Face lift surgery, medically known as rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to reduce visible signs of aging in the face and sometimes the neck. It works by tightening loose skin, repositioning underlying facial tissues, and removing excess skin to create a smoother, firmer, and more youthful appearance. A face lift primarily addresses sagging cheeks, deep wrinkles around the nose and mouth, loose jawline (jowls), and overall facial skin laxity. The procedure does not change your natural features but restores a refreshed and rejuvenated version of your appearance. It is typically performed under anesthesia, with incisions carefully placed around the hairline and ears to minimize visible scarring, and provides long-lasting, natural-looking results when done by an experienced plastic surgeon.
