Facelift Surgery (Rhytidectomy) | Melbourne | Specialist Plastic Surgeons

A good candidate for a facelift typically exhibits signs of facial ageing such as loose skin, jowls, and wrinkles. Ideal candidates are in overall good health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations about the outcomes of the surgery. It’s important to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon to determine if a facelift is the right choice for your specific concerns and goals.

The time taken to complete your procedure will depend on the surgical approach taken by your chosen Specialist Plastic Surgeon. Typically, Facelift Surgery will take between 2-4 hours.

The exact technique your chosen Specialist Plastic Surgeon uses during a facelift depends on a number of factors, including your facial anatomy, the extent of the facelift.

Typically during the procedure, the surgeon makes incisions along the hairline and around the ears. They then reposition and tighten underlying tissues, remove excess skin, and close the incisions, resulting in a refreshed appearance.
