As we get older, we start to notice things about ourselves that make us look older than we feel. Our skin begins to loosen and sag, our facial muscles are not nearly as tight as they used to be, and we may find that we have more wrinkles and lines. But there is a way to turn back the hands of time. What better way to enhance your face, and look as youthful as you see yourself, than with a facelift!
Facelifts are by far one of the best ways to restore a fresher appearance. Over time, facelifts have become more advanced and the process continues to improve. A facelift is an extensive procedure, as surgeons now have the ability to give a more natural-looking result than ever before by addressing muscles and facial contour.
Improving facial contour is a big benefit. During your first examination, the surgeon will examine your facial structure and determine if changes should be made to enhance your jaw line, or if some minor liposuction can be done to reduce a sagging neck or other unattractive feature that has snuck up on you with the passage of time.
Facial muscles are typically reconfigured as well, to help reduce the risk of the dreaded “wind-tunnel” look that used to be common after a facelift. Working on the sub-muscular area underneath the skin, such as around the cheek bones, the surgeon can impart a more youthful appearance to your face, and increase the length of time in which the facelift will last.
Most importantly, facelifts help correct drooping skin on your face that has loosened with age. By pulling the facial skin upwards towards the scalp, the plastic surgeon tightens the face and lessens the appearance of wrinkles from sagging skin.
