With Dr. Mark Kohout

What is a Face Lift?

A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure designed to address the visible signs of ageing on the face and neck. The procedure involves tightening the underlying muscles and tissues, removing excess skin, and repositioning facial contours. Facelifts can address sagging skin, deep creases, and loss of volume in the face. The surgery can be performed using various techniques, depending on the patient’s specific needs and desired outcomes. Recovery time varies, but most patients can expect some swelling and bruising that gradually subsides over time.

Who May Benefit

Individuals with sagging skin or jowls that create a heavy look.
Adults with deep creases around the nose and mouth area.
Those with a noticeable loss of facial volume or definition.

Additionally, hematoma formation, or localized bleeding, might arise and could require drainage.
