Insight
What is a Facelift?
A facelift consultation, also known as rhytidectomy consultation, helps you understand options to reposition and support deeper facial tissues while addressing excess skin and visible sagging.
Modern facelift guidance focuses not only on surface tightening but also on deeper facial support layers to encourage longer-lasting and natural-looking improvement.
A facelift consultation may help address:
- Sagging cheeks
- Deep nasolabial folds
- Jowls along the jawline
- Loose skin in the lower face
- Loss of facial definition
It does not stop aging, but it can support a more structured and balanced facial contour.
Suitability
Who is a Good Candidate for a Facelift?
You may be a suitable candidate for a facelift consultation if:
- You have visible facial sagging
- Your jawline has lost definition
- You are physically healthy
- You do not smoke or are willing to pause smoking before your visit
- You have realistic expectations
During consultation, Dr. Govind Gupta evaluates skin elasticity, bone structure, facial fat distribution, and overall health before recommending whether a facelift aligns with your goals.
Technique
Types of Facelift
A facelift can be customized depending on the degree of aging and individual goals:
- Mini Facelift
Targets early signs of sagging with smaller entry points and shorter recovery expectations. - Full Facelift
Addresses moderate to advanced aging of the mid and lower face. - SMAS Facelift
Guidance focused on deeper tissue support for longer-lasting structural improvement. - Deep Plane Facelift
Advanced planning option that addresses deeper facial structures for more significant correction.
In some cases, a facelift may be discussed alongside neck lift, eyelid guidance, or fat grafting for more comprehensive facial refreshment.
