FaceTite is less invasive, with smaller scars and generally faster recovery. The traditional facelift removes excess skin and repositions the muscles, and is more suitable for cases of more pronounced sagging.
The incisions are very small and strategically placed in discreet areas, such as behind the ears or under the chin.
The duration can vary depending on the extent of the treatment, but generally lasts between 1 and 2 hours.
The procedure is performed under anaesthesia, minimising discomfort. Post-operatively, there may be some discomfort, which is managed with medication.
Most patients resume social activities in about a week. Swelling and bruising are common, but gradually subside.
You can usually go back to wearing light make-up after a few days, under medical supervision.
