Cosmetic Surgery

Facelifts, technically referred to as a rhytidectomy is a form of cosmetic surgery that can be used to induce a more youthful appearance in a persons face by removing wrinkles and skin folds by tightening excess skin around the face. A facelift can be an especially painful procedure to recover from and many patients report great feelings of discomfort in the recovery period immediately after undergoing a face lift procedure.

A facelift is usually performed by a plastic surgeon or other medical professional skilled in cosmetic surgery. An incision is made running from the ear lobe and up across the hair line, the skin is then separated from the other deeper tissues making up the structure of the face and the skin is then pulled back and the excess is removed. As with most cosmetic surgery procedures there are risks involved with facelifts, especially if they are poorly performed. For example if an inexperienced cosmetic surgeon were to remove too much skin the patient’s face appear as though they were facing a strong wind as the skin would be pulled too tightly across the face. However there are also much more serious complications which can occur from undergoing a facelift, for example nerves could be damaged or infection could occur. However the procedure is is performed by a properly qualified plastic surgeon then the chances of these serious complications happening are extremely slim, although it is important to note that the outcome of facelift cosmetic surgery is very often unpredictable and many people are unsatisfied with their result. A bad facelift can often leave the patient looking very unusual or in some cases with serious bruising all across the face.
