What is Face Lift?

As we age, skin and tissues would lose their elasticity naturally and this often leads to sagging and wrinkles on the skin. Face Lift, also known as Rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgery procedure that aims to give a more youthful facial appearance. It can reshape the lower two-thirds of the face by removing excess facial skin and tightening the tissues. Results are immediate and long-lasting, so it is suitable for those with serious and severe sagging especially at the jawline area.

A layer of tissue called the musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) is important in the tissue suspension of the face. When SMAS is cut, it allows the surgeon to lift more skin, giving a tight and smooth skin texture. Excess skin will be removed so patients can have smoother and more refined skin, especially at the jawline area.

At our affiliated hospital, in the procedure, the surgeon will make an incision in front of the ear and lift the skin off the facial muscles and fat. There are two types of face lift available: full face lift and lower face lift.

Types of Face Lift Available

Full Face Lift
· The procedure helps by getting rid of wrinkles in areas such as jaw, neck, portions of eyebrows, cheeks, eyes, marionette lines, and deep wrinkle lines along the face.

Lower Face Lift
· A facial rejuvenation procedure that covers jawline, neck, and parts of the cheekbone area; the procedure is suitable for the ones between 45 to 60 years old or the ones who have excess weight loss, with the upper part of the face unaffected, works by tightening the skin and removing the excess dead skin areas.

How It Works

Face Lift works by making a surgical incision at the area of the ear and up into the hairline to remove excess skin that causes the loose and saggy appearance on the face and tighten up by pulling in upwards direction to restore the firm and contoured look. The sutures will be used to stitch the incision and will be removed 7 days after the surgery.

Face Lift Procedure

1. Consultation and medical examination will be done with the doctor to determine suitability and methods.
2. Anesthesia will be administered before the procedure.
3. The surgeon will make an incision in front of the ear and may extend up to the hairline.
4. SMAS will be cut so that skin can be pulled in upwards, posterior direction to be tightened.
5. Incisions will be closed with sutures.
