Which facelift method is the right one for you?

In the first consultation we analyse several factors: skin thickness and elasticity, bone structure, the shift of volume in the face, patterns of expression, skin laxity on the neck — and we study photographs from your youth in order to reconstruct the vectors of the natural descent.

Only on this basis do we recommend a particular technique. In most cases that is the deep plane facelift — but for some anatomies other methods are better suited. We take the time for an honest, individual recommendation.

Many people have well-founded reservations about facial surgery, because there are repeated examples of unnatural, mask-like results. The most common causes are skin that is pulled too tight, insufficient tightening of the deep connective tissue, a wrong direction of pull, incorrectly placed scars, failing to correct age-related volume loss, and lifting the face in isolation without considering neck and eyelids.

These mistakes leave the typical stigmata of a poor facelift: unnatural features, mouth corners drawn sideways, earlobes pulled downwards, an unnatural hairline, visible scars. All of this is avoidable with careful planning and the right surgical technique — and that is precisely the difference that years of specialisation make.
