A facelift, medically known as rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to address visible signs of facial ageing, including sagging skin, loss of definition, and changes in facial contours. At Bombay Hospital Jaipur, facelift surgery is individually planned according to facial anatomy, skin quality, age-related changes, and the patient's aesthetic goals.
What Can a Facelift Address?
A facelift may help improve:
Sagging skin around the cheeks and lower face Jowls and loss of jawline definition Loose skin around the neck Deep folds and facial creases associated with ageing Changes in lower facial contour
A facelift primarily addresses sagging and excess skin. It does not eliminate every fine line or replace treatments designed specifically for skin texture.
During consultation, the plastic surgeon evaluates facial structure, skin elasticity, the degree of tissue laxity, and areas of concern. Depending on the individual case, surgery may involve repositioning deeper facial tissues, removing excess skin, and improving the contours of the face and neck.
A facelift may sometimes be combined with procedures such as neck lift, eyelid surgery, or facial fat grafting, depending on the patient's needs and treatment plan.
Swelling, bruising, tightness, and temporary changes in sensation are common following surgery. Recovery varies between individuals and depends on the extent of the procedure. Patients are generally advised to avoid strenuous activity during the initial healing period and attend scheduled follow-up appointments.
The results develop progressively as swelling settles and tissues heal. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and protecting the skin from excessive sun exposure can support long-term skin health.
