How is a facelift planned?

Planning defines which areas should be treated and how far it makes sense to intervene. Depending on the anatomy, a facelift may be combined with treatment of the neck, blepharoplasty, volume repositioning or other procedures. Combining procedures does not mean intervening more; it means treating only the structures that take part in the change observed.

The technique, the extent of the dissection, the type of anesthesia and the setting where surgery is performed are all defined during the individual medical evaluation.
