facelift

A facelift or rhytidectomy counteracts the signs of aging by removing excess skin, tightening the skin, and repositioning deeper structures to their proper position. Sagging cheeks, deep creases or "smile lines", loose skin on the face and neck, and even a double chin can all be corrected with a variety of facelift techniques. The result is a more youthful appearance of the face and neck and a fresh appearance to the skin.

During your consultation, Dr. Liszka will discuss your desires and provide an individualized treatment plan that is right for you. Despite the technique used, most facelifts leave barely noticeable scars that are hidden in natural fold lines or at the hairline. These scars become almost invisible over time.

Other procedures frequently done in conjunction with a facelift include eyelid surgery, browlift, laser resurfacing, rhinoplasty, and cheek or chin implants. Some patients also desire only contouring of the neck area. Those patients may be candidates for a necklift, which is essentially the lower half of a facelift, but is less invasive.
