What Is A Facelift?
Refine Plastic Surgery provides a full spectrum of facial surgical treatments in Midland-Odessa, TX. One of our most popular surgeries is a facelift. This surgery focuses on precise regions of the face to smooth drooping skin and lines to result in a more youthful-looking, firmer appearance. Depending on your unique concerns, a facelift can focus on the areas around the eyes, the mid-face area and cheeks, the bottom portion including the mouth, jowls, neck, and more for an all-encompassing younger look. The facelift method used depends on your desired outcome, the condition of your skin, the degree of skin laxity, age, lifestyle, and other influences. Some men and women are of age and have skin laxity for a full facelift while others may only want a mid-facelift. Our skilled plastic surgeon has a complete understanding of the anatomy and complex intricacies of facelift surgery. The goal is to create a natural look that's smooth and appealing. Contact us today to schedule an appointment. Surgical consultations are held at our Odessa, TX location. All surgeries are performed at Choice Care Surgery Center in Midland, TX, an advanced, fully accredited, and state-of-the-art outpatient ambulatory surgical center.
What Is Our Surgical Technique for A Facelift?
Depending on your individual needs, there are various levels of facelifts available. Some facelifts rejuvenate the upper portion of the face, and others focus on the lower two-thirds. Moreover, some procedures are slightly more invasive and intricate than others. It is also common for some patients to have a brow lift or BOTOX® and fillers to complement their final results. A few of the more known facelift techniques include:
- Full facelift: Considered the gold standard, the full or "traditional" facelift most often makes an incision near the hairline, then extends down to the temples, stopping near the base of the ears. The deeper layer of facial tissues and muscles is delicately stretched and securely tightened to create a lifted look, which diminishes excessive lines and wrinkles. A full facelift is reserved for patients who show signs of aggressive aging. During a full facelift, several techniques may be used, including upper or lower blepharoplasty to enhance the eyes or a neck lift for the lower region.
- Mid-facelift: Using a similar technique to the mini facelift, the surgery known as a mid-facelift focuses on the droopy features near the cheekbones and the upper jaw. This lift works nicely for those who desire improvement in the middle to lower region of the face, which also improves the look of the jowls.
- Lower facelift: This particular facelift corrects the neck and chin and sometimes the jowls. Methods of a nonsurgical nature can also be used for chin augmentation to attain a younger, tighter-looking neck.
- Mini facelift: When undergoing a mini facelift, a tiny incision is placed around the ears to elevate the skin, which helps the mid to lower face. This process creates nice and subtle enhancements that look natural.
