As with any type of cosmetic procedure, there are certain criteria that make people better candidates for a facelift than others. A combination of physical and psychological factors ultimately determines whether or not you are a good fit for a facelift. Since it is surgery, you’ll need to have clear skin that’s free of infections. You should not have any medical conditions that could hinder the healing process. Psychologically, you should have a realistic expectation and a positive outlook about the end result.
What is a Facelift?
A facelift is a procedure that restores the skin’s youthful look. It may be used to treat several different areas of the face, including the midface, the neck and chin, and the area around the eyes. During the procedure, you will have surgery to either remove excess skin on your face, tighten the underlying tissues, or both. Sometimes, the procedures are combined with other types of cosmetic procedures to produce the most effective results.
What Does a Facelift Address?
A facelift, also called a rhytidectomy, eliminates signs of aging in the face and neck. This might include sagging skin, increased fold lines between the nose and mouth, and fat that has been lost. Jowls may start to appear in the jaw and cheeks, and you may start to notice excess fat or loose skin in your neck that gives the appearance of a double chin.
Depending on your areas of concern, your facelift may include fixing any number of the problem areas on your face. The procedure is customized based on your wants and needs.
