While a facelift may be performed using different variations or techniques, all plastic surgeons utilize the same basic principles for a rhytidectomy.
In this video, a licensed plastic surgeon provides a general overview on how facelift surgery is performed. Your cosmetic surgeon will typically start by making a small incision at the root of the ear that extends down to the bottom and along the base of the hairline. The incision size will vary based on your desired results, but they are usually well-hidden along natural creases and curves for minimal scarring. Learn more about the procedural steps in this full clip:

It’s only natural for skin to lose its elasticity with age. Fortunately, with so many new advances in medical technology, you no longer have to live with fine lines and wrinkles. If you’re struggling to conceal the signs of aging, consider how you can improve your appearance with a facelift.
- What is a Facelift? A facelift, also known as a rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgery procedure designed to improve the visible signs of aging in the face and neck by lifting up the skin, tissues, and underlyingfacial muscles for a smoother appearance.
- Ideal Candidates: Ideal candidates for a facelift are typically between the ages of 40 and 70 years old and in good general health with realistic expectations regarding the results. Certain traits may also affect an individual’s candidacy for a facelift, including:
- Skin Elasticity: Proper levels of skin elasticity and collagen enable skin to retain flexibility and decrease surgical healing time.
- Bone Structure: While patients with weak facial features may benefit from facial implants, ideal facelift patients should generally have a well-defined underlying bone structure to provide support for newly draped skin.
- Benefits of a Facelift: Many men and women turn to facelifts to revitalize their appearance and boost their overall self-confidence. Facelifts offer a variety of benefits, including reducing or eliminating the appearance of:
- Sagging in the mid-face.
- Deep creases beneath the lower lids.
- Nasal labial creases.
- Loss of muscle tone in the lower part of the face, also known as “jowls.”
- Displaced facial fat.
- Excess fatty deposits beneath the chin and along the jaw line.
By reducing the natural appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, aging gracefully has never been easier.
