FACIAL LIFTING

 

The face is one of the most exposed parts of our body and it can age quickly. Wrinkles, fine lines and slowing down can drastically affect your appearance.

The facelift procedure is a surgical procedure performed on both men and women that has the role of rejuvenating the face and removing excess skin and facial wrinkles. Through it, the facial muscles are repositioned, stabilized, the rejuvenating effect providing resistance over time.

This type of facelift removes excess skin, smoothes wrinkles and wrinkles, tightens facial tissue by repositioning the contour of the face.

Sometimes the procedure can be combined with raising the eyebrows and eyelid surgery to get better results.

The result is a rejuvenated appearance with durability over time.

Patients sometimes worry about scars, but Dr. Pascal will make the incisions in less visible places, such as the hairline and the natural folds of the face and ears. Scars can fade over time and become invisible.

WHEN FACIAL LIFTING IS NEEDED:

 

–        The skin of the face has sagged;

–        The cheeks are drooping;

–        When the folds that form under the lower eyelids or around the lower lip have become deep;

–        When you have excess skin on the jaw line (jaws);

–        If the contour has disappeared and excess fat has appeared on the neck;

–        If the skin has tightened at the neck and the platinum bands have become visible.

 

FACIAL LIFTING TYPES

 

Cervico-facial lifting –reshapes and rejuvenates the cheekbone, chin and neck region.

HOW THE SURGERY GOES

Dr. Pascal will make an incision in front of the ear, extended to the temple, in the skin of the scalp, and posteriorly, behind the ear. Finally, the skin will be stretched and the excess removed.

This operation lasts for several hours and it is performed under general anesthesia.

POST-SURGERY INDICATIONS:

It is recommended to stay hospitalized for 1-2 days. Checks after surgery are done every 2 days (until the 14th day when the last sutures are removed). The bandages are maintained for up to 7-10 days. Recovery and rest from daily activity are over in 10-14 days. A slight numbness of the face skin may persist for several weeks. Postoperative scars are visible at first (1-3 months) but will disappear almost completely after about 6-9 months.

RESULTS:

A firmer and more tonified appearance of the facial skin;

Wrinkle removal;

Facial adipose tissue is strategically redistributed.
