A face-lift (medical name: rhytidectomy) is the ultra fast method for replacing the wrinkles with smooth skin. The whole tissue structure is re-assembled and re-positioned to give a youthful look.
Post surgery..
- Your face will be bandaged after the surgery.
- The dressings are usually removed 1 to 2 days later.
- If a drainage tube has been placed (usually behind the ear), it will also be removed 1 to 2 days after the surgery.
- Your doctor will remove your stitches within 5 to 10 days.
Is face-lift effective?
- A face-lift can does diminish the signs of aging
- But it cannot remove all facial wrinkles around the eyes, below the nose, and around the lips.
- A lot…mean a lot depends upon the skill of the surgeon
Risks
- Reactions to the anesthesia.
- Bleeding under the skin.
- Infection.
- Damage to the nerves that supply the muscles of the face. This can cause paralysis or spasm in the face, but the effects are usually temporary.
- Hair loss (alopecia).
- Tissue loss.
- Scarring.
- Blood clots in large veins traveling up to the heart and lungs (pulmonary embolism). This is not common.
Its a fact that any plastic surgery is anti-nature and this is the greatest risk. Anytime we play with nature, we give nature the license to destruct. The same applies to face lift.
But, then human being’s quest for beauty & attention is the dominant factor.
