Aging, gravity, exposure to the sun, and daily stress can cause facial creases, loose facial skin, and age marks. These unavoidable elements will eventually have their effects on our facial skin appearance and health. A surgical facelift can be a solution for people who are dealing with aging signs and would like to rejuvenate their facial appearance for a rejuvenated and more youthful look. Although it is not a permanent solution, it can serve as a means to fix loose skin, deep creases, and wrinkles to smooth out the surface of the skin.
Can A Surgical Facelift Work for Me?
Candidates for a surgical facelift are between 40 and 60 years of age, with skin that is elastic and healthy enough to adapt and smooth out. It also helps to have a well-defined facial bone structure to serve as a framework during assessment and surgery. This surgery has also been performed on people who are older than 60, dependent on the condition of their facial skin. As we age, our skin tends to lose elastin and collagen, adding to the signs of aging around facial features such as the eyes and mouth. It also contributes to loose skin in the facial area.
The Procedure
A surgical facelift removes aging signs in the face by tightening the skin to smooth out the surface and remove any creases around the mouth. It also deals with fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes. The surgeon corrects any loose skin around the neck and may also trim or remove excess fat for a slimmer and smoother skin surface. The chin and neck areas can carry fat deposits, which can be reduced with a surgical facelift as well.
