Why more and more people are opting for a facelift ?
A face-lift is a cosmetic surgical operation used to make the face appear younger. Sagging skin can be reduced using this technique. It can also assist in smooth skin wrinkles on the cheekbones and jawline. A facelift is also known as a rhytidectomy. A flap of skin on each side of the face is pulled back during a face-lift. The tissues beneath the skin are changed, and extra skin is removed. This gives the face a younger appearance. A neck lift is frequently performed in conjunction with a facelift. It lowers neck fat and sagging skin.
Why you should opt for a facelift?
With aging, the appearance and contour of the face alter. The skin loosens and does not snap back as easily. Some parts of the face see a decrease in fat deposits while others see an increase. These age-related changes can be addressed with a facelift:
- The appearance of sagging cheeks
- Skin excess at the lower jawline
- From the sides of the nose to the corner of the mouth, there are deep skin folds.
- Sagging skin and extra fat in the neck (if a neck lift is included in the treatment)
How facelift procedure is performed at the Dezire clinic?
- The process typically begins with a consultation with our qualified plastic surgeon. During this consultation, the surgeon will assess your facial structure, and skin condition, and discuss your goals and expectations for the procedure. They will also explain the potential limitations involved in the procedure.
- On the day of the surgery, you will be administered anesthesia to ensure your comfort during the procedure. The options include general anesthesia, where you'll be unconscious, or local anesthesia with sedation, where you'll be relaxed but awake.
- The surgeon will create incisions strategically placed in inconspicuous locations, usually within the hairline or along natural creases of the face. The specific incision pattern may vary depending on the extent of the facelift and the areas being targeted, such as the lower face, jawline, or neck.
- The surgeon will then lift and reposition the underlying tissues, such as the muscles and fat, to restore a more youthful contour to the face. This step helps address sagging or displaced facial structures.
- Excess skin is trimmed away, and the remaining skin is redraped over the repositioned tissues. This helps eliminate wrinkles, folds, and laxity.
- The surgeon will close the incisions using sutures or other techniques. In some cases, they may also use skin adhesives or clips to secure the skin. These closures are designed to be discreet and minimize visible scarring.
- After the procedure, you will be closely monitored in a recovery area. Our surgeon will apply dressings to protect the incision sites, and you may be prescribed pain medication or antibiotics. It's common to experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort for a few days following the surgery.
- It's important to note that the above steps provide a general outline of the facelift procedure, and the specifics can vary depending on factors such as the individual patient's needs and the surgeon's preferred techniques. If you're considering a facelift, it's recommended to consult with our qualified plastic surgeon who can assess your unique situation and guide you through the process.
What precautions are necessary after undergoing a facelift procedure?
After undergoing a facelift procedure, it is crucial to follow post-operative precautions given by our surgeon to ensure proper healing and minimize complications. Here are some important precautions to consider:
- Follow our surgeon's instructions: our surgeon will provide you with detailed post-operative instructions. It is essential to carefully follow these instructions regarding wound care, medications, activity restrictions, and follow-up appointments. These instructions are tailored to your specific situation and promote optimal healing.
- Keep the incision sites clean and dry: Proper wound care is vital to prevent infection. Follow our surgeon's instructions on how to clean the incision sites, what products to use (such as gentle cleansers), and how to apply any recommended ointments or dressings. Avoid exposing the incisions to excessive moisture, such as swimming or soaking in water, until our surgeon gives you the green light.
- Take prescribed medications as directed: our surgeon may prescribe medications to manage pain, reduce swelling, or prevent infection. Take these medications exactly as instructed, following the recommended dosage and frequency. If you have any concerns or experience unexpected side effects, contact the surgeon for guidance.
- Avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting: Engaging in strenuous activities, such as heavy lifting, vigorous exercise, or intense physical exertion, can strain the incision sites and potentially compromise the healing process. Our surgeon will provide specific guidelines on when you can gradually resume normal activities. Follow these instructions and gradually increase your activity level as advised.
- Protect your incisions from sun exposure: UV radiation can cause scars to darken and become more prominent. Protect your incisions from direct sun exposure by wearing a wide-brimmed hat and using sunscreen with a high SPF. It is generally recommended to avoid excessive sun exposure for several months following the procedure.
- Eat a healthy diet and stay hydrated: Proper nutrition plays a crucial role in healing. Follow a balanced diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and protein to support the recovery process. Stay adequately hydrated by drinking plenty of water.
- Attend follow-up appointments: our surgeon will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and assess the healing process. Attend these appointments as recommended and communicate any concerns or questions you may have.
- Be patient with the healing process: It's important to remember that healing takes time. Swelling, bruising, and tightness are common after a facelift and will gradually subside over several weeks. Avoid making any judgments about the final results until you have fully healed, which can take several months.

Q. What are the different techniques used?
Each surgeon uses his own technique; the one he is most comfortable with. However, there are basic principles and philosophies which are followed. Basically, the surgeon needs to decide what the “problem areas” are and how he will improve them. Extra skin will be removed and the remaining skin will be tightened. What varies is that, if anything is done to the deeper structures. The main deep structure which the surgeon will address is called the SMAS (SubMuscular Aponeurotic System) This is a fascial layer under the skin, most surgeons will tighten the SMAS with the belief that this gives a better and longer lasting result. Even though more structures are being pulled, the patient is actually left with a less “pulled look” (which nobody wants).
Q. How long does the surgery take?
It will take anywhere from 2 to 3 hours to finish the facelift surgery. The time depends upon how much is done and which type of procedure is done.
Q. What happens after surgery?
You will go to the recovery room for 1 to 2 hours. Your vital signs will be monitored. Once you are stable you can go home. You will want to stay relaxed and primarily in bed for the first few days. You will need to keep your head elevated and relatively still. You do not want to use any pillows directly behind your head for a few days (that flex your head down onto your chest). Your dressing and drains will be removed after 1 or 2 days. Your activity can slowly increase each day but it will take up to 2 weeks before you start to feel like your old self again. You should avoid any strenuous activity for 4 weeks.
Q. How much bruising, swelling, and pain is there?
The bruising is usually in the neck region. The bruising usually lasts for 2 weeks but becomes less noticeable each day after surgery. The swelling in the face will subside around 3 weeks. In some cases it may last upto 3 months. The majority of the swelling, however, will be gone by 3 to 4 weeks. There may be some pain after surgery, but this is usually controlled with painkillers.
Q. When can I get back to work?
You should plan on being off work for at least 1 week. If your work is strenuous, you will need more time off.
Q. Will I have to change any bandages?
Your dressing will be changed by our staff during the first week after surgery. By second week no bandages are required by most patients.
Q. How long should the results last?
This depends on what is done, on the patient’s skin and tissue quality, age, habits (sun exposure and smoking) and overall health. When the deeper structures are tightened, the results are longer lasting.
