A Personalized Approach to Facial Renewal

At PSG, our board-certified plastic surgeons help patients rediscover a refreshed, more youthful version of themselves through modern facelift surgery. Over time, the natural ageing process causes the skin to lose elasticity and firmness, leading to sagging around the jawline, deeper creases around the mouth, and loosened tissue in the neck. A facelift (rhytidectomy) restores balance, definition, and smoothness to the lower face and neck. By tightening underlying tissues and carefully repositioning the skin, our surgeons achieve results that appear naturally rejuvenated rather than dramatically altered. Each procedure is carefully tailored to your facial anatomy and aesthetic goals, ensuring you still look like yourself—simply refreshed and more confident.

What a Facelift Can Improve

Facelift surgery addresses several of the most common visible signs of facial and neck aging. Depending on your individual concerns, the procedure may help improve:

  • Sagging skin along the jawline and lower face
  • Deep smile lines (nasolabial folds) and marionette lines
  • Jowls and loss of jawline definition
  • Loose neck skin or the appearance of a double chin
  • Volume loss in the mid-face and cheeks

Your surgeon will create a personalized surgical plan based on your facial anatomy, skin condition, and aesthetic goals to achieve refined, natural-looking results.

Dr. Oxley has done two procedures removing cancer for me. The first visit I had with him was in the surgery suite. He was professional, punctual and had just the right amount of humour for what was a stressful time for me. The follow up visit was on time and I was booked for a second surgery. The second surgery was again, punctual and professional with a touch of humour. I am in the process of booking a follow up to my latest surgery now. I would not hesitate to use Dr. Oxley again.

Dr. Imran Ratanshi performed my breast reduction surgery a month ago and I feel amazing.

My highest recommendation for an outstanding doctor and person: Dr. Rizwan Mian. Dr. Mian has surgically removed cancer from my skin a number of times in recent years - all basal-cell carcinoma. He has always been the ultimate professional but with a kind and gentle manner that calms any anxiety a patient might be feeling. And when my most recently removed skin tested positive for melanoma I was anxious indeed! This time it was a spot on my cheek that would require a large amount of tissue removal, a biopsy of the closest lymph node, and skin grafting, all done under general anesthesia. But I need not have worried. Dr. Mian was reassuring and amazingly skillful, the surgery was successful, the melanoma contained, and the complicated skin graft has healed so well that the incision on my face is already starting to disappear. Thank you, Dr. Mian!

Can’t recommend Dr Genoway enough! I was looking for a reconstructive surgeon for 5 years, had several consultations with other doctors. As soon as I met Dr Genoway, I knew I found my doctor. She is knowledgeable, experienced, kind and caring. Dr Genoway listened to all of my concerns, gave me honest medical opinion, including to comeback in a few years as I am too young for a particular procedures. I felt comfortable and not rushed or pressured. Most importantly I felt safe and in good hands. Ended up having my postpartum reconstruction and 2 other procedures (long time dream) in one go. Recovery was fast considering the extent of the procedures. I didn’t need the prescribed pain medication at all. She just has this “light hand”. Most importantly, the results are better than expected! Natural looking, better version of me, but still me. I feel more confident and much happier in my own skin.

I was a novice to surgery and the staff here were amazing - very friendly and helpful. Dr. Lee was very calm and knowledgeable and answered my questions. Breast reduction surgery was scary to me but I have zero regrets. Barely any pain or discomfort after surgery and any back pain I had before is now gone. I walk straighter and clothes fit better. My self esteem has improved. Would recommend this office and the actual surgery to anyone considering it. It’s a game changer.

I am a breast cancer survivor. After my reconstruction surgery failed I was referred to Dr Imran Ratanshi. His kind demeanor and great sense of humor put me at ease immediately. I was in a very dark place emotionally due to the appearance of my body. Dr. Ratanshi preformed a deep inferior epigastric perforator surgery and it was a complete success. I believe Dr Ratanshi saved my life! A very skilled surgeon and a wonderful man.

