Face Lifting

Rhytidectomy, also known as a facelift or face-lifting operation, is one of the most popular operations among plastic operations. A Facelift surgery is meant mainly for men and women, who time has given its marks on their face, and who are concerned with having fallen chicks, dropping chin, loose face skin, or a skin or forehead full of wrinkles. The Facelift operation attains its great popularity thanks to its ability to enable one's look to go back in time, and sometimes even many years back.
In the past, the patients who chose to go through a facelift procedure or one of its derivatives ("mini lift", neck stretch, forehead lifting, forehead wrinkles removal, sunken chin, etc.) were around their late 40's and up. However, awareness to esthetics and the importance of a young look in everyday life for work purposes or out of personal need has grown and lowered the average age of the potential patients wishing for a facelift operation. Today many people choose to go through this operation or a minor facelift procedure (a neck stretch alone, for example) also in their 30's, in order to deduct years of their age and look their best.
In the past, the facelift procedure was mainly linked to the overall procedure that included vast changes of the face, like forehead lifting, neck stretching, chin lifting, liposuction and more. These procedures created a significant and comprehensive change. Nevertheless, over the last few years, different techniques that enable to make only minor changes with a smaller scope, have been much more popular because of their shorter recovery time and minimized risks.
However, it is unanimously known that the most effective treatment for a patient asking to get long lasting results in the field of wrinkle removal and attaining the young look is still the comprehensive facelift, which often includes also Liposuction, forehead lifting, eyelids lifting and more.
