Look Younger for Longer with a Facelift

Every woman wants to stay 29 forever, or at least look 29 for as long as they can. Unfortunately, nature has different plans. As women age, their faces naturally begin to show the signs of aging - wrinkles, crows feet, or loose skin along the cheekbones and along the neck.

Although the signs of aging are natural, you dont have to live with them. An increasing number of women are having facelift surgery in order to rejuvenate their appearance. In fact, facelift surgery is more popular than ever. Of course, a facelift will not stop the aging process.

"It is important that the patient has realistic expectations," notes Oakland / San Francisco / Marin County plastic surgeon Dr. Miguel Delgado. "A facelift is not going to give you an entirely different appearance. Rather, a facelift is designed to minimize the signs of aging by tightening the patients skin."

Many women avoid facelift surgery because they worry about being left with scars after the procedure. "A facelifts leaves the patient with minimal scarring," adds Dr. Delgado. "The incisions are incredibly small and placed along the hairline and within the natural contours of the patients face."

There are other benefits besides an improved appearance. Many women who receive facelifts report an increased amount of confidence, which they did not expect.
