Rhytidectomy, also known as a facelift, is a cosmetic surgical procedure performed to alleviate the signs of aging. This procedure rejuvenates the face and addresses several age-related issues, such as skin sagging, fine lines, falling facial fat, cheeks and jaw skin drooping, double chin, and more.
Facelift surgeries are personalized to each individual. They are restorative surgeries to reduce the signs of aging but cannot stop aging, correct skin tone irregularities, or reverse sun damage. Depending on the targeted area, several facelifting surgeries include traditional facelifts, SMAS rhytidectomy, deep plane facelifts, mid-facelifts, mini-facelifts, and skin facelifts. The results depend highly on surgical procedures and post-surgery management
