A facelift, medically known as rhytidectomy, is the gold standard for reversing visible signs of facial aging. If you've noticed sagging skin, deep wrinkles, jowls, or loss of definition along your jawline and neck, this transformative procedure can restore the vibrant, refreshed appearance you remember.
Unlike temporary solutions such as injectables or skin treatments, a facelift addresses the underlying structural changes that occur with aging. Dr. Basil Nwaoz's advanced techniques lift and tighten the deeper facial tissues—not just the skin—creating results that look natural, never "pulled" or artificial.
The procedure smooths nasolabial folds, eliminates jowls, refines the jawline, and tightens the neck for a harmonious, youthful contour. Most patients look 10-15 years younger, with results that can last a decade or more. Whether you're concerned about the effects of aging, sun damage, or genetics, a facelift offers a permanent solution that enhances your natural beauty.
Dr. Nwaoz customizes every facelift to your unique facial anatomy and aesthetic goals. The result? A refreshed version of yourself that looks rested, confident, and naturally beautiful—never overdone. If you're ready to feel as vibrant as you truly are, facelift surgery might be the answer.

Facelift Questions Answered
Get answers to the most common questions about facelift surgery with Dr. Basil Nwaoz.
Ideal candidates are in good overall health and have visible signs of facial aging—such as sagging skin, jowls, deep wrinkles, or loss of jawline definition—that don't respond adequately to non-surgical treatments. Most patients are between 40-70 years old, though age is less important than the quality of your skin and your aesthetic concerns. During your consultation, Dr. Nwaoz will evaluate your facial structure and discuss whether a facelift is the right solution for you.
A typical facelift procedure takes 3-5 hours, depending on the extent of work needed and whether you're combining it with other procedures such as neck lift, brow lift, or eyelid surgery. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia or twilight sedation in our state-of-the-art surgical facility. Most patients go home the same day with detailed aftercare instructions.
Most patients experience swelling and bruising for 2-3 weeks following surgery. You can typically return to work and light social activities within 10-14 days, though strenuous exercise should be avoided for 4-6 weeks. While you'll see immediate improvement, final results continue to refine for several months as swelling fully subsides and tissues settle into their new position. Most patients find the recovery well worth the dramatic, long-lasting results.
Dr. Nwaoz places incisions strategically along the hairline and around the ears, where they're easily concealed. Using meticulous closure techniques, he minimizes scarring to ensure it's virtually imperceptible once fully healed. Most patients can wear their hair up or style it however they prefer without visible evidence of surgery. Scars continue to fade significantly over 6-12 months.
With proper skin care and sun protection, facelift results typically last 10-15 years or more. While the aging process continues, you'll always look younger than if you hadn't had the procedure. Many patients enjoy their refreshed appearance for over a decade before considering a minor touch-up. The structural improvements made during surgery provide a lasting foundation that ages gracefully.
A full facelift addresses the entire lower face and neck, including the jowls, jawline, deep wrinkles, and loose neck skin. It involves more extensive lifting of deeper tissues and provides dramatic, comprehensive rejuvenation. A mini facelift targets mild to moderate aging in the lower face with smaller incisions and less recovery time. During your consultation, Dr. Nwaoz will recommend which approach will best achieve your goals based on your anatomy and degree of aging.
Absolutely. Many patients combine their facelift with complementary procedures such as neck lift, brow lift, eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty), or facial fat grafting for comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Combining procedures can minimize overall recovery time and create harmonious results. Dr. Nwaoz will discuss which combination of treatments will best address your unique concerns during your consultation.
The cost of facelift surgery varies based on the extent of your procedure, whether you're combining it with other treatments, anesthesia fees, facility fees, and your location. During your consultation, you'll receive a detailed cost breakdown tailored to your specific treatment plan. We offer flexible payment plans to help make your transformation more accessible. Investment in yourself and your confidence is priceless.
