Rhytidectomy Facelift Surgery in Philadelphia

Rhytidectomy Facelift: Before and After

This kind 45 year-old female patient presented originally for chin liposuction consultation, bothered by the fullness under her chin. I instead recommended a definitive deep plane facelift and neck lift for the best facial and neck rejuvenation and contouring results. She already looks amazing at three months out in these before/after photos. Final outcome is seen at six to twelve months after surgery. We are so thrilled with her results.

“I use the most suitable cartilage grafting and suturing techniques to create noses that demonstrate a natural, aesthetically pleasing appearance on the outside and a durable airway on the inside for the long-term.”

– Dr. Tina Ho

WHAT IS RHYTIDECTOMY? 

Rhytidectomy, the technical term for the facelift procedure, is specifically crafted to surgically revitalize the midface, jawline, and neck regions. A youthful visage typically exhibits an inverted pyramid shape, characterized by well-defined cheeks and jawlines. However, the aging process, propelled by the relentless pull of gravity, gradually flips this pyramid, leading to the development of jowling (sagging of skin beneath the jawline). This transformation is accompanied by a reduction in jaw definition, increased laxity in neck skin, and the emergence of neck muscle banding. While non-surgical interventions like filler injections and threading can offer temporary relief by concealing or softening these issues, enduring and comprehensive correction of skin and soft tissue changes in the midface, lower face, and neck necessitates surgical intervention. 

The facelift procedure is meticulously designed to reposition and rejuvenate both the skin and deeper tissues of the face and neck, ultimately reinstating a more youthful appearance. Given the intricacies and potential risks associated with this surgery, it is imperative to entrust the procedure to a surgeon specializing in facial plastic surgery, with a profound understanding of facial anatomy. 

Dr. Ho, with expertise in aging face procedures, tailors each facelift to the unique anatomical findings and surgical objectives of every patient.
