What Types Of Facelift Are Available?
At Marietta Plastic Surgery, we offer every option in facelift surgery. The most commonly used types of facelift are:
- SMAS lift
- Short scar facelift
- Skin only facelift
Each of these types of facelift varies in the procedure and areas affected. If you are uncertain which type of facelift you would like to receive, you can ask one of our board-certified Marietta facial plastic surgeons to help you decide during your consultation.
Can I Combine My Facelift With Other Plastic Surgery Procedures?
You may combine virtually any plastic surgery procedure with another, although some procedures may require more than one surgery.
For the best possible results, many patients find that a facelift in conjunction with a neck lift, brow lift, and eyelid lift provides the optimal outcome.
