Aging is a natural process, but if you’re looking for a way to refresh your appearance and feel more confident, a facelift could be the ideal solution. At Iconic Plastic Surgery, we specialize in customized facelift procedures designed to restore youthful contours and smooth wrinkles, helping you look as vibrant as you feel.
What Is a Facelift?
A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure that addresses visible signs of aging in the face and neck. By tightening facial muscles, removing excess skin, and redistributing fat, a facelift rejuvenates your overall appearance. Whether you’re concerned about sagging skin, deep folds, or loss of definition in your jawline, this procedure delivers transformative results.
Benefits of a Facelift
Choosing a facelift offers numerous benefits that go beyond aesthetic improvements:
- Restored Youthfulness: Smooth wrinkles and sagging skin to achieve a refreshed look.
- Natural-Looking Results: Our advanced techniques ensure your results are subtle and harmonious with your natural features.
- Long-Lasting Effects: While other treatments provide temporary solutions, a facelift offers results that last for years.
- Improved Confidence: Feel more self-assured in both personal and professional settings.
Who Is a Good Candidate for a Facelift?
You may be a good candidate for a facelift if you:
- Are in good overall health.
- Have noticeable signs of aging, such as sagging skin, deep folds, or jowls.
- Want long-lasting results to enhance your facial appearance.
- Have realistic expectations for the outcome of the procedure.
During your consultation at Iconic Plastic Surgery, Dr. D’Souza and his team will evaluate your facial structure and discuss your goals to determine the best approach for your needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. How long do facelift results last?
Most facelift results last 10 to 15 years, depending on factors like skin elasticity and lifestyle habits. It is important to remember that the natural aging process still occurs, so having a maintenance plan in place might be beneficial if you start noticing some aging signs later as the years progress.
2. Will I have visible scars?
Dr. D’Souza places incisions in discreet locations, such as along the hairline or behind the ears, to minimize visible scarring.
3. Can a facelift be combined with other procedures?
Yes! Many patients choose to combine a facelift with complementary treatments like a neck lift, eyelid surgery, or facial fat grafting for enhanced and comprehensive results.
