Face Lift Surgery
Friday, August 28th, 2009We are a nation obsessed with beauty and youth and we put much value and emphasis on our looks. This could be why cosmetic face surgery is such a popular procedure in our culture. Its not just for the rich and famous anymore.
Cosmetic facelift surgery (also called Rhytidectomy) is intended to help remove the signs of aging in both the neck and face. Specifically sagging and creases get smoothed, fatty deposits are removed (like jowls), double chins get tucked, eyelids may be tightened, and so forth.
Its important to understand that a face lift surgery will only help to make you look more alert , refreshed/rested and maybe a bit younger. A facelift surgery wont dramatically change your appearance or stop you from aging. It is very important that you discuss your expectations with your surgeon before undergoing any surgery.
All surgery has some risks and you should be aware of them before hand. Scarring, infections, nerve damage, and swelling are possible side effects of a face lift. Also, un-symmetrical facial features are possible.
Costs of Face Lift: Cosmetic facelift surgery costs vary from doctor to doctor and state to state. Fees usually run between $7,000 - $18,000 and this usually includes the surgeons fees, anesthesia fee, and facility/hospital fee. The cost also depends on how extensive your surgery is. Some people combine other face enhancement procedures like a nose job.
