Facelift
A facelift refreshes the lower face and neck by lifting deeper tissues and removing excess skin. This surgery aims to soften jowls and sagging for a natural, more youthful appearance. Initial recovery takes about two weeks, and the full benefits are enjoyed as the tissues settle over the following months.
Facelift explained
A facelift refreshes the lower face and neck by gently lifting and re-draping tissue to soften the signs of ageing.
What is a facelift?
A facelift tightens and repositions the deeper tissues of the lower face and neck and removes or re-drapes loose skin, softening sagging and deep folds. Modern techniques aim for a natural, refreshed look rather than an overly tight appearance.
Is it right for me?
It suits healthy adults noticing sagging or laxity in the lower face and neck who want a natural refresh and have realistic expectations. Your surgeon assesses your skin and facial structure and may suggest combining or alternative treatments.
How it's done, step by step
- 1
Consultation & facial assessment.
- 2
Anaesthetic: general anaesthetic or sedation, decided with your surgeon.
- 3
Lifting: tissues are repositioned through incisions placed discreetly around the ears and hairline.
- 4
Re-draping & closure: excess skin is trimmed and incisions closed.
- 5
Dressings are applied to support healing.
What you'll experience
It's planned as a short-stay procedure with a full pre-op assessment. Your consultant coordinates your stay and aftercare in your language.
Recovery & results timeline
Expect bruising, swelling and dressings, with the main swelling settling over a couple of weeks and scars fading over months. The refreshed result becomes natural-looking as healing completes over several months.
