Facelift
Restore Facial Contours Affected By Ageing
A Facelift is a surgical procedure performed to address signs of ageing in the face and neck, including skin laxity, deep folds and sagging tissues. The procedure involves repositioning underlying facial structures and removing or tightening excess skin to improve facial contours.
What Is Facelift?
A Facelift is designed to improve visible signs of facial ageing by restoring facial contours affected by skin laxity and tissue descent. During the procedure, the underlying facial tissues are repositioned before excess skin is removed or tightened, creating a smoother and more refreshed facial appearance. The procedure may also improve definition along the cheeks, jawline and neck.
