The SMAS Facelift and the difference that it makes to age defiance

LONDON - Dec. 23, 2014 - PRLog -- Sub-Muscular Aponeurotic System, SMAS – is a layer of muscles that covers and attaches to the deeper tissues and structures of the neck and face including the entire cheek area. Unique innovations of recent cosmetic surgery have lead to the possibility of SMAS facelift surgery which is an efficient and minimal invasive procedure producing best results with almost no risk and little down time.

The skin of the cheek and front neck is comprised of three interconnected layers that are superficial epidermal layer, subcutaneous fat layer, a gliding membrane composed of fibro elastic connective tissue and muscle. The SMAS has multiple extensions that connect through the subcutaneous fat to the superficial epidermal layer of the skin and these attachments cause the three layers to move together as a unit.

The SMAS facelift surgery uplifts this layer which in turn elevates the soft tissues and structures of the face.  It can be tightened by removing the redundant portion and then reattached in the uplifted position. Usually the procedure takes nearly 3 hours to complete.

The SMAS Facelift is ideal to treat mild to moderate sagginess affecting the mid and lower half of the face with relatively good skin elasticity excites. Candidates with good physical and psychological health with a realistic expectation are eligible for the surgery.

Men and women aged between 40 and 70 are the majority of the patients. It is a purely safe procedure, often combined with the eyelid surgery or fat transfer. In summary SMAS procedure has been shown over an extended experience to provide an improved, more natural –appearing result that is long lasting.

However, certain things are worth a thought, such as with slightly overweight people who wish to have the surgery. If the patient is aiming for a weight loss program, it is wiser to have the targeted weight reduction and then have the surgery, since the reverse might turn up to deter the results into a disproportionate loss of volume and further sagging, more or less.

It is important to discuss with your plastic surgeon about the details of your health. You may not be anywhere near to poor health condition, but smoking, weight fluctuation, consuming certain medication or drugs and age area all risk increasing factors associated with having this particular Vaser (http://www.vaserliposuctions.co.uk/) surgery. People who smoke have a higher risk of complication, this is why patient s is recommended to refrain smoking at least three weeks prior to the operation. SO keeping a good communication of these factors would mean your invested SMAS Facelift cost to be well worth it. SMAS facelift cost in London starts from £1,500 and goes up to £4,000 depending on the cosmetic needs and state of the face.
