Facelift Or Rhytidectomy
Afacelift,
technically
known
as
arhytidectomy"excision", surgical removal of
wrinkles), is a type ofcosmetic surgeryprocedure
used to give a more youthful facial appearance.
There are multiple surgical techniques. It usually
involves the removal of excess facial skin, with or
without the tightening of underlying tissues, and the
redraping of theskinon thepatient'sfaceandneck.

Facelift Procedure
A conventional facelift requires the surgeon to make
an incision from the patients hairline near the
temple, in front of the ear, under the ear, and
following the hairline toward the back of the head.
Some operations may involve another incision under
the chin to tighten and smooth a patients neck.
Unwanted fat, skin, and other tissues are excised,
and sutures may be used to tighten deeper layers of
tissue. The surgeon then repositions the remaining
skin in the desired location and closes the incisions
with sutures and staples.

Facelift Goals
A facelift is an operation performed to restore a
patients youthful appearance by removing or
reducing scars, wrinkles, loose skin, and fat
deposits.
Facelifts are most effective at diminishing loose
folds of skin around the neck area and tightening
skin over the cheeks.
