Face Lift

A face lift, or rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure designed to reduce the visible signs of aging in the face and neck. It aims to improve facial contours, smooth out wrinkles, and create a more youthful appearance. This procedure can significantly enhance one’s self-confidence and overall satisfaction with their appearance.

What Is a Face Lift?

A face lift is a cosmetic surgery that addresses sagging skin, deep creases, and loss of volume in the face. It involves the removal of excess skin, tightening of underlying tissues, and redraping the skin for a more youthful look.
