What Is A Facelift?
The facelift is one of the most well-known and celebrated cosmetic surgeries on the market. This procedure addresses distinct areas of the face to treat drooping skin and lines to produce a younger-looking, taut appearance. At Chirag Mehta MD Plastic Surgery, we can customize your facelift treatment to address your unique concerns, whether you want to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, gift lift to the cheeks and mid-face, or firm up sagging skin around the jowls, mouth, and neck for an overall younger aesthetic. The technique we use will depend on your goals, the health and condition of your skin, how much sagging you’re dealing with, age, lifestyle, and a range of other factors. Some individuals could benefit from a full facelift while a mid-facelift or mini facelift may be better for others. Whatever your goals are, our aim is to produce a look that is smoother and refreshed.

How Do You Perform Facelift Surgery?
There are several different approaches Dr. Mehta could take for your facelift, depending on your goals. Some facelifts rejuvenate the upper portion of the face while others focus on the lower two-thirds. In addition, some techniques are slightly more invasive and intricate than others. It is also common for some men and women to have a brow lift or lip lift to complement and enhance their outcomes. A few of the more known facelift techniques include the mini facelift, lower facelift, and mid-facelift, all of which address different areas of the face. There is also the full facelift, which pulls the entire face up for a softer, smoother appearance. While scarring is a possibility with any surgery, we make every effort to ensure incisions are strategically located to minimize any visible scars after your treatment. During your consultation at our Sherman, TX plastic surgery office, Dr. Mehta will recommend which approach is right for you and explain what you can expect in terms of results and scarring.
