01

What is a Facelift?

A facelift is a surgical procedure that addresses visible signs of ageing in the lower face and jawline. As we age, skin loses elasticity and facial tissues begin to sag, resulting in jowls, deep creases and a tired appearance.

The facelift works by gently repositioning and tightening the underlying facial structure, removing excess skin and restoring a smoother, more youthful contour. The result is a refreshed appearance that still looks like you, just years younger.

For some patients, the best results are achieved by combining a facelift with a necklift in a single procedure. This allows for full rejuvenation of the lower face, jawline and neck with one recovery period. A combined approach may be discussed during your consultation if you are seeking more comprehensive facial contouring.

02

Who is Facelift For?

This treatment is ideal for individuals looking to address facial sagging, deep folds, or loss of definition around the cheeks and jawline. Suitable candidates are typically in their 40s to 70s, in good general health and looking for a long-lasting solution to facial ageing.

Whether you’re preparing for a major life event or simply wish to feel more confident in your own skin, a facelift offers significant rejuvenation without altering your natural features.

03

Benefits of a Facelift Surgery

A facelift can dramatically improve the appearance of sagging skin, jowls and deep lines, resulting in a smoother, firmer and more defined facial contour. Patients often describe feeling more refreshed and confident in both social and professional settings. The results are long-lasting, helping you maintain a youthful look for years to come without the need for frequent maintenance.

04

Recovery Timeline

Recovery after a facelift typically involves some swelling and bruising during the first one to two weeks. Most patients feel well enough to return to light activities within 10 to 14 days. It is common to experience temporary tightness or numbness in the lower face, which gradually improves over time.

While early results are visible as swelling subsides, full healing and refinement of the final contour may take several months. Post-operative support is available throughout your recovery to ensure the best possible outcome.
