Facelift
A facelift, also known as a rhytidectomy, is considered one of the most effective facial rejuvenation procedures available. It is designed to reduce wrinkles and other signs of aging from the face, neck, and jawline. A facelift can provide dramatic results that last for years.
Facial Aging
The natural aging process can cause wrinkles, creases, and sagging skin to appear on the face. These changes are caused by a decrease in collagen production and sun damage (especially in sunny Colorado!). A facelift is a surgery that can help reduce these signs of aging by lifting and tightening loose skin, removing excess fat from problem areas, and repositioning underlying tissues.
By restoring the structural integrity of the face, facelift procedures can provide a more youthful appearance.
Who is a candidate for a facelift?
Candidacy for facelift surgery depends on factors such as health, age, skin quality, and desired results. Generally speaking, facelift surgery is best suited to those in their 40s or 50s or 60s who have sagging jowls, deep wrinkles around the nasolabial folds and mouth, or a drooping neckline.
When considering facelift surgery, it is important to have realistic expectations. Facelifts are designed to address the visible signs of aging in the face and neck but cannot stop or reverse the natural aging process. The best facelift candidates are those who are in overall good health and are looking to improve upon their appearance by reducing wrinkles or sagging skin.
How much does a Facelift cost?
The cost of facelift surgery can vary greatly depending on the patient's individual needs and desired results. At our practice in Colorado, we offer affordable facelift packages for those who are looking to reduce wrinkles and sagging skin.
Revision Facelift
Secondary facelifts, also known as revision facelifts, are designed for patients who have had facelift surgery in the past. These procedures may be necessary to address areas of dissatisfaction or if sagging has recurred over time. Secondary facelifts are typically more complicated than a primary facelift, as they require additional corrective work to achieve results.
Why choose a board certified plastic surgeon?
Regardless of whether you’re considering your first facelift or a revision facelift, it’s important to choose a qualified surgeon who has experience performing facelifts on patients of similar age and body type. Doing so can help ensure the best possible results with minimal recovery time and risks.
