Facelift is also known as rhytidectomy, a cosmetic surgery procedure that helps give your face a more youthful appearance.

What happens during a facelift/face reshaping procedure?

Step 1: Anaesthesia
Face reshaping is a long procedure, usually about 4 hours give or take. So general anaesthesia is the preferred choice because patients can't stay still for 4 hours under local anaesthesia.

During this phase also, a variety of other procedures can be done to further enhance the outcome of the facelift or face reshaping procedure. These include:

Facial implants
Soft tissue augmentation to recontour your facial structure
Resurfacing techniques to improve the tone and texture of your facial skin
Wrinkle reduction via injections
Step 2: The Incision
Depending on the degree of change you'd like to see, your facelift choices include a traditional facelift, limited incision facelift, or a neck lift (this should be decided in the discussion phase pre-surgery!)

A facelift incision often begins at the hairline at the temples of your head, and continues around your ears and ends in the lower scalp section.

Fats may be sculpted or redistributed around your face, jowls and neck, and underlying tissues can also be repositioned. The deeper layers of your facial skin and muscles are also lifted.

Your skin is then re-draped over the uplifted contours and excess skin is trimmed away. A second incision under the chin may be necessary to further improve an aging neck.

Step 3: Closing the incisions
Sutures or skin adhesives are used to close the incisions.

Once these incisions are healed, the incision lines from the facelift procedure are well concealed within the hairline and in the natural contours of the face and ear, so no visible marks on your face!

Step 4: See the results
The visible improvements of a facelift or face reshaping procedure will appear as the swelling and bruising subside.

Your final result should not only restore a more youthful and rested appearance, but also help you feel more confident about yourself!
