Feb 12, 2008 – Face Lift Surgery By Indicure
Face lift surgery, also known as Rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that is used to reshape or contour the lower two-thirds of the face. Face lift reduces the visible signs of aging produced by gravity and loss of skin elasticity, from face and neck and provides tightening of the skin and muscles to improve cheek, jowl, and neck contour. Face Lift can either be done alone or in conjunction with Blepheroplasty (Eyelid Surgery), Rhinoplasty (Nose Reshaping) or a Forehead Lift.
Face Lift is usually performed under local anesthesia with oral sedation to help you relax during the procedure. It can also be performed under general anesthesia. The procedure of Face Lift may take anywhere from 3 - 5 hours
An incision is made along the hairline just above the ear which extends down along the front edge of the ear, around the earlobe, and then up and behind the ear extending back into the hairline. The intent for making this incision is to hide it in the hair and make it as inconspicuous as possible. The same kind of incision is repeated on the other side of the face. Using various kinds of highly sophisticated instruments that are used for the Face Lift procedure, the surgeon separates the skin of the face from its underlying tissue, moving down to the cheek and into the neck area and below the chin. Fat deposits over the cheeks and in the neck may either be removed surgically or with Liposuction at this time.
The surgeon will then tighten bands of small facial muscles and tissue that extend up from the shoulder, below the chin, and up and behind the neck to give the face and neck the 'lift'. The excess skin from the edges of the original incision is trimmed, pulls the skin back and re-drapes it on the face, staples or sutures it into place.
If you have any of the following, you require a Face Lift surgery:
• Loose skin, wrinkles, or excess fatty tissue in the neck
• Deep line that runs from the corner of the nose to the corner of the mouth
• Deep wrinkles in the cheeks, and sagging skin near the cheekbones
• Do not have a well defined jaw line
