In some men and women, the aging process may have accelerated to such an extent or it may be the case that they have postponed facial care or maintenance for an extended period of time, that a different approach for a facelift procedure is required.

For those where there is excessive facial and neck tissue, manifested in excess folds and fat deposits appearing around the chin and neck that has become loosened over time, then the unique and expert techniques involved in the Multiple Layer Extended Face/Neck Lift may be recommended by your surgeon. The Multiple Layer Extended Face/Neck Lift is a combined face and neck lift that can specifically address a jaw line that has become slack, lax and jowly with excess folds and fat deposits appearing around the chin and neck.

Popularly performed on men and women of over 50 years of age, The Multiple Layer Extended Face/Neck Lift involves the removal of excess fat, both above and below the mid line muscles of the neck and a re-positioning of these muscles to reduce visible and unsightly neck bands or skin folds that are a product of the aging neck. A specialty technique called the SMAS is employed which involves the tightening of the underlying neck muscles. Excess skin is expertly removed and pulled back to restore facial lines and enhance symmetry. Similar to the S-Face and Neck Lift, the incision extends in a line above the ear. The incision is hidden inside the fold or crease of the ear and continues behind the ear, to the extent required by the scope of the correction. Any scars are hidden by the hair or in the natural creases of the ears. Scarring of the hidden incisions inside and behind the ear will eventually fade within time and be scarcely visible. The SMAS technique achieves a more refined slender contour without altering the natural expression of the face. This unique, highly advanced technique yields a dramatic, more youthful yet natural contoured appearance to the face and neck and an overall rested and refreshed facial appearance.

One of the recent proven breakthroughs in facial rejuvenation today is the Tissue Glue Technique that has been developed by drawing on experience in various medical applications in Europe for the last decade.

This unique approach employed with the various strategic surgical techniques of face-lifting involves a high tech, medically designed, liquid tissue sealant developed specifically for bonding tissue. This highly innovative and specialized material is applied with the Tissue Glue Technique, resulting in minimal discomfort, less bruising and swelling than typical in the traditional-approach surgical procedures, as well as reducing recovery time by half, whilst achieving prolonged longevity in results.

This highly specialized Tissue Glue technique is applied to various facial procedures.
