What Is a Facelift in Atlanta?

A facelift, also known as a rhytidectomy, revitalizes your appearance by removing baggy skin and tightening the muscles of your face and neck. This surgery diminishes wrinkles and eliminates sagging caused by age, sun exposure, and simple genetics. With a facelift, many patients feel like they look 10 to 15 years younger.

Are there Different Types of Face Lifts?

At Radiance Aesthetic Surgery & Wellness Spa, Dr. C. Carson Huynh is proud to be able to offer both a deep plane face lift and a mini lift option, depending on each individual patient’s need. In general, individuals in their late forties to fifties with moderate to advanced facial aging are the best candidates for a deep plane face lift. Those who have mild to moderate facial aging changes in their early forties may be candidates for a mini face lift. A thorough examination and consultation with Dr. Huynh will help you decide which treatment option is best for you.

Intravenous sedation or general anesthesia is most commonly used for maximal patient comfort and safety.

Face lift incisions are hidden inside the hairline at the temple, in front of the ear, then around the earlobe and behind the ear, ending at the scalp area. Sagging muscles and connective tissues are repositioned to the natural youthful state, and excess skin is removed. In some cases, fatty deposits are removed from beneath the chin and neck. Because the deep plane multivector technique repositions the underlying connective tissue (SMAS) layer, the skin flap can be passively repositioned and to avoid the unnatural, wind-tunnel look often associated with conventional face lifts. Finally, incisions are closed meticulously with very fine sutures. Once final healing is completed, typically around six months, the incisions are hardly noticeable.
