Signs of aging can be visible in a person’s face due to gravity , exposure to sunlight and stresses of daily life , loss of skin elasticity and tissue strength,formation of deep crease between the nose and mouth , the jawline growing slack and ‘jowly’. A facelift technically known as rhytidectomy can make these signs vanish by removing excess fat, tightening underlying muscles , and repositioning the skin of the face and neck. It can be done alone, or in conjunction with other procedures such as an eyelid surgery, nose reshaping or forehead lift.
