A facelift is considered by many to be the gold-standard method of facial rejuvenation. However, the term ‘facelift’ is often used to refer to a wide range of procedures that have many different implications and outcomes. Understanding what a facelift entails, as well as the intricacies of each variation, is key to ensuring you choose an option that best addresses your concerns.

MODERN
FACELIFTS
In decades gone by, our understanding of the ageing process was more limited. We assumed that the face aged as a result of gravity causing the tissues to drop – therefore, facelift surgery evolved on the basis of pulling tissues as tight as possible. However, in their efforts to reposition the tissues to a more youthful position, surgeons found that pulling tighter simply resulted in an unnatural, “windswept” appearance – a tell-tale sign of having had surgery.
It has only been in the last few decades that we’ve come to truly understand the effect of volume loss on the face, and how this impacts the three-dimensional facial structure. Consequently, the modern approach to full face-lifting revolves around holistic volume restoration to the entire face.
