Achieve a youthful, rejuvenated look with a facelift at Daniels Group Plastic Surgery in Summit, NJ. Tighten skin, smooth wrinkles, and restore facial contours for a refreshed appearance.
A facelift, also known as a rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure designed to lift and tighten sagging skin, smooth deep wrinkles, and restore youthful facial contours. As we age, the skin loses elasticity, leading to sagging around the cheeks, jawline, and neck. A facelift can reverse these signs of aging by repositioning the skin, tightening underlying tissues, and removing excess skin.
During the procedure, Dr. Daniels will make discreet incisions along the hairline, around the ears, and sometimes under the chin to lift and tighten the skin. Liposuction or other procedures may be performed to enhance results. The surgery typically takes 3-4 hours and is performed under general anesthesia.
