Should I Have a Face Lift (Part 1)

Wendy Ann Owen

Good question! A face lift is major surgery and surgery means blood, mess, discomfort, stitches and time out to recover. A face lift is expensive too.

There are risks to consider, one is hematoma when the blood collects under the skin and has to be surgically removed. Damage to the nerves that control your facial muscles is another although this is less common. Slow healing time can also be a problem although this is found mainly in smokers. Oh! and don’t forget the usual risks that are involved with anesthesia.

On the plus side, the effects of a face lift are quite dramatic. It is without a doubt the fastest and most permanent way of shedding your ‘old’ face and regaining some of that youthful beauty you were born with..

If you’ve considered these things and decided that the final outcome is worth it, then proceed, but first please ask yourself these questions.
