Facelift

As we age, gravity, sun damage and the stresses of daily life all take their toll. Deep creases form between the nose and the upper lip, the jowl line slackens and folds and bands form around the neck.

The contemporary facelift reduces these visible signs of ageing, with far more natural looking results than earlier surgical techniques. There is now more emphasis on volume replacement and the direction of the lift (vector) rather than simply stretching sagging skin.

This new approach involves lifting and tightening the deeper layer of the skin and underlying facial muscles - allowing less skin to be resected. Skin is then repositioned and redraped and lost volume is restored, giving the face more youthful contours.

The result is a more beautiful and refreshed appearance without any tell tale signs of surgery.

Necklift

A sagging neck is often the first tell tale sign of ageing – especially in the harsh Australian environment. Generally, however, necklifts are most effective if performed in combination with a facelift. (See Facelift above)
