Facelift Surgery
(Rhytidectomy)

Rhytidectomy, more commonly known as a facelift, is without a doubt the most common procedure in Plastic Surgery. The facial expressions that give your face character can also leave deep wrinkles and lines. Sun damage, smoking, cold winters, tension, alcohol and the inevitable aging process all change the shape and characteristics of your face.

With today's new surgical techniques and advancements, facelifts now last longer than before and have a more natural-looking outcome. A facelift improves sagging facial skin and removes jowls and loose neck skin. It keeps you looking as good as you can, for as long as you can.

Facelift Surgery Questions to ask your Cosmetic Plastic Surgeon

Is Facelift Surgery (Rhytidectomy) right for me?

With age, the muscles of your face loosen and your skin looses some of its elasticity - the result - lines and folds. The procedure is designed to produce smoother and tighter facial skin by lifting and tightening the facial tissues and sometimes the underlying muscle. A face lift can transform your appearance and turn back the clock to restore your youthful appearance reducing saggy skin and minimize the appearance of wrinkles.

Dr. Bounds' specialized experience and expertise can provide the results you desire. Call us at (757)-496-7373 to schedule a consultation and find out if this procedure is right for you.

The Facelift Surgery Procedure

A facelift is a surgical procedure - non-surgical treatments will not provide the same results. Facelift surgery is a very personal choice and you should choose to have it done for yourself, not to fulfill someone else’s idea of what your ideal appearance should be.

Typically, you should be able to return to work within ten days to two weeks, depending on the level of activity required for your job. Aerobic activities, alcohol, steam baths and saunas may be restricted for several months. Dr. Bounds staff will instruct you, at your follow-up appointment, on the effective use of camouflage makeup.
