SMAS Facelift
The aging process in the face & neck region is dependent on multiple factors relating to your bone structure, underlying tissues, and the skin itself.
In fact, face and neck soft tissue with the skin itself is anchored to the underlying skeleton in certain points. When a person gets older, the skin and soft tissue starts to gradually sag over these anchors points creating folds that causes the aged look. The aging process in the face & neck region is focused in these regions: aging of the skin, sagging of the soft tissue structures underneath the skin and loss of volume the skin, soft tissue and boney structure.
There are many techniques in plastic surgery to correct this problem. Current and popular techniques only the mask the issue with simple tricks and solutions, but in order to really tackle the issue in order to achieve a dramatic change, one needs to reposition the face and neck tissue structures. This is done by removing them from their anchors points and re-fitting them in order to achieve youthful look.
