As a part of aging, our skin can lose anywhere from 20-80% of its volume. Reduced production of collagen, elastin, and glycosaminoglycans in the dermis of our skin is the main reason behind the loss of facial volume. The skin on the face begins to sag as it loses some of its elasticity with time. A youthful triangle-shaped focus of the face inverts overtime on a squarer shape.
You don’t have to surrender your youthful looks to aging. A skilled, board-certified cosmetic surgeon helps you counteract the effects of gravity and time. He will also allow you to restore the naturally vibrant appearance you enjoyed years ago. A facelift is a colloquial term for Rhytidectomy; Rytid is the medical term for wrinkle, and –ectomy means to remove. It is mainly a procedure that removes facial wrinkles. Also, it addresses the early signs of aging before they take hold.
