Plastic surgery is often a personal choice, but people have several questions in their minds when it comes to a facelift. We get a lot of requests from our patients who want to get done their facial lifting and neck lifting at our Toronto clinic. They are looking for younger versions of themselves, and want to reduce wrinkles and add facial volume. They still want a soft look that doesn’t look overdone.
As the Facelift Toronto is an advanced procedure, patients have to do a lot of research before their consultations. Many queries are often asked on our websites. So, we decided to answer the most common questions on a facelift, here they are:
How the facelift is performed?
Usually in a facelift procedure, tightening and repositioning facial tissues and their underlying muscles are done. To begin with, the doctor incises around the ears and just behind the hairline. These points are then used to address the deeper face layer called the SMAS. The treatment produces a younger, oval-shaped face by raising tissues and removing extra skin.
How much facial lifting is painful?
Like any procedure, a slight amount of pain is felt in facelift recovery. Tightness, itching, bruising, and swelling are usually experienced for a few days after the procedure. Your doctor can recommend medicine for pain and give you a topical ointment to keep your incisions clean and comfortable. After around two weeks most patients can return to their normal activities.
When do the scars of facelift start fading?
Around 6 months after surgery, Facelift Scars almost disappear. Up to one year after the procedure, the scars recover completely. However, most facelift incisions are made in positions that do not visible at first appearance. To conceal your scars, you have to avoid styling your hair differently or wearing extreme make up.
Which age is the best for getting a facelift?
Our facelift patients are mainly women and men, although this is not a rigid rule that they come in their late 40s or 50s. In deciding whether you are a good candidate for a facelift, genesis, skin well-being, and other considerations play an important role. If you suffer from severe skin sagging and lack of facial volume, you can get a facelift done regardless of whatever age you are at.
Before choosing cosmetic surgery in Toronto, the best way is to do a lot of research.
