What Is A Facelift?
A facelift is a cosmetic surgery designed to reduce visible signs of aging in the face and neck for a smoother, more youthful appearance. Over time, factors like gravity, sun exposure, and natural aging can lead to sagging skin, deep creases, jowls, and loose neck tissue. A facelift works by tightening underlying muscles, removing excess skin, and repositioning facial tissues to restore definition and create natural-looking results. At Advanced Aesthetics Plastic Surgery Center, our skilled surgeons customize each facelift to complement your unique features and rejuvenate your overall look. Contact our offices in Fayetteville, Newnan, or Stockbridge, GA today to schedule a consultation and discover how a facelift can help you look as vibrant as you feel.
How Is A Facelift Performed?
A facelift is typically performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia or sedation and usually takes several hours, depending on the extent of correction. During the procedure, the surgeon makes discreet incisions around the hairline and near the ears to access the underlying facial structures. The deeper tissues and muscles are gently lifted and tightened to restore definition, while excess skin is removed and the remaining skin is carefully redraped for a smoother, more youthful contour. In some cases, a facelift may be combined with procedures such as a neck lift or eyelid surgery for more comprehensive rejuvenation. Once complete, the incisions are closed with fine sutures, leaving scars that are well-hidden within the natural hairline and facial contours.
Common facelift approaches include:
- Traditional Facelift: Addresses moderate to advanced aging with incisions around the hairline and ears to tighten deeper tissues and remove excess skin
- Mini Facelift: Uses smaller incisions and targets mild sagging, often providing a quicker recovery with subtle, natural results
- Mid-Facelift: Focuses on lifting the cheeks and under-eye area to restore youthful fullness in the midface.
What Are the Benefits of A Facelift?
A facelift offers comprehensive facial rejuvenation by addressing sagging skin, deep wrinkles, and loss of definition for a more youthful and refreshed appearance. Some benefits include:
- Tightens sagging skin for a smoother contour
- Reduces deep creases and wrinkles around the mouth and nose
- Restores definition to the jawline and chin by minimizing jowls
- Smooths loose skin and banding in the neck when combined with a neck lift
- Provides natural-looking, long-lasting rejuvenation results
- Enhances overall facial harmony and balance
- Boosts self-confidence with a refreshed, youthful look

Because I was not happy with my sagging neck and double chin I decided to have a lower face lift at the age of 66. I'm so glad I did! I cannot say enough...
My experience with Dr. Edward Gronka was the BEST... I had a Face Lift, Liposuction & Tummy Tuck with no complications no pain just some discomfort at the first & 2nd week, the discomfort went away by the 3rd week after the drains were removed...I'm 66 yrs old The faceLift took 20yrs off my face, & my Tummy Tuck & Liposuction was Everything...This was the BEST DECISION I COULD HAVE MADE..SELFLOVE 💕..I will be back next year 2025 to do my breast...THANK YOU DR.
