I would like to get a facelift for my 50th birthday

Question:

I would like to get a facelift for my 50th birthday! Can I get my whole face done at one time, or does the rhytidectomy just correct one or two areas at a time, like chin and cheeks or eyes and forehead?

Answer:

A facelift will be a great birthday gift to yourself! A facelift will only improve the areas of your face that include the neck, jowls, and portions of the cheeks. If you have concerns with the appearance of your eyes and brows, then you will need these areas operated on, too. Surgery of your eyelids and brows can be performed at the same time as your rhytidectomy.
