Houston Facelift - Dr Mentz MD, FICS,
FACS
Facelift ( Rhytidectomy ) The facelift restores a more youthful, smooth appearance to the face
through the removal of excess skin, and a tightening of underlying tissues and muscles. The correction of sagging
cheeks and jowls gives the face a more uplifted, refreshed appearance and restores a defined contour to the
jaw-line. A facelift is often performed in conjunction with a brow lift, eyelid surgery, and a neck lift.
Facial Rejuvenation Procedures Over time, the effects of aging, sun damage, and lifestyle
habits are increasingly reflected on the face. Skin elasticity begins to erode, which leads to an increase in the
number and depth of wrinkles and folds that appear around the face. In addition, the facial fat that contributes to
a youthful, supple appearance begins to diminish, causing the face to become more hollow and gaunt in areas such as
the cheek pads, temples and lower lids.

Assesment: After listening to the patient and
understanding that her goal was to look as great on the outside as she felt on the

volume to her face, redirect the angles of her jawline, brow and eyes and place
them in a more youthful position.

endoscopic browlift, upper and lower eyes, fat graft laughlines, cheeks, and chin
area.

laxity and the jowling is completely gone. Her eyes and brows are beautiful
and feminine again.

Patients with fullness and sagging of the soft
tissues can show aging prematurely. Precise contouring and resuspension
of soft tissues can improve beauty and restore youthfulness. Careful
tayloring of each operation to fit individual need is especially
necessary in facial surgery.
