Considering a face lift?

The appearance of our face and how it ages plays a large role in how we feel about ourselves and how others see us. As the skin loses its elasticity and firmness, sagging tissue and wrinkles can appear in the midface, jaw line, and neck. When this happens, it can make your face always look tired sad, or even angry. When really you may feel happy and enthusiastic inside, but thats not what your face expresses. There are many different factors which contribute to the visible signs of aging of your face , including heredity, gravity, environmental conditions, and stress.

You may be a good candidate for a *facelift* and/or a mid *facelift* if any of these conditions are bothering you. The *facelift* corrects sagging facial skin and muscles and removes excess fat in order to restore a more youthful, firmer look and a more rested and vibrant appearance.

Is A Facelift Right For You?

You may be a good candidate for a *facelift* if you are an adult man or woman who is experiencing any of the following:

• Feelings that the outward appearance of your face does not reflect your inner or physical youth or vitality.
• A desire to fix the signs of aging appearing in your face and neck.
• The presence of a deep crease beneath the lower eyelid or a crease between the nose and mouth resulting from sagging of the mid face.
• The presence of jowls resulting from a loss of muscle tone in the lower face.
• The presence of a double chin or 'turkey neck' resulting from loose skin or excess fatty deposits beneath the chin.

You may also be a candidate for mid facelift if you have mild to moderate loss of skin elasticity and muscle tone of the face and neck. If you have jowls and deep creased between the base of the nose and corners of the mouth, or if you have developed facial and neck wrinkles. Dr. Benjamin may reccommend a full face lift if you feel the lack of a youthful chin and neck contours, or if you believe you have a tired or "sad" facial appearance.
