A facelift, also known as wrinkle removal, is one of the most popular surgical procedures in cosmetic surgery. It aims to improve visible signs of aging in the face and neck. With a facelift, we achieve a firmer, more naturally youthful appearance, reducing the sagging of skin that naturally occurs over time.
A facelift addresses sagging and loose skin on the face, deep wrinkles between the nose and the edges of the mouth, loss or displacement of fat, and sagging skin on the cheeks and jawline. In addition, this procedure targets loose skin and excess fat in the neck, which can contribute to the formation of a double chin.
The S.M.A.S. (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System) Facelift is one of the most popular and effective facelift techniques, offering substantial lifting of sagging tissues. Unlike traditional facelifts, which often focus on pulling the external skin and can result in an unnatural appearance, the S.M.A.S. Facelift targets deeper tissues. This approach provides a more natural and long-lasting outcome, with results that can be maintained for up to 20 years.
The Deep Plane Lift technique achieves significant changes in the appearance of the face and neck, effectively restoring the face to its position from 15 years ago. This is accomplished through a discreet incision made just in front of the ear, allowing access to the S.M.A.S. layer. The lift is then performed diagonally, moving tissues backward and upward. This technique reconstructs the youthful oval shape of the face, enhancing its overall contour and appearance.
Additionally, the Deep Plane Lift improves the shape and volume of the cheekbones while reducing nasolabial folds and shadows under the lower eyelids. This comprehensive rejuvenation not only enhances physical appearance but also boosts the confidence of individuals undergoing the procedure.
A facelift is a procedure designed to reshape the deeper skin structures and restore a youthful appearance. However, in cases of significant volume loss in the cheekbones or cheeks, additional enhancement becomes essential. For this reason, a facelift is often combined with lipotransfer to replenish lost volume and improve facial expression and firmness.
Lipotransfer involves harvesting fat from other areas of the patient’s body, such as the abdomen or thighs. After specialized processing, this fat is injected into the face to "fill in" areas affected by volume loss, delivering a natural and harmonious result. Commonly treated areas include the cheeks, temples, and under-eye regions.
The procedure is further enhanced by incorporating stem cells extracted from the patient’s own fat, which help regenerate tissue and ensure longer-lasting, improved outcomes. This combination of techniques provides a comprehensive solution for patients seeking to reverse the signs of aging and restore their youthful appearance in a natural, balanced way.
If the soft tissues of your face and neck show significant sagging, deep wrinkles, a pronounced double chin, and loose cheekbones, you are likely a suitable candidate for a facelift. However, if your skin lacks sufficient elasticity or if you are significantly overweight, this procedure may not be appropriate for you.
It is also important to understand that a facelift is not a permanent solution to aging. The natural aging process will continue, and you may require additional procedures in the future to maintain your youthful appearance.
