Do visible signs of aging, like sagging skin, fine lines, and wrinkles, make you look and feel older than your age? Facelift is one of the proven solutions that prevent premature ageing and dullness.
Dr Vijay Langer has been performing facelifts in Delhi for more than three decades. As a former surgeon in the Indian Armed Forces, Dr Langer blends precision, his scientific research and knowledge with clinical expertise that delivers life-changing results. Whether it’s skin procedures or complex reconstructive cases, Dr Langer has a strong foundation in advanced aesthetic cosmetic procedures.
Facelift surgery, medically known as Rhytidectomy, helps prevent and reverse visible signs of ageing on the face. The surgery tightens facial tissues, repairs sagging skin and repositions facial contours. Sometimes, excess fat gets deposited in the skin, and it loses its elasticity and youthfulness, a facelift uplifts sagging skin.
A facelift can help address:
You may be a suitable candidate for facelift surgery if you:
Sagging skin
Wrinkles, folds and fine lines
Jawline is not prominent
Are in good overall health
Have realistic expectations from surgery
Different facelift techniques may be recommended after careful examination of skin condition and diagnosis of treatment.
Prominent facial aging is treated by tightening deeper tissues and removing excess skin.
If you have early signs of aging, a mini facelift is a minimally invasive procedure focusing mainly on the lower face and jawline.
Patients with loose skin and muscle banding in the neck area are recommended a neck lift along with facelift surgery.
Facelift surgery follows a carefully structured surgical process.
General anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation is given to the patients to ensure painless treatment.
Small incisions are usually placed around the hairline and near the ears, making scars discreet and less noticeable.
Facial tissues are lifted and repositioned to restore natural contours
Loose skin is carefully trimmed to create a smoother appearance.
The incisions are closed using fine sutures.
| Week 1 | Mild swelling & bruising |
|---|---|
| Week 2 | Removal of stitches and swelling reduces |
| Week 3-4 | Return to normal activities |
| 2-3 Months | Final facial contours are visible |
Immediately after surgery, many patients experience bruising, numbness or swelling, which may cause discomfort for a couple of days or not more than a week. Bandages are worn to collect any kind of drainage from incisions. Stitches are removed after 1-2 weeks, depending upon the signs of improvement and healing of skin.
Take rest with an elevated head position to avoid contact of skin with bacteria
Apply ice packs to cool down swelling
Keep the area of incision clean and dry
Avoid direct exposure to sun
