Facelift Surgery is also known as rhytidectomy. It is a surgical procedure to lift and tightens sagging facial tissue.
As we grow older, our facial skin loses its tone and elasticity and becomes sagging, even losing its volume. There is a jowl over the lower face, deepening of natural facial folds appear on the face. All these changes lead you towards an older-looking appearance and depressive look, which leads to a decrease in self-confidence.
Facelift surgery leads you to regain your youthful appearance and restore facial symmetry.
The extent of the procedure depends on the amount of sagging. Various type of facelift includes:
- Thread facelift
