Facial Surgeries, Cheshire

Your face is the window to the world and we live in a young world where people are fitter and healthier to an older age. As a generation we have all seen too much sunshine which ages the skin. Some of us may have been smokers which increases those problems.

Whilst feeling young and fit we may not always look so and more patients are considering facial rejuvenation procedures. With better understanding of anatomy and the ageing process, treatments now enhance your appearance, to leave natural, long lasting results to make you look good for where you are in life.

Understanding The Journey

Our facelift surgeries are conducted under general anaesthesia, with most patients spending one night in our state-of-the-art facilities. The procedure involves lifting and repositioning the skin of the cheeks and neck, tightening the deep layers and carefully removing excess skin. Scars, strategically placed to minimise impact, run down from the temple, in or at the front edge of the hairline, around the ear, and back into the hairline behind the ear. The length of the scar is determined by the amount of tissue removed. Modern facelifting emphasises lifting the deeper layers for a natural outcome with better scarring. Sometimes an incision is required underneath the chin to tighten the muscles at the front of the neck.

Post-surgery, patients are nursed upright overnight to minimise swelling. Drains may be placed around the ear to reduce the chance of hematomas. Simple analgesia is usually sufficient for pain management. Most patients can return home the morning after surgery, with stitches in front of the ear removed after 5 days, and sutures and clips behind the ear removed 5-7 days later. Swelling typically lasts around 5-6 days, with bruising resolving within 14 days. Makeup can often conceal bruising after 10-14 days, and most patients resume normal activities within 3 weeks. However, neck and cheek tissues may feel stiff for some weeks, with numbness persisting for a number of months. Impact exercise is best avoided for 4-5 weeks.

Complications are uncommon, with infection being rare. Haematomas are unusual and may require drainage. Avoiding aspirin in the month before surgery is important to reduce the risk of bleeding. Scars typically settle well, and the use of Solution for Scars, initiated a week before surgery, has been shown to improve scar outcomes. Wound healing problems are uncommon with modern facelifting techniques, and the risk of damaging facial nerve branches is very rare. Some laxity may redevelop in the neck skin as neck movements return. Surgery effectively removes the excess.
