What is Facelift?

A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a nuanced surgical procedure designed to restore youthful definition to the lower face and neck. It addresses sagging skin, jowls, volume loss, and deep folds caused by time, gravity, and environmental exposure. Techniques focus on repositioning underlying tissues rather than merely tightening the skin, yielding elegant, lasting results while preserving facial harmony, structure, and movement.

What are the Benefits of Facelift?

• Redefines the jawline and neck for a more youthful contour
• Softens deep creases and folds for a rested appearance
• Restores midface volume loss
• Tightens loose, excess skin
• Enhances self-assurance by aligning how you look and feel
• Provides results that blend seamlessly with your natural appearance.

Facelift Recovery Timeline

Week 1-2

Mild to moderate swelling and bruising is common and gradually begins to subside. You’ll wear a supportive garment and attend your review for suture checks around 7–10 days post-op. Most patients take this time to rest and heal quietly at home.

Week 3-4

Bruising continues to fade significantly. You may begin gentle walks and return to non-physical work. Makeup can often be worn to camouflage remaining discolouration. As swelling recedes, early results begin to appear.

Month 2-3

Normal daily life resumes, including light exercise. Sensory changes (tingling, firmness, or numbness) start to settle. The refined facial contours are now visibly more natural and lifted.

Month 6-12

Any subtle residual swelling resolves. The result stabilises, revealing defined yet soft facial lines that feel and look authentically you. This is often when final photos are taken and patients celebrate long-lasting results.

From the initial telephone consultation to now being 2 weeks post op I can say that the service and care provided by Dr Hamadeh and his team is absolutely incredible!! I instantly knew this was the surgeon I wanted to go with for my rhinoplasty. Dr Hamadeh is very thorough and realistic with expectations, which is something that helped me in setting a realistic expectation for my rhinoplasty. Thank you again! 😊

Dr. Hamadeh and Jazzmeen were amazing from start to finish. They made me feel comfortable, explained everything clearly, and the care I received before and after surgery was outstanding. I’m so happy with my results and grateful for their support!

Amazing experience from start to finish! The staff are so incredibly helpful and nice and i felt relaxed and at ease the whole time. I would highly recommend Dr Hamadeh and my confidence has been improved massively. I’ve wanted this surgery for 7 years and i couldn’t have chosen a better surgeon to do my septorhinosplasty. 10/10 experience!

I am 2 months post op and have had a great experience with Dr Hamadeh. He was very thorough in my appointments beforehand and discussed realistic expectations. Really happy with the results so far! Pre and post care has been fantastic and big shout out to Jazzmeen who has been amazing! I have had a lot of questions, messaging her day and night and she has been so helpful and reassuring throughout. Being a bit of a worrier with lots of questions, I am not sure what I would have done without Jazzmeen! Thank you!!!
