Patient Details
What does Dr. Sundine’s facelift actually look like?
See the difference a carefully designed facelift can make.
This 72-year-old woman wanted improvement of the multiple changes associated with facial aging.
Her main concerns centered mainly around her lower face and neck. She also had a sagging central brow that contributed to an annoyed appearance.
Her individual anatomy required a customized surgical plan. In particular, she already had an elevated hairline, so the forehead elevation was performed through an incision at the hairline to avoid moving the hairline further backward.
The deeper facial tissues were repositioned to restore a more youthful facial contour while maintaining her natural facial character. Her neck bands were divided and brought together to address the banding.
What you are seeing:
- Smoother lower face
- Improved jowls
- More defined jawline
- Upturned corners to mouth
- Significant improvement of the neck definition
- Restoration of a more youthful heart-shaped facial appearance
Why this facelift was designed differently
Every facelift is not the same because every face is not the same.
This patient’s concerns involved the lower face, neck, and central brow, but her individual anatomy also influenced how the procedures were performed.
Because her hairline was already elevated, the forehead elevation was designed to avoid further posterior displacement of the hairline. The deeper facial tissues were repositioned to address the midface and lower face, while the neck required a different treatment to address the prominent bands and fullness restore the youthful configuration beneath the chin.
The treatment was therefore designed around her individual anatomy and the specific changes she wanted to improve—not simply around performing a standard facelift.
The result is a more youthful appearance while maintaining her individual facial character.
