Facelift

You would like to read up on the technique of plastic surgery face lifting.
This information should provide you with a good overview and assist you in your decision.
It does not replace a comprehensive personal consultation with doctor siegl, who would be pleased to discuss any specific problems with you at any time.
The aim of the operation is to remove excess skin, tighten soft tissue and raise sagging muscles in the face and neck area.
The incision is carried out within the hair-covered temporal region behind and in front of the ear. The skin is lifted carefully. Additional fat is removed by liposuction.
If there are only partial areas affected by the sagging, these parts can be reshaped by localised lifting operations like a temporal lift, cheek lift, neck lift or S-lift.
The operation is usually carried out under local or general anaesthetic.
As with all operations, complications can not be completely ruled out; in the individual case they are not always predictable.
A lifting operation can have the effect of making you look many years
younger. The final results can be viewed after 2-3 months.

Clinic: 2 days (24 hours)
