Look 10 years younger with a facelift

Facelift: for whom? Why ? 

Over time, we see how our face lengthens, cheekbones sag and dimples appear. Then our face begins to lose its oval, and horror! We see jaws and nasolabial folds that point to their nose. That's it, aging is really on the doorstep!

What to do ?

The answer is simple: a facelift.

A surgical procedure that aims to eliminate the effects of time on the face, aims to eliminate sagging and loss of skin elasticity.

Although it is usually indicated when signs of aging are visible, the need for a facelift varies from patient to patient. Lifestyle (frequent sun exposure, smoking, etc.) remains a determining factor in demand.

What are the types of facelift?

Each of us has a unique face and very specific needs for beautification and rejuvenation. In order to satisfy a variety of requests, cosmetic facial surgery specialists have developed several types of facelift:

– Cervical facial lifting, the action of which extends to the entire face and even affects the lower part of the face and neck. This technique corrects sagging cheeks and chin, reduces wrinkles and redefines the contour of the face.

– A mini facelift, also called a partial facelift, has a moderate effect on the face. Indeed, it is done through a slight exfoliation of the skin and targets very specific areas (lower face, neck).

– Temporary facelift, the action of which is aimed at eliminating the signs of aging that appear at the level of the temples. It can be done alone or in combination with other interventions.

– Forehead lift, the action of which is focused on the upper third of the face (frontal wrinkles and eyebrows). The forehead lift is being used less and less as it can now be replaced by Botox injections.

How is a facelift performed in Tunisia?

The principle is almost the same for all types of facelifts: incisions are made in certain areas of the face to move tissues that have sagged with age. Thus, the skin is tightened, and the structures of the face return to their place.

The difference lies in the degree of exposure (deep or moderate), as well as the location of the treated area (lower face, forehead, temple, etc.).

Other differences:

— Duration. The cervicofacial lift is more complex and requires more time (between 2:30 and 4:XNUMX).

- Type of anesthesia. A cervicofacial lift is performed under general anesthesia, while other types of facelift can be performed under local anesthesia.

- Hospitalization. A neck and facelift requires an overnight hospital stay, while other types of facelifts can be performed on an outpatient basis.

What results can be expected from a facelift in Tunisia?

A facelift is not intended to make deep changes, but rather to restore the original structures of the face in order to restore its original appearance.

So you have nothing to worry about. You will be entitled to rejuvenation with very natural notes and refreshment in perfect harmony with your mood! 

The average duration of a facelift is estimated to be between 8 and 15 years. This obviously depends on the quality of the skin, but also and above all on the technical know-how of your surgeon. So, we can't replicate this enough, take the time to choose who gets a facelift!

Can a facelift be enough to give you back a youthful and fresh look?

Not always. Indeed, a facelift only affects the signs of aging affecting certain areas of the face (lower face, forehead, temples, neck, etc.). For example, it does not treat wrinkles of the lips or eyelids.

This is why a facelift is often combined with other types of interventions such as blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery). 

On the other hand, a facelift cannot fill the volume of the face. To do this, he uses fat injections, known as lipofilling.

The secret to a successful facelift?

A qualified and competent specialist whose gestures are adapted to the needs and characteristics of each patient. Indeed, a good surgeon acquires a deep knowledge of the anatomy and structures of the face, which allows him to offer his patients effective rejuvenation without causing the face to lose its harmony.
