Modern Facelifting Techniques

  • SMAS facelift: This technique involves lifting and tightening the underlying facial muscles and tissues, which can help to restore a more youthful appearance.
  • Mini facelift: This less invasive procedure is designed to target specific areas of the face, such as the jawline and cheeks, and can be performed using smaller incisions.

How it Works

During a facelift, the surgeon makes small incisions and tightens the underlying muscles and tissues. Excess skin is removed, and the remaining skin is re-draped to create a smoother, firmer surface. The procedure is normally done with general anesthesia or IV sedation and the recovery time varies depending on the extent of the surgery. With careful attention to detail, a facelift can produce natural-looking results that last for years.

Facelift Benefits

With our Athēnix experts, you can experience the transformative effects of a facelift, which can provide remarkable improvements in your facial appearance.

  • Reduced wrinkles and sagging skin: Facelift surgery can reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin, giving you a smoother and more youthful complexion.
  • Improved facial contours: A facelift can improve the contours of your face, including your jawline and cheekbones, for a more defined and attractive appearance.
  • Improved skin tone and texture: Facelift surgery can help improve the tone and texture of your skin, giving you a more radiant and healthy-looking complexion.
  • Enhanced facial symmetry: A facelift can improve the symmetry of your face, creating a more balanced and harmonious appearance.
  • Customizable results: Facelift surgery can be tailored to your specific needs and goals, allowing you to achieve desired results.

Facelift Recovery

After a facelift, it's normal to experience some swelling and bruising, which usually subsides within a few weeks. Your surgeon may recommend wearing a compression garment to support healing and maintain your new contours. Most patients can return to work and light activities within a few days, with complete recovery typically achieved in a few weeks. Following your surgeon's aftercare instructions carefully ensures the best possible results.

Naturally Beautiful Results

Following a facelift, you can expect a more youthful, refreshed appearance as sagging skin and excess fat are removed and your natural contours are restored. As swelling subsides, you will begin to see the full results of your procedure. With proper care and maintenance, the results of your facelift can last for years, revitalizing your self-esteem and helping you feel confident in your appearance.
