Face and neck lift: Regain your youthful, smooth contours and facial definition
At Amwaj Polyclinic in Dubai, we offer advanced neck and facelift surgery for patients seeking to address visible signs of ageing while preserving their natural expression and identity. We utilise a careful blend of advanced techniques and a thorough understanding of facial structure to enhance youthful contours, ensuring a natural appearance without looking overdone. Facelift surgery is not about changing how you look. The goal is to refine contours, soften sagging areas, and bring back definition to the face and jawline in a way that still feels authentic to you.
What is a face or neck lift?
Our faces change gradually over time. Even with a healthy lifestyle and consistent skin care, natural ageing eventually affects skin elasticity, muscle tone, and facial structure.
You may start noticing changes in your appearance, such as sagging skin, deeper lines around your mouth, or a less-defined jawline. It’s completely natural to feel self-conscious about these changes, and it’s understandable if they affect how you feel when you look in the mirror.
These age-related changes result from the gradual loss of collagen and elasticity in the skin, leading to sagging and deeper facial folds. While these changes are a normal part of the ageing process, they can be addressed through various treatments to restore a more youthful appearance and boost confidence.
A facelift, or rhytidectomy, can repair age-related volume loss and signs of ageing, restoring your youthful beauty. The doctors use several techniques to reposition and trim excess tissue to achieve a more sculpted appearance. A neck lift, or lower rhytidectomy, addresses the neck, chin, and jawline. It involves redistributing fat and tissues in the target areas.
Who is a suitable candidate for a facelift?
A facelift focuses on structural signs of ageing rather than surface-level skin concerns. It may help improve:
- Sagging cheeks or mid-face descent
- Jowls along the jawline
- Deep nasolabial folds
- Loose skin on the lower face
- Loss of jawline and chin definition
- Neck skin laxity (when combined with a neck lift)
Facelift surgery is a personal decision. The best candidates are individuals who would like to address structural changes in the face while maintaining realistic expectations. It will also surprise you that there is no set age for a facelift. At our office, we treat patients aged 50 and older, as well as younger patients seeking facial lifts as a preventive measure against ageing. A consultation with our plastic surgeons will help determine whether a neck or facelift is appropriate for you.
What are the types of facelift techniques?
Not all facelifts are created equal. Depending on the aesthetic needs and skin condition, your facelift may involve:
- Full (traditional) facelift: Addresses more advanced ageing by lifting the midface, lower face, jawline, and sometimes, the neck.
- SMAS facelift: It addresses the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) for stronger, longer-lasting results.
- Deep plane facelift: It releases deeper facial ligaments, allowing the cheeks and facial folds to reposition naturally without tension on the skin.
- Mini facelift: A more limited procedure designed for early signs of ageing, focusing mainly on mild jawline laxity.
- Facelift with neck lift: Your plastic surgeon combines facial rejuvenation with tightening of neck muscles and skin to create a balanced lower face and neck contour.
Whether you want a subtle upgrade or a dramatic transformation, our plastic surgeons are up for the task. We consider your goals and unique anatomy to administer facelifts that transform you into your best self.
