As we age, the skin naturally loses elasticity, facial muscles weaken, and gravity begins to show its effects. Fine lines deepen, the cheeks and jawline start to sag, and facial definition fades.
A face lift — also known as rhytidectomy — is a highly effective cosmetic procedure designed to reverse these signs of aging.
At Dr. Fadaei Clinic, we perform advanced face lift techniques that tighten, lift, and rejuvenate the skin for a refreshed and naturally youthful appearance.
A face lift is a surgical procedure that lifts and repositions sagging facial skin and underlying tissues to restore firmness and definition.
It addresses several key concerns, including:
• Drooping cheeks and jowls
• Deep folds around the mouth (nasolabial lines)
• Loose or sagging skin along the jawline and neck
The goal of a face lift isn’t to change your features — it’s to help you look like a younger, well-rested version of yourself. The result is a smoother, firmer, and more radiant face.
Have visible skin laxity in the lower face or neck
Desire long-lasting rejuvenation beyond non-surgical treatments
Are in good general health and a non-smoker
Have realistic expectations and wish for natural results
Patients typically range from their 40s to 70s, but suitability depends more on skin condition and structure than on age.
At Dr. Fadaei Clinic, our surgeons tailor each procedure to your needs.
Common types include:
1. Full Face Lift – Comprehensive rejuvenation for the face, jawline, and neck.
2. Mini Face Lift – Targets early signs of sagging with smaller incisions and faster recovery.
3. Mid-Face Lift – Lifts the cheeks and under-eye area for youthful volume.
4. Neck Lift Combination – Often performed with a face lift to enhance the jawline and smooth the neck.
Your surgeon will recommend the best technique based on your anatomy, aging pattern, and desired outcome.
Face lift surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation.
Step-by-step overview:
1. Incisions – Made discreetly around the ears and along the hairline for minimal visibility.
2. Tissue Repositioning – The deeper facial layers (SMAS) are lifted and tightened for structure and support.
3. Skin Refinement – Excess skin is carefully trimmed and smoothed over the new contours.
4. Closure – Sutures are placed to ensure clean healing and nearly invisible scars.
The procedure usually takes 2–4 hours, and most patients return home the same day.
Recovery from a face lift is generally straightforward when following post-operative care instructions.
What to expect:
• Mild swelling or tightness for the first few days
• Keep your head elevated while resting
• Avoid strenuous activity for 2–3 weeks
• Stitches are typically removed within 7–10 days
• You can resume light work after about one week
Within 2–4 weeks, swelling subsides and your refreshed appearance becomes visible. Final results continue to improve over several months as tissues settle naturally.
Firmer, smoother facial skin
Reduced wrinkles and sagging
Sharper jawline and neck definition
More youthful and rested appearance
Results that last 7–10 years or longer
At Dr. Fadaei Clinic, our approach focuses on subtle, natural enhancement — you’ll look refreshed, not “overdone.”

I am very pleased with the results of my liposuction, BBL, and breast augmentation/lift surgery performed by Dr. Fedayee. I would like to sincerely thank him and his exceptional team.
I had a cheek, forehead and central lip lift surgery at the doctor’s office on March 8, 2024. I can say that after two weeks, his work was a masterpiece. Surgery with Dr. Fadaei was the greatest favor I did for myself. Strong support team. They were available at any time of the day or night. Overall, his ethics and behavior with the patient were the best and I am a thousand times satisfied.
I introduced a patient from England to him. He is very skilled and experienced in facial plastic surgery and my patient is very happy with the results.
Most results last between 7–10 years, depending on lifestyle and skincare habits.
Incisions are discreetly hidden along natural lines and within the hairline, making scars barely noticeable once healed.
You can typically apply makeup after 10–14 days, once incisions are fully healed.
Yes. Many patients combine it with eyelid surgery, brow lift, or fat grafting for complete rejuvenation.
