Individuals with any of the typical signs of facial aging are usually good candidates for the procedure, especially when droopiness appears on the cheeks, in the jowls and along the jawline. Ideal candidates may have developed lines near the mouth and creases beneath the eyes. In addition to tightening skin and smoothing out wrinkles, facelift is a popular solution to areas of the face that have lost volume and appear sunken or hollow. Facelift also removes some types of fat, especially under the chin, and even has a positive effect on skin tone. In short, facelift is a great way to turn back the clock to a time when your skin was naturally vibrant, smooth and supple.
