Facelift
Restore Natural Facial Contours With Comprehensive Facial Rejuvenation
A Facelift is a surgical procedure that addresses visible signs of facial ageing by repositioning deeper facial tissues and refining excess skin. Rather than simply tightening the skin, a facelift restores structural support to create smoother facial contours, improved jawline definition and a naturally refreshed appearance.
What Is Facelift?
A Facelift is a doctor-performed surgical procedure designed to treat facial skin laxity, sagging tissues and deep facial folds associated with ageing. During the procedure, the underlying facial structures are carefully repositioned before excess skin is refined, helping restore youthful facial proportions while maintaining natural facial expression.
Depending on your individual anatomy and treatment goals, a facelift may also be combined with complementary procedures such as a Neck Lift, Brow Lift or eyelid surgery for more comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

How a FaceLift Works
What to Expect
-
Your surgeon evaluates facial ageing, skin quality, tissue laxity and facial proportions before developing a personalised surgical plan.
-
The procedure is typically performed under local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia, depending on the treatment plan.
-
Incisions are usually placed around the hairline and ears. The deeper facial tissues are repositioned before excess skin is refined and the incisions are carefully closed.
-
Swelling, bruising and mild discomfort are expected during the first two to three weeks. Patients should avoid strenuous activities while healing.
-
As swelling gradually subsides over the following weeks and months, facial contours become smoother and more defined, revealing a refreshed appearance that remains natural and balanced.

Not Sure If A Facelift Is Right For You?
Facial ageing develops differently for every individual. During your consultation, our surgeons will assess your facial anatomy, degree of skin laxity and treatment goals to determine whether a Facelift is the most appropriate option or whether less invasive treatments such as Thread Lift, Ultherapy®, biostimulators or regenerative skin therapies may better suit your needs. Every treatment recommendation is tailored to achieve natural, balanced and long-lasting results.
