During surgery full facelift, medications are administered to ensure your comfort. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia, though your surgeon will recommend the most appropriate option for you.
A traditional SMAS (Superficial Musculo-Aponeurotic System) facelift involves precise incisions, usually placed around the ear and extending into the lower scalp. During the procedure:
Neck lift will be performed simultaneously to address sagging jowls, loose neck skin, or excess fat under the chin. The neck lift incision typically begins in front of the earlobe, wraps behind the ear, and ends in the lower scalp. Once healed, all incision lines are well concealed within the hairline and natural facial contours.
Visible improvements gradually appear as swelling and bruising subside. The final result not only restores a youthful and rested appearance but also enhances your confidence and overall self-esteem.
