What is a Facelift?

A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgery designed to reduce visible signs of aging by tightening facial skin and underlying tissues. It helps restore youthful contours by addressing sagging skin, deep wrinkles, and loss of facial volume.

Types of Facelift Surgery

Facelift procedures vary based on the patient’s needs and the extent of correction required.

✔ Traditional Facelift (Full Facelift) – Targets the lower face, jowls, and neck for a comprehensive rejuvenation.

✔ Mini Facelift – A less invasive option focusing on mild to moderate skin laxity.

✔ Mid-Facelift – Lifts the cheeks and corrects sagging in the middle part of the face.

✔ SMAS Facelift – Tightens both the skin and underlying muscles for long-lasting results.

✔ Deep Plane Facelift – A more advanced technique for significant rejuvenation by repositioning deep facial tissues.

✔ Thread Lift (Non-Surgical Facelift) – Uses dissolvable sutures to lift and tighten the skin with minimal downtime.

Procedure Description

✔ Consultation & Planning

• Dr. Harsh Amin evaluates facial structure and discusses aesthetic goals.

• Personalized facelift approach is planned based on skin laxity and aging severity.

✔ Anesthesia

• The procedure is performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the type of facelift.

✔ Incisions & Tissue Repositioning

• Incisions are made along the hairline, around the ears, or under the chin (for neck lift inclusion).

• The skin is lifted, underlying muscles (SMAS) are tightened, and excess skin is removed.
 

✔ Closure & Recovery

• The incisions are carefully closed with sutures to ensure minimal scarring.

• A compression bandage is applied to support healing.

2. How long does the procedure take?

✔ A traditional facelift takes 3-6 hours, while a mini facelift may take 1.5-3 hours.

3. Will I have visible scars after a facelift?

4. How long do facelift results last?

✔ Facelift results typically last 10-15 years, depending on lifestyle and skincare routine.

5. Is a facelift painful?

✔ No! The procedure is performed under anesthesia.

✔ Mild discomfort and tightness may occur post-surgery, but pain medications help manage it.

6. What is the difference between a facelift and a mini facelift?

✔ Traditional facelift – Addresses significant sagging in the lower face and neck.

✔ Mini facelift – Focuses on mild to moderate skin laxity with smaller incisions.

7. Can a facelift be combined with other procedures?

✔ Yes! Common combinations include:

• Eyelid surgery (Blepharoplasty) – For rejuvenated eyes.

• Fat grafting – For volume restoration.

• Botox & Fillers – For wrinkle reduction.

✔ Most patients resume light activities within 10-14 days, but full recovery takes 4-6 weeks.

9. What are the risks associated with facelift surgery?

✔ Swelling, bruising, temporary numbness, and minor asymmetry.
