As the years go by, the visible signs of aging can start to accumulate, from wrinkles and fine lines, to drooping, jowly cheeks and sagging brows. These are caused by a range of factors, from accumulating fat deposits to sun damage, to skin's natural tendency to lose its elasticity over time. Facelift surgery, known technically as "rhytidectomy," can set back the clock of aging, making your face appear years younger.
A facelift literally "lifts" the skin of your face, smoothing out wrinkles and getting rid of drooping jowls. Dr. Chapin removes fat and tightens key facial muscles, rejuvenating your face both on the surface and below. Most patients choose to have a facelift between the ages of forty and sixty, though the procedure can benefit people as old as their eighties. Facelift surgery can also be performed in conjunction with other procedures such as brow lift and blepharoplasty eyelid surgery.
