Turn Back Time With Facelift Surgery

Facelifts lead to a dramatic improvement in skin tone, effectively turning back the clock on skin folds and wrinkles. A facelift, also known as a rhytidectomy, can be performed with a number of different techniques, depending on the condition of the skin and the expectations of the patient. The primary focus of any facelift, however, is the mobilization and re-positioning of the facial skin in order to create a smoother, firmer appearance. A traditional approach to the facelift, now regarded as a “full facelift,” involves the entire face with the surgical scar tucked neatly along the hairline. In contrast, a mini-facelift involves only the lower portion of the face.

The Mini-facelift: When Less is Best

Also referred to as a weekend facelift, the mini facelift is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure that targets the facial areas in which aging is most apparent: the neck, cheeks, and jaw. Many patients appreciate that a mini facelift requires minimal down-time but still provides most of the anti-aging benefits of a full facelift. As an added benefit, a mini facelift can be readily combined with other targeted anti-aging procedures such as an eye lift, chin augmentation and injectable treatments like Botox.

Skin treatments still a must-do for best facial anti-aging

So much more than mud masks and massage, a full range medical spa like you find at Abramson Facial Plastic Surgery, can truly make the difference in how your skin ages. It can also enhance any surgical procedure you have for best overall results.

For some patients, a medical-grade corrective facial may be just what the doctor ordered to clear up the appearance of dry or sensitive skin that can add years to the facial appearance. Other patients appreciate the facial firming and toning that can be achieved with topical collagen and antioxidant treatments. Chemical peels and dermabrasion can also help to create a more youthful appearance by penetrating even deeper into the skin to stimulate the body’s own repair mechanisms.