Ideal Candidates for Facelift Surgery

You may be a good candidate for facelift surgery if you:

  • Are in good overall health and do not smoke
  • Have moderate to significant skin laxity in the lower face or neck
  • Desire a natural rejuvenation rather than a drastic change
  • Have realistic expectations and a positive outlook

A facelift is best suited for those who wish to restore youthfulness without appearing over-corrected.

Background media

What to Expect During Your Consultation

During your private consultation, your plastic surgeon will:

  • Evaluate your facial structure and areas of concern
  • Review your medical history and discuss your lifestyle goals
  • Explain the various facelift techniques and what to expect before, during, and after surgery
  • Recommend complementary procedures for a balanced, refreshed appearance

Your consultation is designed to educate and empower you to make an informed, confident decision about your care.

Facelift Techniques and Options

All facelift procedures are performed under general anaesthetic and typically take four to six hours. Our surgeons customize each surgery to match your degree of facial ageing, skin elasticity, and desired outcome.

Traditional Facelift

The traditional facelift is the most comprehensive approach for addressing sagging skin, jowls, and deep facial folds. Incisions are discreetly placed along the hairline and around the ears, sometimes extending under the chin. The surgeon lifts and repositions the deeper facial layers (known as the SMAS), removes excess skin, and redrapes the tissues for a smooth, natural contour.

Mini Facelift

A mini facelift targets early signs of ageing in the lower face and jawline. This less invasive procedure uses shorter incisions and involves a quicker recovery. It is an excellent choice for patients seeking subtle improvement without extensive downtime.

Mid-Facelift

A mid-facelift focuses on rejuvenating the cheeks and mid-face area. Using small incisions near the lower eyelids, the surgeon repositions fat and soft tissue to restore youthful fullness and soften deep creases around the mouth.

Combination Procedures

To achieve a more complete rejuvenation, facelift surgery can be combined with:

  • Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty) to correct sagging or puffy eyelids
  • Brow Lift to elevate drooping brows and smooth forehead lines
  • Neck Lift to tighten the neck and improve definition under the chin
  • Facial Fat Grafting to restore lost volume in the cheeks and temples

Combining procedures creates balanced results with a single recovery period.

Preparing for Surgery

Before your facelift, you will attend a preoperative visit to discuss what to expect and how to prepare. Your care team will review medications, post-operative care, and all recovery instructions. Patients are advised to:

  • Avoid smoking before and after surgery
  • Stop taking blood thinners, anti-inflammatory drugs, and certain herbal supplements (such as ginkgo biloba,
  • St. John’s Wort, and high-dose vitamin E) two weeks before surgery
  • Arrange for someone to drive you home and assist during your initial recovery period

Recovery Timeline and Expectations

Following surgery, you can expect mild discomfort, swelling, and bruising that gradually improve over several weeks. Prescribed medication helps manage temporary soreness during the early stages of healing. Typical recovery milestones include:

  • Light activity: Within a few days
  • Return to work: Two to three weeks
  • Resume exercise: After six weeks
  • Final results: Three to six months after surgery

Patients typically wear a soft facial dressing during the first few days to minimize swelling and support healing. As swelling resolves, facial contours become more defined, revealing a smoother, firmer, and naturally refreshed appearance.

Potential Risks

All surgeries carry some degree of risk. Facelift complications are uncommon, particularly when performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon. Possible risks include:

    • Temporary swelling or bruising
    • Numbness or tightness in the face or neck
    • Infection or bleeding
    • Asymmetry or mild contour irregularities
    • Scarring (typically minimal and easily concealed)

    Your surgeon will discuss all risks during your consultation and provide detailed instructions to promote safe healing.

    Frequently Asked Questions Facelift

    How long do facelift results last?

    Most patients enjoy results that last ten years or longer, although the natural aging process continues gradually over time.

    Will I look unnatural after surgery?

    No. Surgeons focus on preserving natural facial expression and balance so patients look refreshed rather than overdone.

    Is there a lot of scarring?

    Incisions are carefully placed within the hairline and along natural facial creases, making scars subtle and easy to conceal once healed.

    Can a facelift be combined with non-surgical treatments?

    Yes. Many patients choose to complement or maintain their facelift results with treatments such as Botox, dermal fillers, or laser skin therapies.
