face area, the cheeks and the lower jaw line and neck using incisions that are hidden around and behind the ears and inside the hairline.

During your consultation with the doctor preceding the procedure, it is helpful to bring with you a facial photograph taken 10-15 years earlier.

  • Facelift plastic procedures are performed under general anesthesia and at least one overnight stay at the clinic is required after surgery.

  • Recovery time depends on possible additional surgical procedures. Light activity can begin on the first day and full recovery can be expected 6-8 weeks post-op.

  • Skin care and sun protection are essential during recovery.

  • The results are long lasting with an appearance looking at least 10 years younger. Even though natural aging will still occur, proper skin care and additional non surgical treatments can lengthen the results.

There are two approaches for such a procedure; open or closed technique. Most of the time, open technique is preferred as it allows more visibility for the surgeon to perform extensive correction. When correcting a nose, one takes into consideration the face’s other feature and proportions in order to match it to the other characteristic.

  • The procedure is done under general anesthesia and an overnight stay might be necessary.

  • Recovery depends on the extend of the nose surgery and any accompanying procedures. Light activities may commence from the next day and within 1-2 weeks you can return to your normal activities. The looks of your nose with improve gradually until 4-6 weeks after the surgery. The final shape will settle after 6-12 months.

  • Skin care and sun protection is necessary during the recovery period. Although the results are permanent, the soft tissue and cartilage of the nose can change with time
