Facelifting Treatment In Mumbai
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but it is also true that the first thing someone
notices about anyone is their face. Facial attractiveness is what draws a stranger to you. Sagging skin and
sagging fat on the face can make one look older. Fine wrinkles and deep furrows around the mouth (nasolabial
and marionette lines) and eyes (crow’s feet) or folds such as the jowls, can not only age the face but also
make it look less attractive, tired, sad or angry. With Facelift, one can not only halt the progression of
time, but in some cases even reverse it, as per the patient’s wishes.
The Natural process of ageing starts showing on a person's face by their mid-20s. The rate
of the progression depends on a number of factors which are either genetic or environmental, or both.
Environmental factors like improper nutrition, sudden weight loss, smoking, stress, bodily disorders or other
diseases, etc can cause accelerated ageing. One can reverse ageing using Facelift which includes surgical and
non-surgical methods.
There are many signs of aging on the face that make one appear years older than they are.
One can correct sagging skin, deep wrinkles, facial hollows, and wrinkles with a facelift or rhytidectomy
surgery.
What is Facelift?
The term we like to use now is facial REJUVENATION. A facelift surgery entails not only lifting your face, but also helps make you look
younger and more attractive. It also includes injecting fat into deflated areas of the face. Other modalities
too such as peels, lasers and injectables may be used to improve the results further. Only a plastic surgeon with training can do it safely and amalgamate everything
needed to make you look a younger and a better you!
Types of Face Lifts
They are 2 Types of FaceLifts
Mini Facelift : Using small, inconspicuous incisions under the hairline, your
surgeon can tighten and smooth out your skin while also removing excess tissue during this type of surgical
facelift. Jowls can usually be reduced or eliminated completely with a mini facelift. As you age, jowls
usually develop around the lower half of your cheeks and mouth.
Mid Facelift :A mid-facelift targets the cheeks, as the name implies. The cheeks
are not plumped up with implants, unlike cheek implants . The
facial plastic surgeon will either remove excess tissue or use existing tissue to lift up the cheeks,
eliminate sagging, and remove fine lines and wrinkles. A mid-facelift is highly recommended for patients
without jowls or marionette lines. As well as removing jowls and marionette lines, it can also be performed
in conjunction with this procedure.

answer varies. In order to determine if a patient is a suitable candidate for facelift surgery, Dr. Shah

procedure. A facelift may not necessarily help a patient achieve his or her facial rejuvenation goals, in
which case Dr. Shah may recommend alternative procedures.

wrinkles and sun damaged skin can all be treated. Also, Facelift can give you a sharper jawline and correct

of facelifts which are done as per the person's requirements including the mini facelift, complete facelift
or non-surgical methods like a thread lift or using HIFU or RF for improving all the different layers of
your face.

These are usually opted for by
patients between ages 35-55, or above. Before 35, there are multiple non-surgical methods available for

A facelift can be painful, but how painful is it?
The first 7 to 10 days following a
facelift are characterized by feelings of fullness and pulling, which can be well managed with pain
medication. The discomfort diminishes as the swelling subsides. Cold packs can greatly reduce swelling in
the face. In most cases, patients can switch to non-narcotic pain medications after a few days.

younger patients who don't have deep wrinkles or heavy sagging. These methods include hyaluronic acid
fillers, fat injections, threadlifts, and botulinum toxin. Energy-based devices like RF (radio frequency)
