Over time, the long-term effects of gravity,
exposure to sun, dry air, and general
stress takes its toll on an individual's
Facelift
Surgery Thailand and neckline. Jowls
can develop under the jawline with folds
and fat deposits. Sometimes creases begin
to form between the nose and the mouth.
A Facelift
Surgery Thailand can considerably
reduce these signs of aging by removing
excess fat, tightening the underlying
muscles, and redraping the skin around
the neck and face. Facelift
Surgery Thailand can be done alone,
or are frequently performed in conjunction
with another procedure such as a forehead
lift, eyelid surgery, or nose reshaping.
Surgical procedure - Facelift
Surgery Thailand
Although there are many variations to
the Facelift
Surgery Thailand procedure, generally
a cut is made in your hairline at about
the site of your temple. It then goes
right round and behind your ear and finally
into the hairline where it is hidden.
This "frees" the skin so that
the surgeon can pull it tighter and up
and backwards. Once the skin has been
pulled into its new position, any excess
fat is trimmed off by the surgeon. In
some instances, the deeper facial tissues
may also need to be repositioned in order
to restore a more youthful line to your
face. If necessary, a small cut beneath
the chin allows fat to be removed from
the saggy areas under the chin with the
use of liposuction. The wounds are closed
with stitches and/or metal clips on the
scalp. The surgeon then applies a dressing
to protect the entire area where the cuts
were made and supports the face with special
facial bra.
This Facelift
Surgery Thailand technique is particularly
useful for patients with sagging cheeks,
deeper nasal furrows, (the grooves down
the side of the nose), thinner lips and
down-turned corners of the lips. If you
want to have a rough guide to how your
face might look after such surgery, you
can put a finger on the corner of your
lip and then lift the skin upwards and
outwards.
Anesthesia - Facelift
Surgery Thailand Facelift
Surgery Thailand are usually performed
under a general anaesthetic, although
a local anaesthetic along with a sedative
to make you drowsy can also be used, so
that you remain awake but feel very little
discomfort during the surgery.
Duration of operation - Facelift
Surgery Thailand
About two to three hours
Recovery time - Facelift
Surgery Thailand
Depending on the length of the operation,
you may be allowed go home after a few
hours, or remain in hospital for a couple
of days. Most patients return to work
10 to 14 days after the surgery.
Possible risks and complications
As with any operation, there are risks
associated with a Facelift
Surgery Thailand, such as reactions
to the anaesthetic, bleeding, haematoma,
asymmetry and nerve damage. Haematomas
are collections of blood under the skin
and, if small, can be absorbed of their
own accord over several days. Drainage
may be required for larger haematomas.
Injury to the nerves that control facial
muscles is usually only temporary, but
can result in numbness to some areas of
the Facelift
Surgery Thailand.
Asymmetry means that there is some difference
in the result of the Facelift Surgery
Thailand in different parts of the face.
At its worst, eyes can look lop-sided,
or features do not seem to be lined up
symmetrically after Facelift
Surgery Thailand. Such an uneven result
is not common, however.
Post-operative infections, although rare,
can occur.
Operation scars are permanent. They do
fade over time and are usually hardly
noticeable, as they are often hidden,
either by your hair or the natural creases
in your skin. Occasionally, however, scar
tissue may widen and become thicker in
the healing process making it more noticeable.
After care Facelift
Surgery Thailand
There is pain and discomfort for several
days following surgery. Facial swelling
is usually at its worst 24 to 48 hours
after Facelift
Surgery Thailand, and it may take
several weeks before all puffiness goes
down. You should keep your head propped
up at night in order to reduce swelling.
Applying cold compresses in the first
few days will reduce this swelling and
make you feel a bit better. Wearing a
facial support can avoid collection and
maintain new position of face.Most bruising
will disappear within two weeks. You will
also experience some numbness in the facial
area, which may last for several weeks
or longer. Your stitches will be removed
a week or so after Facelift
Surgery Thailand. Avoiding any strenuous
exercise for at least 2 weeks following
surgery is recommended.
