- What Is Rhytidectomy Or Face Lift?

Rhytidectomy, widely known as facelift, is designed to make you look younger by taking away those wrinkles and sagging skin, that causes you to look older. Face lifting will give you a more youthful look, by tightening the muscles in your neck and face and at the same time, the excess skin will be taken off.

As we get older, it is undeniable that our appearance changes, from a youthful skin to a wrinkled and saggy one, this is the truth and everybody gets to face it, but with face lifting - worry no more. Recover your youthful look and have the chance to look younger while aging. Amazing, isn't it?

- What Is The Facelift Process?

If you are emotionally and of course financially ready to enjoy the benefits of looking young, it is now the best time to head to your Cosmetic surgeon for a face lift. The surgery does not take place immediately; your doctor needs to examine and evaluate your overall health.

After examining your health, it is just right to expect that your doctor will discuss with you, how you will look after the surgery and of course to keep you aware, we will also discuss what to expect from the surgery. To keep everything documented and to determine the changes made by the face lift surgery, expect that we will take a picture of you before and after the surgery, you don't have to worry, everything will be kept confidential.

The process of a facelift is performed together with chin augmentation, liposuction, forehead lift, and eyelid surgery, this is to have an overall youthful looking face. Expect that the process may have to be repeated five to seven years later, as gravity continues its effects even after the first facelift surgery. A facelift surgery is generally performed in inpatient surgical centers. For long procedures concerning facelift surgeries, General anesthesia can be used to help you relax and to get a better result, however, for short procedures of mini face lifting, General anesthesia may not be required.

During the process, your cosmetic surgeon Dr. Debraj Shome will make an incision starting at the inside hairline at the temple, then in front of your ear, around the earlobe and behind the ear, which will eventually end at your scalp area –you will feel no pain during the procedure, because of the anesthesia. Excess skin will then be removed; connective tissues and sagging muscles will be tightened, and at times fatty deposits are also taken off from beneath the neck and chin. The Superficial Musculo-Aponeurotic System (SMAS) of the face is also tightened. The incisions are closed with small sutures.

Most face lift procedures take between three - four hours to complete.

- Recovery After Surgery.

A large dressing will be wrapped around your head, surgical drains that are attached to bulbs, maybe hanging on your neck, but don't worry after approximately 24 hours, these will be removed. The stitches around your neck will be removed in a few days, but the sutures in your scalp will be removed in 7 to 10 days..

Expect that there will be scars – but in today's world, scars should not bother you - Most scars can be removed with fractional Co2 laser treatment / skin resurfacing and other scar remodeling techniques.

There will be discoloration and swelling of the face due to the surgery, it will eventually decrease in just two weeks. Make sure to avoid being exposed to the sun after the surgery.

After the surgery, expect that your skin around the ear and face may be numb; as the healing begins you may notice some discolorations, which are just temporary, which will eventually disappear after a few months.

You will not notice the final results for the next few months, since the healing process is gradual.

- FAQs (Frequently Ask Question)

Age is not the most important factor in determining if you are eligible of undergoing a facelift surgery. Some opt to have the surgery during their 20’s or 30’s to enhance their beauty and to correct any hereditary conditions. But most of the patients are around the age of 40–70 years, wishing to look younger. The most important factor in having a facelift surgery is the result that you are after .

- What Are The Types Of Face Lift Surgery?

The different types of face lifting surgery are as follows:

- Cutaneous, or Skin Only, Facelift

A cutaneous facelift addresses the lower face and neck. Due to the skin's ability to stretch out over time, this facelift is considered to be less durable than facelift employing muscle tightening.

- SMAS Facelift

The SMAS facelift is another term for the traditional facelift. "SMAS" refers to the superficial musculo-aponeurotic system.

- Deep Plane Facelift

The deep-plane facelift is modification of the traditional facelift. During this type of facelift, the surgeon will dissect to a deeper plane of the patient's face before lifting and repositioning the muscle. While this procedure offers certain advantages to a traditional facelift including a more natural result and improved rejuvenation of droopy skin, this technique also has a higher risk of facial nerve injury and many surgeons dispute that it offers a significant advantage to the traditional facelift.

- Neck lift Or Platysmaplasty

A neck lift targets a drooping or sagging neck area. Incisions are typically shorter than those made during a traditional facelift and will normally be placed only at the earlobe and behind the ear. A platysmaplasty is commonly needed on neck lift patients to remove any pronounced neck cords.

- Mid face Lift

The mid face lift soft tissues in the cheekbone area in order to alleviate the appearance of nasolabial folds and hanging skin in the middle of the face (laugh lines). The mid face lift is performed through a trans-conjunctival incision (inside of eye) and therefore does not leave any visible scar on the skin of the face.

- Mini Facelift

There are many types of mini facelift techniques. In general, mini face lifts will use smaller incisions than traditional face lifts, and healing times can be proportionately shorter. Because surgeons cannot dissect the skin and tissue as extensively as with a traditional facelift, this procedure is a poorer choice for patients with extensive skin looseness or skin wrinkling. The best candidates for mini face lifts are usually younger patients with good skin elasticity.

- Lifestyle Lift®

The Lifestyle Lift® is a branded procedure offered in various Lifestyle Lift centers throughout America. It is a type of mini facelift.

- Thread Lift, Feather Lift

A thread lift uses sutures beneath the skin to pull it up. There are a variety of sutures on the market today used for this purpose, such as Contour, APTOS, and Silhouette etc. These sutures differ in how they hook into the facial tissues, but the technique used is generally the same. Results are generally subtle at best, with questionable durability.
