Types of a facelifts

Aging of the face can occur according to several scenarios (wrinkled, deformed, tired and senile aging types of aging).

The optimal type of a facelift and the correction zones are selected for each scenario and skin type:

• Lower facelift. The incisions are performed under the chin line. Lifting and correction of the lower part of the face cover the areas of the neck, chin and lower jaw.
• Midface lift in San Diego. The incisions are performed in the region of the temples and upper lip. Cheeks and nasolabial folds are being corrected.
• Upper facelift. The incisions are performed in the area of the hairline. Areas of eyes, eyebrows and forehead are corrected.
• Complex correction of facial skin. The procedure covers several zones at once. The plan of the operation is developed individually.

There are the following types of facelifts:

SMAS Facelift

The most effective technique of plastic surgery. SMAS technology provides a comprehensive effect on the skin, as well as muscle, connective and adipose tissue.

These operations provide a high precision and a maximum natural, long-lasting results.

Facelift Subcutaneous

The technique is aimed at eliminating age-related skin defects. In this case, the muscular-aponeurotic system remains unchanged.

Endoscopic facelift in San Diego. Can affect all layers of the facial structure – skin, fatty tissue, fascial flap. The peculiarity is that all manipulations are carried out by means of a special device with a camera through small incisions in the oral cavity and in the area of the hairline.

Endoscopic facelift using endotins. In addition to the basic operation (tightening the contour and eliminating age defects), special threads are implanted in the skin, which provoke the production of collagen and return the skin elasticity.

Methods of facelift are selected individually – in accordance with the type of skin and the degree of the aging changes. Prices for a facelift depend on the type and complexity of the operation, while you can limit yourself to a particular zone (eyes, forehead, chin) or perform a full facelift.

Postoperative period

Recovery period depends on the depth of surgical intervention. The operations are performed under general anesthesia, and depending on the complexity and can last from 1.5 to 6 hours. You can evaluate the first results in 3 weeks, and the final effect can be observed after 2 – 2.5 months.
The dynamics of recovery – what can and can not be done?

1. The first hours after the operation – exit from anesthesia. There may be unpleasant sensations, nausea, heart rhythm disturbances, etc. (Individually).
2. The first 3 – 5 days must remain in the clinic under the supervision of medical staff. Anesthetics and antibiotics are prescribed. In the first days after the operation, it is worthwhile to refrain from active facial expressions (laughing, crying, frowning, etc.).
3. A tight bandage is removed on the second day after the operation. In the next 7-14 days (depending on the type of operation), special compression masks are used.
4. titches in different areas are removed after 5 to 14 days. Stitches can not be soaked, so hygienic procedures are performed with a cotton disc. Hematomas and swelling can persist for up to two to three weeks.

Until the complete recovery of tissues (approximately 2 months), it is necessary to refrain from:

• The influence of ultraviolet (solarium, sun tan);
• Bath, sauna, hot tub;
• Intense physical activity;
• Hair coloring;
• Alcohol, cigarettes.

Possible complications

Major side effects may be associated with surgery. Basically, these are trifles, which themselves disappear within a short period – swelling, bruises. More unpleasant consequences arise as a result of infection of wounds, therefore, in the first days after the operation, correct care of the seams and the prescribed preparations is extremely important. In rare cases, numb areas of the skin or pigment (or depigmented) spots may appear.
