As we age, gravity takes its toll on our appearance,
leading to wrinkles, sagging skin, or fatty deposits.
This explains why you probably stare at the mirror, and the face staring back at you isn’t the one you remember (or wish for). If you have tried creams, facials, and other beauty treatments but to no avail, consider undergoing a facelift procedure. Depending on your goals, a facelift can help you achieve the facial transformation you dream of.
What is facelift?
Also known as rhytidectomy, a facelift is a surgical procedure to eliminate age-related changes on the face. It removes excess fat and tightens facial muscles to create a smoother, more youthful appearance.
A facelift may take place on the face, neck, or both, but the overall goal is to make changes caused by aging to return the contour of the face to a more youthful shape. Its results are long-lasting, so patients don’t have to worry about repeating the procedure.
At Ivanchuk’s Plastic Surgery Clinic, we employ a range of techniques to modify the eyes, brows, and other parts of the face to regain your young, firm, and beautiful face in the shortest possible time.
How does it work?
Before the procedure, your surgeon will give you some recommendations to prepare you for surgery to have the best possible results with minimal risks. Anesthetic is applied to minimize pain and discomfort.
During the procedure, the surgeon makes incisions in targeted areas. Next, your surgeon separates the skin from the fat and muscle below, trimming or suctioning fat to improve your facial contours. The surgeon also tightens tissues under the skin.
A facelift takes two to four hours but may take longer if combined with other plastic surgeries at the same time.
