Introduction
A facelift (rhytidectomy) is a highly effective facial rejuvenation surgery that lifts sagging skin, tightens underlying muscles, and restores a smoother, younger-looking contour to the face and neck.
Whether you want to refresh your jawline, eliminate jowls, or reverse signs of aging, a facelift provides long-lasting, natural results.
