A facelift, called a rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic facial surgery that uses tiny incisions above the hairline to lift and tighten sagging skin.
As we age, the skin on our face and neck starts to wrinkle and lose elasticity. This affects both the upper and lower parts of the face. Fortunately, Dr. Omar Husein, a skilled plastic surgeon at Spokane Valley ENT, can help. He performs facial cosmetic surgery to tighten the skin on the face, neck, and brow, giving you a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
During your consultation, Dr. Husein will examine your face, skin, and underlying bone. He will also discuss your surgical goals and review your medical history. This ensures there are no issues that could affect your surgery.
Rhytidectomy
Rhytidectomy, or a facelift, is a popular procedure for facial rejuvenation. It involves making small incisions near the hairline. The skin is then lifted, and underlying tissues and muscles are tightened. Finally, the skin is repositioned for a smoother, tighter look.
Neck Lift
For a neck lift, an incision is made under the chin. This procedure usually takes several hours. Dr. Husein uses advanced techniques, which involve smaller incisions. This approach reduces scarring, bleeding, and even hair loss.
Forehead Lift
A forehead lift, or brow lift, targets the area above the eyes. It reduces drooping eyelids and improves frown lines. There are two methods: a traditional lift or an endoscopic lift. The traditional method involves an incision along the hairline, lifting and tightening the skin. The endoscopic brow lift uses a small device through a tiny incision, offering a minimally invasive option.
With Dr. Husein’s expertise, patients can achieve natural-looking, youthful results with minimal scarring.
