Facelift
Southern California Plastic Surgery Group
A facelift can turn back the clock, restoring your youthful appearance. Age, stress, gravity, and the sun can all take a heavy toll on your face. Over time deep creases, sagging skin, and fat deposits can appear, making you look older than you feel. A facelift can correct these problems.
A younger, fresher appearance can enhance your enjoyment of life and restore self-confidence. A facelift can’t stop the aging process, but with proper skin care, a healthy diet, and by avoiding exposure to the sun, your new look will last for many years.
During a facelift excess skin and fat are removed and the muscles are tightened in the lower two thirds of your face and your neck. Your face and neck will be firmer, smoother and younger looking. Other procedures, such as eyelid surgery or a forehead lift can be performed at the same time for a more dramatic effect.
We have compiled a general list of Commonly Asked Questions to get you started. Please ask Dr. Hicks if you have more questions about the procedure.
Most facelift patients are in their 50’s or 60’s, but a facelift can also benefit younger patients after massive weight loss. The ideal candidate for the procedure is in good overall health and has realistic expectations.
