Facelift Surgery (Rhytidectomy)

With factors like aging, gravity, and sun exposure, facial skin sags and loses its elasticity. Facelift surgery (Rhytidectomy) is the most effective solution to reverse these effects.

Deep Plane Facelift

A modern technique, Deep Plane Facelift, releases and repositions not only the skin but also the muscle and tissue layer (SMAS) underneath. This ensures: - **Natural Results:** No "wind tunnel" or overly tight look. - **Longevity:** Results can last for 10-15 years. - **Volume Restoration:** Volume loss in the cheeks is addressed.

Recovery Process

The surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia. Bruising and swelling subside within 2 weeks. Sutures are typically removed after 1 week or dissolve on their own. Sun protection is critical for scar healing.
