What Is a Facelift?


A facelift, technically known as a rhytidectomy, is a comprehensive surgical procedure that rejuvenates the lower two-thirds of the face. By gently tightening underlying muscles, repositioning soft tissues, and removing excess skin, a facelift restores smoother, firmer contours and softens deep lines and folds. The result is a naturally refreshed appearance that can last 5–10 years or longer, depending on individual skin health and lifestyle.

Common Areas of Improvement

  • Sagging cheeks and midface
  • Deep nasolabial folds (smile lines)
  • Jowls or loss of jawline definition
  • Marionette lines around the mouth
  • Hollow areas beneath the eyes
  • Lax skin or “banding” along the neck
  • Double chin or fullness under the jaw

The Benefits of a Facelift

  • Lifts sagging cheeks and jawline for a youthful contour
  • Smooths deep wrinkles and folds, including nasolabial and marionette lines
  • Tightens and refines the neck area for a firmer silhouette
  • Improves facial balance and symmetry
  • Enhances definition along the chin and jawline
  • Delivers results that look elegant, not overdone
  • Provides lasting rejuvenation with natural movement and expression
  • For comprehensive rejuvenation, your facelift can be paired with eyelid surgery, a brow lift, or a neck lift for harmonious, all-over refinement

How a Facelift Works


During your facelift at our Brentwood center, your surgeon makes discreet incisions around the hairline and natural ear creases to minimize visibility. Through these openings, the underlying muscles and connective tissue (SMAS layer) are gently lifted and secured to a more youthful position. Excess skin is removed, and the remaining skin is redraped for a smooth, refined finish.

Depending on your needs, your facelift may be performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. Every detail is customized to ensure a balanced, natural outcome that complements your facial anatomy.

The Recovery Process


Mild swelling and bruising are expected in the first one to two weeks and gradually fade as healing progresses. You may be advised to wear a supportive garment to minimize swelling and maintain contour.

Most Brentwood patients feel ready to return to light activities within 7–10 days, with full recovery and final results typically visible within 4–6 weeks. Your surgeon will provide you with detailed post-operative care instructions to ensure a smooth and comfortable recovery, as well as optimal healing.

Naturally Beautiful, Lasting Results


As the swelling subsides, you’ll see refined facial contours, smoother skin, and a more youthful, uplifted appearance, without the “pulled” look of older techniques. Results are long-lasting, and with good skincare, sun protection, and healthy habits, your refreshed look can be enjoyed for years to come.
