Indications
Face Lift surgery is for those patients who desire a tightening of the facial skin and muscles. It helps to eliminate jowls and redefine the jaw line, tighten the skin of the neck, reduce deep wrinkles around the mouth and nose and generally produces a more youthful, refreshed appearance. This procedure is not intended to remove fine facial wrinkles nor does it address problems around the eyes. It is frequently combined with brow and eyelid lifts.

Goals
The goals of facelift surgery are to produce a refreshed more youthful look while avoiding a tight, "operated" look.
