Face Lift
Are You a Good Candidate for Face Lift ?
No one is immune to facial aging. It is true, that some ethnicities tend to show the effects of aging more slowly than others, but the descent of facial fat and muscles, as well as the stretching of skin, occurs in everyone. If it bothers you, you should do something about it. If you think that you look older than you feel, this may actually make you feel older, in a somewhat self-fulfilling prophecy. Good candidates include those with the following problems.
- Jowling or fat accumulation along the jaw line.
- Markedly pronounced fold above the upper lip otherwise known as nasal labial fold.
- Saggy facial skin.
- Deep facial wrinkles.
- Deep circles underneath the eyes.
- Loss of cheek fat.
- Loss of youthful look.
- Corners of mouth have fallen down.
The candidates for neck lifting are referred to the neck lift section.
It should be mentioned that face lifting does not improve the texture of the skin. This is best managed with chemical peeling or laser skin resurfacing, both of which would be done separately from the face lift.
