Facelift

A facelift, known in medicine as rhytidectomy, lifts and repositions the sagging skin, muscle and deeper tissue of the face and neck to restore a younger, rested and more refreshed look. With age the skin loses firmness, the cheeks descend, folds deepen around the mouth and the jawline blurs as jowls form. A facelift gently lifts these layers back to where they once sat, removes the excess skin and re-drapes what remains, so the face looks naturally younger rather than pulled or operated on. Many people travel abroad for a facelift to reach experienced facial surgical teams, shorter waiting times and the chance to recover privately, away from their everyday surroundings.
