Face Lift / Neck Lift Surgery in Bangalore

A full or complete facelift surgery in Bangalore is a comprehensive procedure that focuses on improving the skin and tissues of the lower two-thirds of the face. This includes the area from the ears, across the cheeks, and down to the jaw line. The procedure involves several key steps:

1. Removing excess fat
2. Tightening underlying muscles
3. Re-draping the skin

By addressing these multiple layers, a face lift can provide a more natural and long-lasting result compared to non-surgical alternatives.

At Skin and Recon, we stand apart in providing exceptional care for face lift and neck lift procedures. Here’s why:

Patient comfort and safety are paramount during a face lift procedure. Generally, there are two main anesthesia options:

1. General anesthesia: This is the most common choice, allowing the patient to sleep through the entire procedure.
2. Sedation with local anesthesia: Some patients may opt for this approach, which involves a combination of medications to induce a state of relaxation along with localized numbing of the surgical area.

The choice of anesthesia will be discussed and decided upon during your consultation, taking into account your preferences, medical history, and the surgeon’s recommendation.

As with any surgical procedure, it’s important to be aware of potential side effects and risks associated with face lift surgery. While complications are rare when performed by a skilled and experienced surgeon, patients should be informed of the following:

Possible Side Effects:

• Temporary bruising and swelling
• Numbness and tenderness of the skin
• A tight feeling in the face and neck
• Dry skin
• For men, there may be a permanent need to shave behind the ears due to the repositioning of beard-growing skin

The recovery process following a face lift is an important aspect of achieving optimal results. Here’s what you can expect:

• Return to work: Most patients can return to work after 10 to 14 days.
• Resuming strenuous activity: More vigorous activities can typically be resumed after two weeks or more, as advised by your surgeon.
• Bruising: You can expect bruising to begin fading after 7 to 10 days.
• Sun protection: Limiting sun exposure is crucial for several months after surgery. The use of a broad-spectrum sunblock that provides both UVA and UVB protection is strongly recommended to protect your healing skin and maintain your results.
