Facelift Surgery in Delhi

Facelift surgery, also known as rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic procedure designed to tighten and remove sagging skin on the face and neck. It helps rejuvenate the face, reducing visible signs of aging and restoring a smoother, more youthful appearance. Ideal for those looking to lift drooping skin, remove excess fat, and redefine facial contours.

Why Is Facelift Surgery Done?

Facelift surgery is sought by individuals wishing to reverse the visible signs of aging, such as sagging skin, deep wrinkles, and loss of facial volume. This surgery tightens loose skin, smooths out folds, and lifts sagging tissues, providing a more youthful and refreshed look.

Types of Facelift Surgery

• Traditional Facelift: Involves incisions around the hairline and behind the ears, ideal for addressing significant sagging and wrinkles.
• Mini Facelift: A less invasive option focusing on lifting the lower face and neck, suitable for early signs of aging.
• Mid-Facelift: Targets sagging in the cheek area and under the eyes to restore a youthful look.
• Thread Lift: A minimally invasive procedure using sutures to lift and tighten the skin for subtle results.

Process of Facelift Surgery

• Anesthesia: General or local anesthesia with sedation is administered for comfort during the procedure.
• Incisions: Incisions are made based on the type of facelift, with an emphasis on minimizing visible scarring.
• Tissue Repositioning: Underlying tissues are lifted and excess skin is removed to create a firmer appearance.
• Closure: Incisions are closed with sutures, and the area is bandaged.
• Recovery: The surgery typically lasts between 2-5 hours, depending on the extent of the procedure.

Before and After the Procedure

• Before the Procedure: Avoid smoking and certain medications as advised by your surgeon. Discuss your medical history and desired results with Dr. Anuj Aggarwal.
• After the Procedure: Expect some swelling and bruising, which will subside over time. Most patients resume normal activities within 2-3 weeks, with full recovery in 4-6 weeks.
