If you think of a facelift, what exactly do you imagine? You might imagine a procedure involving parts of the skin being removed, and others stretched, to help get rid of wrinkles and restore a smooth and wrinkle-free appearance. That certainly is part of it. But do you imagine one monolithic procedure that’s repeated from patient to patient? This is an assumption that’s often made but it’s far from the truth.
The truth is that a facelift is actually very effective at targeting different parts of the face, using multiple benefits to improve its appearance while reversing the sights of aging. From removing excess skin and tightening sagging skin to smoothing deep wrinkles and folds, as well as lifting facial tissues, it has a wide range of benefits.
What’s more, there are many different types of facelifts, each targeting different parts of the face. A cheek lift targets both the cheeks and brows, while a traditional facelift focuses more on the forehead, beneath the eyes, and just above the jawline. As such, if there are particular parts of your face that you might consider to be your aging “weak points,” then there is a good chance that there is a facelift that can help you target these areas.
There are also other procedures that can enhance a facelift, such as an eyelid surgery, a brow lift, or jawline rejuvenation. To learn more about facelifts and their wide variety of applications, take a look at the below infographic.
