Toledo facelift plastic surgery for a younger, refreshed look.

A facelift smooths the loose skin on your face and neck, tightens underlying tissues and removes excess fat. As a result, your face will appear firmer and fresher. Typically the incision is hidden in the natural contour of your ear, and then extends around the earlobe and back into the hairline. In some cases, a neck lift, also called platysmalplasty, is used in combination with a facelift to reduce excess skin and fat around the neck, creating a younger looking profile. For men and women alike in Toledo, facelift plastic surgery can provide the refreshed, youthful appearance they desire. There are many variations to the facelift procedure; consult your physician about any questions you may have.

You may be a good candidate for a facelift, also called rhytidectomy, if you have any of the following types of conditions:

a deep line that runs from the corner of your nose to the corner of your mouth
a loss of a well-defined jawline
deep wrinkles in the cheeks and sagging skin near the cheekbones
loose skin, wrinkles or excess fatty tissue in the neck

Side Effects of Facelift Plastic Surgery

Risks of Facelift Plastic Surgery

Injury to nerves that control facial muscles or feeling (usually temporary but may be permanent) are possible. Infection, bleeding, poor healing, or excessive scarring are possible risks of facelift cosmetic surgery.
