Facelift Perth, Western Australia
As we age our tissue becomes weakened, we lose facial fat and the underlying support structure becomes lax and ptotic (sagging). The main areas to suffer this sagging are our cheeks, around the eyes, the brows, the jowls and the neck, creating a longer and older looking face. Younger patients suffer from cheek and brow ptosis as well, often prompting them to seek procedures which are effective but less invasive than major surgery.

Who is a Candidate for a Facelift?
If you are in good physical, emotional and mental health, have realistic expectations, no serious health problems, have normal skin thickness and have the desire to rid yourself of loose, sagging tissue of the face and neck, you may be a good candidate for a facelift. However, only a qualified professional will be able to determine your needs as an individual.
Most facelift procedures are performed under regional or local anaesthesia with the addition of an oral sedative. However, increasingly, doctors are using twilight sedation with local anaesthesia. The threads required per area would be two for each brow, three for each cheek, 2 for each jaw line and two for each side of the neck.
If you are considering losing weight, you may want to wait until your desired weight is met. You may need additional lifting or skin removal surgery to alleviate excess skin after you have lost the desired weight.

What Areas Can Be Treated With a Facelift in Perth?
The areas which may be treated with a facelift include:
- Outer brow
- Cheeks
- Jaw line
- Neck
Many patients will not need all of these areas corrected in their facelift. Common areas for younger facelift patients are the cheeks and brows since they are the first in line to begin their descent. As you age, the lower half of the face begins to sag as well.
