The facelift is an operative method for corrections to the skin of the chin, cheek and neck regions. The goal is the removal of the "sagging cheeks" and skin folds. An ideal age for the permanent removal of the disturbing skin section is between 45 and 55, in order to retain a fresh and natural facial contour.
The use of tumescence technique ensures a minimum of bleeding, as well as improving tissue preparation, so that complications are rare. The gentle handling of tissue also shortens the regeneration time.
Besides the neck and cheek lift (SMAS lift), there is also a forehead lift for the correction of folds in the forehead, and lifting the eyebrows and eyelids.
The forehead / eyebrow lift can be performed in endoscopic or open technique, concealed in the hair region. Any possible scar formation is therefore not visible.
