What is Facelift?
A facelift is a surgical operation that helps to tighten and lift facial skin, resulting in tighter and lifted facial skin, hence a youthful appearance. Sometimes referred to as a mini face lift, a face lift reduces minor sagging around the cheeks, jawline and neck and is less extensive than a full face lift, which means the forehead and area around your eyes will not experience much improvement. Downtime is shorter than the downtime for a full face lift.
What is Full Facelift?
The Full Face Lift targets your face and neck. It addresses deep creases below your lower eyelid and between the nose and corners of your mouth. The Full Face Lift is a major surgical operation that dramatically improves sagging anywhere on the face by dealing with displaced fat, lost muscle tone, jowls, and the “turkey neck" appearance.
What is Mid Facelift?
Sometimes referred to as a cheek lift, the midface lift targets your upper cheek and lower eyelid area. The result is restored fullness to the eyes and cheeks, enhanced cheekbones and lifted corners of your mouth. It also helps to soften smile lines.
What is Midface and Neck Lift?
A Neck Lift aims to remove excess skin and fat around your jaw area to help create a more defined neck. The Midface Lift targets your upper cheek and lower eyelid area. The result is restored fullness to the eyes, cheeks and a younger looking neck.

FAQ
Q1: What is the best age to have a face lift?
A1: What matters is appearance and not age. It is a question of how much a person is bothered by something that can be fixed with a facelift. The oldest age is limited only by the health of a patient.
Q2: How much younger will a face lift make me look?
A2: A study showed a portfolio of photographs of a group of patients before a facelift and another portfolio of photographs to groups of observers, in which both groups of patients have the same age. On average, the facelift patients were judged to be 9 years younger.
Q3: Can laser treatments give me face lift results?
A3: Although lasers can remove broken capillaries and brown spots as well as flatten wrinkles, they do not tighten skin as much as a facelift does. In addition, lasers do not actually lift sagging tissue on the inside and cannot tighten necks.
Q4: Will a face lift remove my wrinkles?
A4: A face lift does not remove wrinkles, as it is more about lifting skin. Fortunately, your wrinkles will look better due to the tightening of your skin.
Q5: Are there non-surgical ways to tighten or lift skin?
A5: Ultherapy, Thermage and the Silhouette Soft Face Lifting are all good alternatives, but are not permanent like a face lift.
