Facelift is a surgical procedure performed on face that helps to tighten and lift facial skin, resulting in the permanent removal of wrinkles and a youthful appearance. The effect of the treatment could last longer than 5 to 10 years with proper care. As individuals age, their skin and structural tissues of the face and neck gradually lose tone. At the same time, volume in the underlying bone and fat of the face disappears. Face lifting is able to improve the visible signs of aging in the face as well as neck.

Facelifts offered by our affiliated clinic include a facelift with neck tightening and without neck tightening.

1. Anaesthesia will be administered.
2. Incision will be made in desired areas.
3. Underlying tissue will be re-positioned and deep layers (including muscles) of the face are lifted. Excess skin will be removed.
4. Incisions will be closed using sutures or skin adhesives.
