This procedure
removes face skin excess and correct facial angles that
could be altered due to gravity effects.
Rhytidoplasty
does not stop facial ageing process only hides it when
the skin excess is eliminated, soften expression lines
(wrinkles) when the skin is stressed and the face musculature
and recreates again the correct face angles.
In this surgery
we can work all the middle third of the face and neck,
or only neck. Incisions are performed and camouflage
around the ear and if it is only neck the incision goes
in the back part of the ear. These scars with the time
are almost imperceptibles.

This is a surgery
that could rejuvenate you almost 15 years, according
to the age in which it is performed.
Generally it
is performed under general anesthesia and takes almost
4 to 6 hours. The patient can return to his/her home
the same day but most of the time it is better to stay
in the hospital the first night. Recovery lasts 2 weeks. |
