Facelift

A facelift, also known as a rhytidectomy or meloplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that improves the appearance of the face and neck by tightening the skin and muscles, and removing excess fat

The surgeon makes incisions in the hairline, in front of and behind the ears, and sometimes under the chin. They then separate the skin from the underlying fat and muscle, remove excess fat, and pull the remaining skin back into place. The skin is then stitched or taped closed.
