Facial surgery

Face and neck lift

Rhytidoplasty

Restoring firmness to the face without losing its own features. That is the guiding criterion: the result should show as freshness, not as surgery.

What it involves

The technique repositions the facial tissues that have descended over time and restores definition to the facial contour and the neck. It does not stretch the skin: it repositions the structure that supports it, so the patient’s own features are preserved.

Depending on each patient’s anatomy and goal, a deep plane facelift or an endoscopic temporal lift is indicated.

Recovery

The post-operative period is well tolerated and allows activity to be resumed within a few days. During the first weeks, physical exertion and sun exposure should be avoided.

Where it is performed

Consultations are available at any of the clinics, by scheduled appointment, and by video call.

Frequently asked questions

Can a facelift be combined with blepharoplasty?

In many cases yes. Combining depends on total operating time, the patient's health and anaesthetic safety, and is assessed during the consultation.
