Facelift

Facelift - Veido pakėlimas

Over the years, the face changes: its subcutaneous adipose tissue reduces, the skin is changing, its excess is forming, tissues decline. The facial form from “V” changes into the rectangular, the clear line of the underjaw disappears, the skin is pendulous, the edges of the subcutaneous muscle are visible. In correcting these age-related changes, the facial plastic surgery is performed – the facelift (rhytidectomy). Although it is one of the most complex aesthetic surgeries, at the same time it is one of the most effective surgeries. During the so-called “facelift“, the formed excess skin is removed, the sagging tissues are lifted, the subcutaneous fat layer is formed.

Surgery

Facelift is performed under general anesthesia, although sometimes local anesthesia with sedation is used. The surgery takes 3 – 5 hours. The incisions are made around the ears, in the hairy head part, so that would be less noticeable, sometimes, when it is necessary to fix the chin area (to sew hanging muscles, remove excess fat), additional incisions are made in the lower part of the chin, in the natural wrinkle. During the surgery, the patches of skin and subcutaneous tissue are distributed. Fascia is lifted, the superficial muscle of the lower part of the chin is lifted, fats are sucked, excess skin and subcutaneous tissues are removed.
