Facial skin, like the skin of the rest of the body, is subject to natural aging processes. It becomes thinner with age, produces less elastane and collagen, is more sensitive to UV rays and takes longer to renew itself. This is accompanied by skin as well as muscle sagging in the face.
A facelift can eliminate the effects of these aging processes by completely or partially tightening the skin of the face and neck and strengthening the facial muscles.
The aim of a facelift should be to make the face a mirror of inner youth and mature beauty, to make it look younger without taking away the individual facial expression.
