The Truth About Facelifts: Achieving a Natural Look
Despite its popularity, facelift surgery remains a misunderstood procedure. One of the biggest reasons for this misconception is the fear that the result will look unnatural. However, the reality is that a skilled surgeon can achieve a natural look that enhances your features without altering your overall appearance.
Unfortunately, the media has perpetuated the idea that facelifts only result in the dreaded “overdone” look. This portrayal has made it difficult for patients to understand the potential for natural-looking results. However, with advancements in surgical techniques, a natural-looking facelift is now more achievable than ever before.
At Centre for Surgery, we are passionate about creating natural-looking results that enhance our patients’ features. Our experienced surgeons take pride in their ability to customise each procedure to fit the patient’s individual needs and aesthetic goals.
If you’re considering a facelift, rest assured that a natural-looking result is possible. By choosing a skilled and experienced surgeon, and by communicating your goals clearly, you can achieve a result that makes you feel confident and beautiful.
Recent patient experience
It’s always gratifying for us as plastic surgeons when our patients are overjoyed with their results, especially when it comes to a procedure as significant as a facelift. We recently had the pleasure of working with a patient who was so thrilled with her transformation that she shared pictures with us just four weeks after her surgery.
It’s a testament to the skill of our surgeons and the care that we take to achieve the most natural-looking results possible. We understand that the idea of a facelift can be daunting, especially when it comes to concerns about looking “overdone.” But with the right technique and attention to detail, a facelift can produce a subtle, refreshed look that leaves patients feeling confident and rejuvenated.
Our patient’s photos speak for themselves, showing a beautifully natural result that enhances her features without looking unnatural or artificial. We’re thrilled to have been able to help her achieve her aesthetic goals and look forward to continuing to provide top-notch care to all of our patients.
The art of a successful facelift is a combination of technique and an individualised approach for each patient. This recent facelift patient is a prime example of how we tailor each surgery to achieve the best possible result for the individual.
The primary goal for this patient was to address her lower face and neck concerns, so we performed a lower facelift and neck lift. During the procedure, we tightened the muscles and skin to provide a smoother neck and jawline, which also improved the tightness of the facial skin.
But we didn’t stop there. To enhance the result and address the loss of volume that often comes with ageing, we performed facial fat grafting by using a small amount of fat from her abdominal area and injected it into her facial skin. This step not only rejuvenated the quality of the skin but also added volume to her central face, which filled out any remaining looseness in that area. Additionally, we used fat to fill the tear trough area, creating a more rested and refreshed appearance to the eyes.
It’s important to note that the fat transfer process is permanent, which means that the improvements she sees will be long-lasting. While the ageing process will continue, these enhancements will be the foundation of her new look, and she will always look more in line with her original goal when she first came to see us.
At Centre for Surgery in London we believe in achieving the most natural look possible, and this patient’s result is a testament to that philosophy. We take pride in our individualised approach and technique to provide the best possible outcome for each of our patients.
