Overview

Facelift procedures involves tightening and repositioning of the skin and the deeper tissues in the ‘SMAS layer’. The SMAS layer is deep tissue comprising of a layer of muscle that envelopes around the lower face and neck. This two layered approach creates a more natural effect and prolongs the effectiveness of the facelift.

Facelift procedures are tailored to patients’ individual requirements. Other procedures may also be required or added to supplement these lifts (i.e. liposuction and tightening of the muscles under the chin; or possibly non-surgical skin resurfacing with a chemical peel).

We place emphasis on achieving natural results that preserve and enhance the natural contours of your face. Below are the most common facial rejuvenation procedures he undertakes:
