A short intro of facelift procedure

Surgeons across the world have long been performing facelifts and other similar cosmetic procedures, and bringing smiles on thousands and millions of people’s face with great results. Although only people from affluent class went for it in the past, today this scenario has undergone a complete change because the cost of the surgery has come down to a considerable extent which in turn has made it affordable.

Also, people who went for such a surgery in the past used to it keep it as a top secret, but now facelift surgery patients in Auckland and other major cities of the world are being open about it. They do discuss it freely with their loved ones. Initially, the surgery involved pulling back of the skin from the year and cutting off the excess skin to give a wrinkle free and firmer look to the patient’s face. Much of it has changed today because the earlier procedure did not provide people with a natural appearance. 

As with most of the cosmetic procedures, facelift too has undergone a lot of change and evolved into a sophisticated form of surgery. Today, surgeons performing this procedure spend a significant amount of time studying the anatomy of the human face before planning the surgery. Various factors are also taken into account including age of the patient and facial features.

Face tells a great deal about the age of a person. Wrinkles and fine lines along with age spots develop on the skin over a period of time which makes a person look older and less attractive. In addition, the skin also becomes thinner with age and loses elasticity which leads to the development of such wrinkles and fine lines.

 In order to reverse this procedure, the only option we have till date is to perform a surgical facelift which will remove the deepest of wrinkles and skin folds to give the patient a younger and rejuvenated look.

Another very important fact to be taken into consideration is that results of facelift procedures may vary from patient to patient. Also, not every individual is an ideal candidate for the surgery.

In case if you do not have deep wrinkles and skin folds on your face, for instance, then you might not require this surgery in the first place because you can get rid of them through other non invasive procedures which are not only less painful but are less expensive as well.
