Understanding Facial Aging and Modern Facelift Techniques

Over time, environmental factors and natural aging processes impact facial appearance. Sun exposure, loss of elastic tissue, gravity, and daily stress contribute to visible signs of aging. Typical age-related changes include developing jowls, deep facial creases, and loose neck skin.

Modern Facelift Approach

Contemporary facelift techniques focus on addressing underlying facial structures beyond superficial skin manipulation. By repositioning deeper layers like fat and muscle, surgeons can achieve a more natural, youthful appearance without the unnatural "pulled" look of older methods.
