If you are unhappy with the lower two-thirds of your face, Dr. Thomas may suggest you undergo a rhytidectomy procedure. A rhytidectomy, or facelift, is designed to correct conditions associated with an aging face. Visible indicators include saggy or loose skin and loss of facial muscle tone. A facelift can correct these indicators by removing excess skin from the face and neck, and sculpting the underlying tissues and muscles in your jaw, cheek, and neck area.
A facelift can be combined with other procedures to strengthen your chin and improve your brow or eye area. These include brow, chin, or eyelid surgery.
To expedite healing and minimize discomfort, please follow Dr. Thomas's explicit directions. Dr. Thomas will advise you to avoid strenuous activities right after surgery.
