A facelift is an ideal choice for individuals who want to address signs of aging in the face and neck. This procedure can improve concerns such as sagging skin, deep creases, jowls, and loss of facial volume. By lifting and tightening the underlying tissues and removing excess skin, a facelift can restore a more youthful and rejuvenated facial contour.
A facelift involves the surgical lifting and repositioning of the underlying facial tissues and muscles, as well as the removal of excess skin. There are many types of facelift and at Profile Aesthetic, we focus on two versatile techniques: the Deep Plane Facelift and VR Facelift. The deep plane facelift is a complex technique that targets the deeper layers of the face for more comprehensive rejuvenation. The VR (vertical vector) facelift is a technique that focuses on vertical lifting to achieve a natural and long-lasting result with less extensive dissection. Our skilled surgeons will determine the most suitable technique based on your specific case.
Facelifts can be combined with a number of different procedures in order to provide a holistic, durable result:
These treatments address all the features of facial ageing and can be combined to achieve outstanding results.
A facelift offers several benefits, including a smoother and tighter facial contour, reduction of wrinkles and sagging skin, improved jawline definition, and a more youthful appearance. This procedure can help you regain confidence, enhance facial harmony, and turn back the clock on visible signs of aging.
On the day of the procedure, you will arrive at our clinic, and our caring staff will guide you through the process. Your surgeon will confirm the details of the procedure and any additional treatments that you have agreed in your treatment plan. The surgeon will make some surgical markings and take preoperative photographs for your medical records. The surgical team will perform the facelift surgery according to the personalizsed treatment plan, utilising the chosen technique. The procedure is typically performed under local anaesthesia and sedation to ensure your comfort throughout.
After the procedure you will be taken to our purpose-built recovery suite where you will be looked-after by one of our experienced nurses.
Following the recovery period, you can expect a more youthful and rejuvenated facial appearance. A facelift can help improve facial sagging, tighten loose skin, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and creases. The results of a facelift can be long-lasting, and while the natural aging process will continue, you can enjoy the benefits for many years with proper skincare and a healthy lifestyle.
