We are a nation obsessed with beauty and youth and we put much value and emphasis on our looks. This could be why cosmetic face surgery is such a popular procedure in our culture. Its not just for the rich and famous anymore.
Cosmetic facelift surgery (also called Rhytidectomy) is intended to help remove the signs of aging in both the neck and face. Specifically sagging and creases get smoothed, fatty deposits are removed (like jowls), double chins get tucked, eyelids may be tightened, and so forth.
A facelift won’t change your appearance like reconstructive surgery would and it wont stop the aging process, but can help refresh your appearance by making you look less tired and sad. If you have other expectations from a cosmetic facelift surgery, you should consult with your surgeon to make sure you both understand what to expect.
Risks: As with any surgery there are risks that should factor into your decision making process. Facelifts can cause visible scars, infections, hair loss, nerve damage, skin loss, swelling and pain. If done poorly a person may find their face un-symmetrical, meaning corrective surgery may be necessary, and at quite a cost.
Cosmetic Facelift Costs: These costs vary from $6000 – $17,000 depending on the extent of your surgery, doctor fees, and location. Some people also include other procedures like a nose job or breast augmentation so they only have to under anesthesia once for multiple procedures.
