Face lift
Face lift – when it is most appropriate
This plastic surgery of the face is a solution to signs of ageing of the skin and delicate facial muscles. The best results can be achieved if the surgery is performed during the optimal period, which depends on the type of face, its skin quality and elasticity. An important prerequisite for surgery is good health and skin without festering sores or skin diseases.
Before the final decision regarding performance of the face lift is made, a personal consultation with a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon is necessary.
Face lift – principles and results
During performance of a face lift excess skin is removed from the patient’s face and neck and the skin and the sub-dermal connective tissue structures, which help keep skin stretched for a longer time, are tightened. Facial plastic surgery cannot stop the ageing process, but it can reduce signs of ageing by several years. It is essential to mention the fact that vertical wrinkles around the mouth and on the forehead are caused by expression muscles and cannot be removed by face lifting.
Face lift - recovery
Face lifting can be performed under local or general anaesthesia. The patient stays overnight at the clinic and is usually released the following day after bandages are changed. It is recommended he/she rests for 4 days and follows all advice from doctors. Normal reactions following surgery include moderate facial swelling, sensations of tension and reduced skin sensitivity. All negative side effects disappear after several days or weeks.
