Who Is Candidate?
There are some specific requirements to be an ideal candidate for facelift treatment. The person with good medical health is usually preferred most. Going for the procedure you must:
- Be a non-smoker
- Have realistic expectations
- Have loosened facial muscles and tissues
- Have normal laboratory tests report prior to surgery
- Have an unambiguous bone structure for baking facial changes
- Have more elastic skin for stretching underlying tissues during the facelift
Technique We Use:
A wide variety of surgical and non-surgical techniques are available before going for the treatment. If you are interested in having a facelift, choose the best one for you according to the skills of a surgeon and your own skin texture. The most commonly used methods are listed below:
Surgical Techniques:
Full facelift:
It is the traditional technique used for improving facial appearance by making incisions in the skin. For tightening of muscles in face and neck, incisions are created around ears, hairline and chin. Dissection of facial muscles tightens the loosely bound muscles. The smoothly contoured neckline is obtained through suturing and dividing of muscle bands of a neck. Following suturing, extra deposition of fatty material from neck, ears and jowls is removed to bring back the lost tightening of the skin. Results can last for 5 years.
Mini lift (S-lift):
The steps involved are the same as that of the traditional facelift. This technique positions an S-shaped small incision, encompassing ears that result in lifting one-third of the face by altering the shape of neck and chin. This treatment takes shorter recovery time as compared to a full facelift.
Mid facelift:
Surgeons undergoing this treatment centres only eyes and cheeks rather than the whole face. The treatment is playing a role in removing eyes’ bagginess and tightening of underlying muscles of cheekbones. Incisions are marked in the hairline and within the mouth.
MACS lift/Quick lift:
Both are the modifications of S-lift.
Vampire facelift:
It is the most advancing technique that involves centrifugation of patient’s blood. Blood is sampled from the arm and allowed for centrifugation to separate the platelets. As platelets have regenerative property, these are injected into the face to increase the speed of the healing process. Basically, platelets encourage the production of collagen, giving a patient a fresh healthy looking skin.
