Facelift Surgery In Pune

Types of Facelift Procedures

1. Traditional Facelift

This procedure is for those with significant sagging and deep wrinkles. Our surgeons make incisions along the hairline, reposition the skin, and tighten the muscles. The excess skin is removed to create a youthful, smooth contour. This method provides the most dramatic and long-lasting results.

2. Mini Facelift

This option is ideal for patients with mild skin laxity. Our surgeons make smaller incisions near the ears and tighten the lower face. This results in a refreshed look with less recovery time. The mini facelift is a great choice for younger patients or those who want a subtle enhancement.

3. Deep Plane Facelift

This technique lifts both the skin and deeper facial muscles. Our surgeons reposition tissues to correct severe sagging. The deep plane facelift delivers longer-lasting and more dramatic results. It is particularly effective for correcting nasolabial folds and drooping cheeks.

4. Mid-Facelift

This procedure targets the cheeks and lower eyelids. Our surgeons lift the mid-face tissues to restore volume and smoothen nasolabial folds. A mid-facelift enhances the area around the eyes and cheekbones for a more youthful look.

5. Neck Lift with Facelift

Aging affects both the face and neck. Our surgeons perform a combined procedure to tighten the jawline and remove excess skin from the neck. This enhances overall facial harmony. Patients with sagging skin, double chin, or vertical banding on the neck benefit greatly from this approach.

6. SMAS Facelift

The SMAS facelift tightens both the skin and the deeper tissue layers. Our surgeons adjust the Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System (SMAS) for a natural-looking, firm result. This technique creates a more youthful appearance while preserving facial expressions.

Who is the Right Candidate?

Facelift surgery is suitable for individuals who:

• Have sagging skin on the face and neck. 
• Notice deep folds and wrinkles that affect their appearance. 
• Want to restore a youthful, firm facial contour. 
• Are in good health and have realistic expectations.
• Maintain a stable weight and follow a healthy lifestyle. 
• Want to improve their self-confidence and overall appearance.

Patients with certain medical conditions may need further evaluation before undergoing the procedure. Our surgeons assess each case to determine the best approach and ensure safety.

Recovery Timeline

• Week 1: Swelling and bruising subside; patients must follow post-op care guidelines. Most patients experience tightness and mild discomfort during this time.
• Week 2: Stitches are removed; mild tightness remains but improves daily. Patients can resume non-strenuous activities.
• Week 4: Patients can resume most daily activities with proper care. Swelling reduces significantly.
• Month 3: Final results become more visible; skin appears firmer and smoother. The face settles into its natural, youthful contour.
• Month 6: Full healing is achieved, and the face looks completely natural. Any remaining tightness fades, revealing a rejuvenated appearance.

Following aftercare instructions ensures optimal healing and long-lasting results.
