A facelift, also known as a rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure used to address visible signs of ageing by tightening facial tissues and removing excess skin. The goal is to support a smoother and more balanced facial contour. Consultations are available in Manchester and Liverpool to assess individual suitability and discuss treatment options.

Possible risks may include:

Scarring
Changes in skin sensation (such as numbness or tingling)
Skin irregularities or asymmetry

The possibility of revision surgery
The likelihood and severity of risks can vary depending on the individual’s health, skin quality, and the surgical technique used. During your consultation, a detailed discussion will take place to explain the potential risks, expected outcomes, and recovery process.
