Facelift Surgery can make you Look as Young as You FeelAs we continue to live longer, healthier lives, more and more people are eager to "look as young as they feel." As a result, facelift surgery has become increasingly popular among women and men. The medical term for this procedure is rhytidectomy, meaning "removal of wrinkles." What facelift surgery does is remove or reposition excess sagging skin and soft tissue in the face and neck. The effect is as if you turned back the hands of a clock, often making you look as you did ten or sometimes fifteen years in the past. The major areas addressed by the facelift operation are the eyebrows, the cheek and jowl regions, and the neck. Eyelid surgery and skin resurfacing, while sometimes done at the same time as a facelift, are separate procedures. Surgical PhilosophyWe believe strongly in achieving a natural-appearing, rejuvenated look in facelift surgery, as opposed to an excessively tightened, "windblown" appearance. The goal is to make you look as you did at a younger age, not to make you look like a different person. Examples of Facelift SurgeryBefore (front) After (front) Before (oblique) After (oblique) Patient also had upper and lower eyelid surgery The Facelift ConsultationDuring your consultation for facelift surgery in our La Jolla, San Diego office, photographs will be taken for imaging purposes as well as for photodocumentation. Rest assured, your photos will not be shown to any other persons without your express permission. After you have had an opportunity to express your concerns and areas of desired improvement, your face and neck will be carefully examined, including skin and muscle tone, bone structure, fat distribution, etc. The position of your brows and cheek pads will be assessed to determine if you are a candidate for browlift or possibly midface lift. We may suggest additional or alternate procedures to complement your desired changes. Some common adjunctive procedures to facelift surgery are fat transfer, eyelid surgery, skin resurfacing, and lip augmentation, any of which may be performed at the same time. During your facelift surgery consultation you will have several opportunities to ask questions, and following the consultation our patient care coordinator will guide you through the surgery preparation and recovery processes.
