Facelift Surgery Sydney
About the treatment
Our unique features and facial definition often determine how we feel about ourselves and how we present ourselves to the world.
However, as we age, the skeletal framework of the face shrinks, and facial fat diminishes, often resulting in a droopy and deflated appearance. Combine this with the deterioration of skin elasticity and muscle tone; these effects usually lead to the formation of skin folds, creases and jowls. The loss of definition around the jawline also causes the lower face to sag and become heavy, leading to a prematurely aged or worn appearance.
WHAT IS A FACELIFT?
The contemporary facelift is a highly advanced and complex surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate the face completely. Unlike the “traditional” facelift of old, which is often associated with a tightened or taut look, Dr Liew’s facelift surgery focuses on creating a natural, soft and harmonious profile. Instead of merely stretching or pulling at loose skin, Dr Liew focuses on repositioning the skin and tissue, replacing lost volume, and lifting the skin in the right direction to enhance your features and recapture your natural beauty.
A WORD FROM DR. LIEW
“A facelift should never pull the skin causing a taught and tight appearance, but rather softly reposition the tissue to where it should be. This creates a more beautiful and harmonious version of you. As a Specialist Plastic Surgeon, my technique of choice is always a deep plane facelift to ensure the most natural and longer lasting result. People should notice you from a distance. They should wonder why you look so good. But they should never be able to tell that you have had anything done” — Dr Steven Liew.’
The face is intrinsic to our identity; its unique fabric determines how we express ourselves and how the world perceives us.

Results
Facelift surgery is most suitable for men and women who have experienced a significant loss of shape and volume as a result of the ageing process. The procedure is commonly performed for women in their late 40s and over who have experienced a significant loss of volume, bone density and skin elasticity, resulting in the formation of jowls, skin folds and a sagging jawline that altogether deflates the face.

What to expect from a Facelift
During your in-depth consultation, Dr Liew carefully analyses your facial structure to determine the direction of lifting required to produce your desired look. Using advanced methods and the highest quality equipment, Dr Liew repositions and re-drapes underlying muscles and the skin and then combines this with the restoration of volume. He uses fat grafting techniques to remove small amounts of fat from other body areas (most commonly the abdomen) before processing and strategically injecting the purified fat cells into the face to replace the volume that has diminished over time. Dr Liew’s approach creates symmetrical and harmonious contours that tone and holistically redefine the face.
