FACELIFT & MINI FACELIFT
Discover the Fountain of Youth with a Facelift
The Nose Job, also known as rhinoplasty is an aesthetic procedure done to correct any imperfections or to get rid of disturbances (deviated septum, a deviated nasal bone, or a nasal hump) in the nose. Besides fixing any visual deformities (a large nose, a crooked nose, or a bulbous nose), structural problems that make breathing hard can be solved with the same procedure. For example, Septoplasty (correcting the bend inside the nose), concha hypertrophy(enlarged tissue in the nose), allergies(runny nose, sneezing), and endoscopic sinus surgery are in the scope of Rhinoplasty. Even snoring and sleep apnea can be treated!
What is a Facelift?
Facelift, medically known as rhytidectomy, is an aesthetic surgery in which methods like stretching and hanging are used. Also called ‘’facial rejuvenation’’, the main aim of this procedure is to minimise ageing effects and to bring youth and a fresh look.
Who is a Suitable Candidate for a Facelift?
Facelift is a convenient solution for people who have sagging and wrinkle issues around the face and neck area. Even though it is popular amongst people who are 40 years old or older, occasionally younger individuals may get a facelift for a rejuvenating look. Operations like rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, and brow lift can be done simultaneously with the Facelift procedure.
General Info about Facelift
Duration: A facelift is usually done in a hospital environment. Can be done under local or general anaesthesia. Even though it differs from patient to patient, facelifts duration is 3-10 hours.
Discharge: The patient needs to stay at the hospital overnight after the operation.
Incisions: Incisions that occurred during the operation can be hidden in the hair or back of the ear.
Healing and Aftercare
After the operation, it is normal to feel tension and numbness. Mild bruising and swelling are typical and to be expected. Certain facial nerves may be affected during the procedure, which could result in temporary asymmetry. However, this typically resolves within 3-5 days. Post-Op bandages are removed in a couple of days. Stitches and if attached drains are removed. The patient can mobilise in two days and do household chores. With the swelling gone and stitches removed, the patient can get back to a normal stream of life.
What is a Mini Facelift?
A Mini Facelift Operation is a facial aesthetic procedure done with modern techniques. This operation mainly aims to restore saggy skin and smooth out wrinkles. By replacing under-the-skin tissue, a patient can achieve a more youthful appearance without any interference to their facial expressions. This procedure can provide 10 to 12 years of rejuvenation.
Differences Between Facelift and Mini Facelift
Faster Healing: Smaller incisions with mini facelift translates into faster recovery and less swelling or bruising.
Shorter Operation Duration: With advanced technology, the Mini Facelift operation takes as quick as 1-1.5 hours.
