Facelift - Rhytidectomy

A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a personalized surgical treatment of the face designed to improve the loose skin under the chin, recreate a more youthful jaw line, and gently improve the position of the corners of the mouth.  There are many types and styles of facelifts, some more invasive than others.  Each person’s rhytidectomy or facelift is uniquely tailored for them by Dr. Lay.  It is Dr. Lay's goal to provide you with a more youthful, rejuvenated face.  However, it is Dr. Lay's philosophy that a facelift be done in such a way that the changes, while dramatic, are natural in appearance and delivered safely.

 Your first consultation with Dr. Lay is free of charge and it is never rushed.  Dr. Lay believes it is important you be well informed and feel completely comfortable about the transformation you will soon be making. 

 Several questions arise when patients come for a consultation such as:

 “What is the healing time for a face lift?”

“What are the risks of a face lift?”

“What kind of results can I expect from a face lift?”

“What type of face lift is right for me?”

“Is a face lift right for me?”
