There is
no
typical facelift. Many different
variations are possible, depending on the individual
situation and requirement.
When only one
specific area of the face is tightened and
corrected, it’s referred to as a local/partial
face lift or correction. In contrast to a
classical facelift, in a minimally invasive
facelift, the endoscope is used. It is possible to
tighten just the skin layer (Soft Lift) or to
include also the supporting connective tissues
and muscles behind the skin as is done with the SMAS
facelift or the platysma lift on the
neck, or a combination of both of them,
defined as the
complete SMAS Face and Necklift [see the graphic
above]. A series of
criteria is taken in consideration by the
experienced specialist during the consultation for
an individually tailored solution of aging
correction and face rejuvenation.
-
Your personal expectations.
-
our age and the
quality/elasticity of your skin.
-
whether
or not aging signs are limited to a local area
of the face (or neck) or if they are present on
all the areas of
the
face and the neck.
-
The
question of whether or not the aging signs are
even present on all areas of the face or if the
different areas are in different stages of aging.
By
the
younger patient the problem areas are mainly in the upper area
of the face , where
wrinkles on the forehead,
expression lines on the glabella, and drooping
eyelids frequently appear as early signs of aging.
The problem areas of older patients extend over all
the areas of the face, especially over the area of
the cheeks, jaw and neck. So, one of the most
frequently applied version by the younger patient is
the Forehead Lift with glabella, eventually
including also the blepharoplasty (eyelid lift).
By
the
older
patient the problem areas extend usually over all areas
of the face, especially over
the cheeks, jaw and
neck area. While by the younger patient a Forehead
Lift eventually with Eyelid Lift or Glabella Lift
most frequently brings the best aesthetical result,
by the older patient the SMAS mid face lift with
neck lift, or the complete SMAS Face and Neck lead
to the best results of rejuvenation.

Minimum
invasive Endoscopy |
|
The minimally invasive endoscope allows the
effective correction of single problem areas. On
younger patients or on patients with not too much
drooping skin it is possible to perform a complete minimally invasive facelift
(Endoscopic
face lift) that includes all the areas of the face
and the neck. Not every plastic surgeon is
specialized in the area of endoscopic plastic
surgery and endoscopic facelift. Learn about the ...
Endoscopic
face lift.
During your personal consultation the experienced
specialist will find out which areas of your face
are in which aging stage. This is the fist step
toward finding the right surgery for you. Generally
with a patient up to 40-45 years the endoscopic face
lift combined with local laser resurfacing lead to
excellent results, without any visible scars.

Complete
SMAS face & neck lift |
|
For the patient over 45 usually the complete
SMAS Face and Necklift or the complete
reconstruction of the anatomy of the youthful face
represents the most successful existing forms of
treatment.

Facial
rejuvenation - Tailor made face lift |
|
The experienced and specialized facial
rejuvenation plastic surgeon is able to individually
connect/combine the different methods and techniques
of endoscopy, laser dermatology and classical
facelift, in response to the individual
situation and requirements of each
single patient. The resulting rebuilding
of the anatomy of the youthful face
requires specialized qualifications,
skills and experience on the part of the
surgeon. Thanks to the different
advantages of the different methods,
with the reconstruction operation the
specialized plastic surgeon can achieve
a higher level of quality in the result,
minimizing or even excluding visible
scars.
A facelift or complete facial rejuvenation
surgery lasts 3-5 hours.
During this time the experienced,
specialized plastic surgeon carries out very
fine,
precise
sculpuring work. His
experience, his
skills and his aesthetic feeling
determine the quality of the result.
