Create A Tighter, Younger Look
At one point or another, the signs of aging catch up with all of us. The look and structure of our faces and necks change as gravity and weight changes take their toll—creating looser, saggier skin that can make a person look older than they feel. Indian Hills Plastic Surgery knows the effect premature aging can have on self-confidence. If you’re looking to achieve a youthful, rejuvenated look for years to come, a facelift or necklift in Tuscaloosa is an excellent option.
How it Works
What to Expect From a Facelift in Tuscaloosa
A facelift procedure will start with a consultation with Dr. Wallace, who will provide patients with extensive education on their procedure. If you’re a suitable candidate for a facelift, we will move forward with scheduling your procedure.
During a traditional facelift, you’ll remain under general anesthesia throughout your surgery. Dr. Wallace will make an incision in the hairline at the temples and down to the lower scalp. This allows us to sculpt the face and neck and redistribute the fat, while also repositioning the underlying tissue. The next step is to reposition the skin above the uplifted contours and trim away any excess skin. Dr. Wallace will then close the incision with sutures—incision marks will fade over time.
