Face-lift

As you age, features develop on your face due to the effects of ageing, the sun, smoking, and even losing weight. A face-lift will not delay the ageing process, but it can make you look younger while the natural ageing process continues. Various parts of the face or neck may benefit from surgery. Other surgical procedures, such as a blephroplasty (eyelid correction), are often carried out at the same time as a face-lift. The treatment is carried out under general anaesthetic with a two-night stay in hospital. Two weeks off work are usually recommended.
