You
don’t have to be a Hollywood actress to recognize the stunning
beauty and grace that younger looking skin can give. Unfortunately,
the busy lifestyle of today, coupled with the air pollution in many
big cities could really take a huge toll on your skin’s health and
lead to visible signs of aging, such as wrinkles and age spots. Thus,
it’s no wonder so many women opt to get facelift surgery to look
young again.
What
it is
Essentially,
facelift surgery, or rhytidectomy is a surgical procedure that
involves the removal of excess facial skin, and redraping it on the
patient’s face and neck. This is only the general idea of the
treatment though, as there are many surgical procedures that might
cause some of its elements to vary. Facelifts are often combined with
other cosmetic surgery procedures like eyelid surgery for better
results.
What
it does
A
facelift procedure mainly removes visible signs of aging, which can
include deep creases below the eyelids, sagging in the midface, loss
of muscle tone, fallen or misplaced fat in the face, or loose skin
and excess fatty deposits under the chin and jaw. Know though, that
while this procedure can make you look younger, it is in no way meant
to change your fundamental appearance, nor is it aimed at halting the
aging process.
