Face Lift

What is a Facelift Surgery?

Facelift surgery, also known as rhytidectomy, lifts and firms sagging facial tissues to restore a more naturally youthful facial appearance. It is often said that having a facelift works to “turn back the clock,” helping a patient look like a younger version of him or herself.

By removing excess, sagging skin, smoothing deep folds, and lifting and tightening the deep facial tissues, rhytidectomy can help a patient look not just younger, but simply “better.”

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a facelift cost?
There is no set price for a facelift. Factors that determine your cost include what type of a facelift you get, how significant your skin sagging is and if you need to add on other treatments to replace lost volume. Your cost will include the surgeon’s fee, anesthesia fee and facility/OR fee, and could include other costs as well. To get an accurate estimate for your procedure, schedule a consultation with Dr. Pack.

How long does a facelift last?
If you take good care of your skin, eat a balanced diet and hydrate, you can expect your facelift results to last about 20 years, or 10 to 15 years with a mini facelift. Keep in mind that everyone is different and the way your body responds to surgery is unique to you. Don’t base your expectations on averages or others’ experiences.

What are the scars like after a facelift?
The incisions used for a facelift are very small. They are also made out of sight in most cases. Typical spots for facelift incisions include in the hairline, behind the ears and under the chin. While you might be able to feel their texture, most people find they fade to invisibility within a year of their surgery.
