Face Lift (Rhytidectomy)

Face lift surgery is rejuvenating the facial appearance by lifting sagging skin, tightening underlying tissues, and smoothing deep wrinkles. It is targeting mid and lower face areas including jowls, cheeks, and nasolabial folds to restore youthful contours. This procedure is creating a natural, harmonious facial appearance while boosting self-confidence.
