MMG FACIAL PLASTIC SURGERY
Face Lift

Are you looking for a facelift in Mallorca? Facial rejuvenation is one of the most frequent consultations in our clinic. The passage of time affects us all to a greater or lesser extent. In a recent publication it becomes evident that as you get older, your head gets wider, your forehead flattens, your eyes get smaller. In addition to this, as already known, the facial bone structure decreases, the subcutaneous tissue becomes thinner, facial fat decreases and skin atrophy and sagging occur.

In recent years, regenerative medicine for skin maintenance has gained ground. This means that we can now delay cervicofacial aging and thus the need for treatments such as facelifts.

However, when the time comes, medical treatments have limitations and are not able to produce the desired changes. It is at this point that the facelift and neck lift have their role to play.

If you also need to know the price of a facelift and you need financing, we will make a simulation immediately after the consultation.

FACIAL LIFTING

Description

A facelift is a surgical procedure to improve the visible signs of aging of the face and neck. As the individual ages, the skin and muscles of the facial region begin to lose tone. A facelift cannot stop the aging process, but it can improve the most visible signs of aging by tightening the deeper structures, reshaping the skin of the face and neck, and removing selected areas of fat.

A facelift can be performed alone or in conjunction with other procedures, such as a brow lift, liposuction, eyelid surgery, or nasal surgery.

FACIAL LIFTING
Facelift Modalities

The facelift is individualized for each patient. The best candidate for a facelift is one whose face and neck have begun to relax, but whose skin has elasticity and whose bone structure is well defined.

There are several facelift modalities depending on the needs of each patient.

Lifting Anterior

If, on the other hand, the patient wishes a facial rejuvenation but not so intense in the neck, we opt for an anterior facelift.

This facelift improves the position of the cheeks, reduces nasolabial folds, improves the jawline and tightens the skin of the neck.

Face & NeckLift

If the patient desires maximum neck correction, we opt for a cervicofacial (anteroposterior) facelift.
Through this operation, the tissues of the face and neck are treated with special intensity.

Face & Necklift

De Tercio medio / Pómulos

It produces an elevation effect of the cheekbones, eliminating the oblique line that usually appears on the cheeks as a sign of aging in younger patients, as well as a disappearance of the nasolabial folds and an increase in the volume of the cheekbones.

Cheekbones

Brow Lift

The periocular region is one of the areas where aging is most noticeable.
Drooping eyebrows can obscure the upper part of the eye as well as hinder vision and give a saddened appearance.

Brow Lift

Lifting de tercio medio/Pómulos

This facelift produces an elevation effect of the cheekbones, eliminating the oblique line that usually appears on the cheeks as an initial sign of aging in younger patients, as well as a disappearance of the nasolabial folds and an increase in the volume of the cheekbones.

It is a great unknown since there are few plastic surgeons specialized in this procedure. Cheek elevation is used as an alternative to cheek or nasolabial fold fillers.

The middle third lift or cheek lift produces:

  • Cheekbone lifting effect by eliminating the oblique line (which usually appears on the cheeks as an initial sign of aging in younger patients).
  • Attenuation of wrinkles in the nasolabial folds
  • Cheekbone volume increase.

Cheek augmentation in this case occurs in a more uniform and natural way since it is the cheekbones themselves that are returned to a position they occupied years ago.
In addition, it is performed without visible scars and does not require skin removal. The results are permanent.

The ultimate alternative to fillers

It is a very good option for those patients who are fed up with fillers and want a more effective and long-lasting treatment.

  • If you are tired of facial fillers or if they give you an undesired effect because they are artificial or insufficient, cheek lifting by this method can be a good alternative.

It is performed under general anesthesia and the procedure lasts 45 minutes, without admission. It does not usually produce large bruises, although the cheeks may be edematous for a few days, which is usually pleasing due to the volume effect it produces until it settles down definitively.

In those cases in which the volume of the cheekbones is scarce, a lipofilling of the cheeks can be performed with a fat graft of the patient’s own fat.

Interventions are performed under general anesthesia, although sometimes we do it under local anesthesia and sedation, and we recommend one night of hospitalization. Paradoxically, the postoperative period is not painful although it produces some discomfort.

Tras la intervención se aplica una mentonera que se debe llevar durante 10 días.
The stitches are removed 10 days after surgery.

Brow Lift

The periocular region is one of the areas where aging and drooping eyebrows are most noticeable. Excess skin on the upper part of the eye can hinder vision and provide a saddened image.

It is important to assess eyebrow drooping before performing an upper eyelid rejuvenation procedure(upper blepharoplasty), as drooping of the upper eyelid can sometimes be due to drooping of the eyebrow.

The treatment of eyebrow drooping is surgical, although in mild cases it can be treated with botulinum toxin.

The procedure can be performed in several ways depending on the circumstances of each patient.

  • In men of a certain age, it may be indicated to make an incision just at the upper margin of the eyebrow to be used as an elevation point.
  • In younger patients, an endoscopic technique can be used whereby an incision is made inside the scalp and anchor stitches are launched inside the skin up to the eyebrow.

The type of anesthesia used may be local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia depending on the procedure and the characteristics of each patient. The procedure may be done on an outpatient basis or require an overnight hospital stay. Stitches are usually removed 10 days after surgery.

Like any other procedure, it can be subject to complications both of the scar and the adjacent tissues. With the passage of time the situation of the eyebrows may fall again.

There is no certain age to undergo a brow lift and it is the condition of each person that dictates the moment in which an intervention of this nature could be performed.

In the first few days you can expect some slight bruising that could be seen in the eye area. It is usually resolved within 10 days.

If desired, we have a specific laser to accelerate the resorption of hematomas.

Upper Lip Lift

This is a procedure performed under local anesthesia in which a portion of skin is removed just below the nose and the upper lip is elevated. The incision is partially hidden inside the nostrils and in the alar folds. The expected result is a shortening of the philtrum region and an eversion of the upper lip vermilion giving a fuller appearance. This change in position of the upper lip provides a more youthful appearance. The scar fades with the passage of time.

Facial aging is one of the frequent causes in our practice. Often overlooked is the fact that the upper lip is an important part of the aging facial appearance.

As we age, the subcutaneous tissue becomes thinner, i.e., facial fat decreases and skin atrophy with sagging occurs.

This impacts the upper lip in two ways:

  • Elongating the distance between the nose and the start of the vermilion
  • Thinning the upper lip vermilion.

In some cases, this elongation and thinning appears at middle age due to either premature aging or a constitutional factor.

This affects women to a greater degree than men, certainly due to the greater fragility of female tissues.

There is no certain age to undergo an upper lip lift, but rather it is the condition of each person that dictates the time at which an intervention of this nature could be performed.
