Rhytidoplasty is a procedure designed to combat the signs of aging in the face and neck, such as sagging, deep expression lines and fat accumulation in the jowls.
Currently, this technique seeks natural results by rearranging the facial muscles instead of just tightening the skin, avoiding the artificial appearance of traditional surgeries.
Benefits:
- Restores a natural, youthful appearance.
- Eliminates flaccidity in face and neck.
- Defines facial contours without altering the natural expression.
Procedure:
Incisions are made in strategic and hidden areas, such as the natural folds of the skin, behind the ears and hair, so that scars are minimal and discreet.
Ideal candidates:
- Persons over 50 years of age or with premature signs of aging.
Postoperative and results:
- Normal initial swelling, with recovery in 2-3 weeks.
- Visible results for 6-8 years, depending on personal habits and skin quality.
- Scars are almost imperceptible over time.
