Going for a facelift overseas only (ie no neck no eyes, just face) makes no sense unless you are getting the eyes and neck done also. PlanetHospital believes in making sure you get an excellent outcome and this sometimes means discouraging you from taking half measures. A facelift without the eyes being done will not look good in the long run.
Besides it might not be economically advantageous to JUST get a facelift only so when comparison shopping make sure you are comparing our prices to a full face lift with neck and eyes. Also, we know of many surgeons who can do this procedure for a LOT cheaper, but then again, we have yet to see CHEAP = GOOD. We instead are recommending world class surgeons who can give you a great look without the "saran wrap effect".

A traditional facelift begins with an incision in the hairline at the temples, continues around the ear and ends in the back of the lower scalp. The jowls, neck and underlying tissue is repositioned. The deeper layers of the face and the muscles may also be uplifted. Excess skin is trimmed away. Sutures or skin adhesives are used to close the incisions.
Once completed, a bandage will be applied along incision lines to minimize swelling and bruising. A thin tube may be used to drain excess blood or fluid under the skin.
As women age, their skin begins to discolor, sag and become less elastic, especially in the face. There is no natural correction to this issue - although many products on the market promise differently, however it can be corrected by having a face lift. Face lift surgery can remove sagging skin, make you look more youthful and remove wrinkles (as well as possible aging spots depending on size/location). It will also create more uplifted contours and improved tone in the facial skin and underlying muscle.
Face lifts are elective cosmetic surgeries, and therefore, are generally not covered by insurance. However, if a procedure is to correct genetic deformities or traumatic injuries, the patient may be reimbursed in whole or part by medical insurance.
A face lift may be performed in conjunction with other cosmetic procedures like a forehead lift, eyelid surgery, or nose reshaping. The primary difference between face lifts in men and women is placement of the incision. There are several different face lift surgeries, so discuss your goals with your surgeon.
A face lift is the second most commonly used cosmetic procedure among women. It is a
surgical procedure tightens underlying tissue, removes excess fat and reduces sagging skin. Some women choose to have their neck/chin/above the brow done at the same time. Incisions will be placed in inconspicuous areas like around the ear or in the hairline. For neck lifts, the incision will be made beneath the chin. There are several types of face lifts: standard or traditional face lift, deep plan face lift, mini-incision or short scar face lift, S-lift, and mid-face lift.
