Restore Youthful Contours, Reduce Wrinkles, and Reclaim Your Confidence
A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that lifts and tightens facial skin, underlying muscles, and fat pads to reduce visible signs of aging. It helps restore youthful contours by addressing:
- Sagging and lax skin folds
- Wrinkles and deep creases (e.g., smile lines)
- Jowls and fat deposits around the jawline
- Loose or drooping skin on the neck (double chin, “turkey neck”)
At Medical Park, facelifts may be performed alone or combined with other procedures (such as eyelid surgery or neck lift) for comprehensive rejuvenation.
🔍 Types of Facelift Procedures at Medical Park
Each patient has unique features and aging patterns. That’s why Medical Park offers different facelift techniques tailored to your needs:
🔹 Conventional Facelift
This classic approach provides the most dramatic rejuvenation, especially for patients with significant sagging skin and deeper wrinkles. The surgeon makes incisions around the hairline and ears, tightening underlying tissues and removing excess skin for a smoother, more youthful contour.
🔹 SMAS Facelift (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System)
This advanced technique goes beyond skin tightening and addresses the deeper muscular layer (SMAS). By lifting and repositioning the SMAS, surgeons achieve longer-lasting and more natural-looking results compared to skin-only techniques. It is considered the gold standard for patients with moderate to severe facial sagging.
🔹 Deep Plane Facelift
This technique goes deeper than the SMAS lift, repositioning the skin, fat, and muscles together in one layer. It is especially effective for patients with more advanced signs of aging, providing a very natural outcome by avoiding the “pulled” look and restoring volume to hollow areas.
🔹 Mid-Face Lift
Focused on the central region of the face, this technique lifts sagging cheeks, reduces deep nasolabial folds, and restores volume to the mid-face. It is particularly effective for patients who want to rejuvenate the cheek area without a full facelift. The incisions are usually made within the hairline or inside the mouth, making scars virtually invisible.
🔹 Mini Facelift
The mini facelift is less invasive and best suited for patients with early signs of aging. Smaller incisions are made around the ears, targeting mild sagging in the lower face and jawline. Recovery is faster compared to a full facelift, and the results are subtle but effective, offering a refreshed look without a drastic change.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Not everyone needs the same type of facelift. You may be considered a good candidate if you meet the following criteria:
- Sagging skin along the cheeks, jawline, or neck
- Deep folds around the nose and mouth
- Loose skin or excess fat under the chin
- Non-smokers (or willing to quit before and after surgery)
- Free from serious medical conditions that could interfere with healing
- No uncontrolled diabetes, bleeding disorders, or severe heart issues
