Face Lift

Rhytidectomy

The face is involved in every interaction one has with others. The effects of aging, sun damage, pollution, and general stress take their toll on an individual's face, neckline and self-esteem. Creases, wrinkles, sagging as well as folds and fat deposits under the jaw line (jowls) can begin to transform one's appearance and identity dramatically.

A facelift can turn back the clock and considerably reduce these undesirable changes by removing excess fat, tightening the underlying muscles and re-draping the skin around the neck and face. Facelifts can be done alone or in conjunction with another procedure such as a brow lift, eyelid surgery, chin augmentation or nose reshaping. If the problem areas are limited to the neck, an isolated "neck lift" may be recommended. Dr. Samaha successfully provides his patients with a less "surgical" and more natural look by using a variety of advanced surgical methods, including short scar techniques.

Having a facelift does not change the shape of your nose, eyes or forehead.

The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia with sedation, or under general anesthesia.
