Natural aging causes the face to start showing wrinkles, loose skin, and fine lines. Facelift surgery or rhytidectomy reduces these signs of aging by fat transfer and tightening the skin around the face, jaw line, and neck. When done by a good surgeon, face lift surgery in London can immediately restore the youthfulness of the face. The key is to choose the right cosmetic surgeon in London to perform your facelift—one whose previous work you like and with whom you feel comfortable. There are certain factors to consider during your selection process:

  • Experience and Certification

Many people fall prey to cheap cosmetic surgeries in foreign countries because they fail to research on the surgeon’s history. Don’t make this same mistake. Always check the surgeon’s certification and history. One of the leading cosmetic surgeons in London is not only registered with the GMC or General Medical Council—he also has over sixteen years of medical experience and has performed thousands of successful operations for many satisfied clients.

  • Expertise

The best cosmetic surgeons in London offer many choices when it comes to facelifts—from traditional facelifts to the latest ‘one stitch’ lifts. The best choice really depends on your age and goals. Your surgeon can help you decide the best way to go—whether that’s a traditional full facelift (which may or may not include a neck lift), SMAS facelift, mid-face lift, mini facelift, a thread lift, or a one stitch lift. For those in their fifties or sixties, traditional full lifts are often advised. Those who suffer from mid-face drooping typically prefer the SMAS or Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System facelift. The mid-face lift only requires cheek elevation and refines the facial structure. The risk and recovery time is minimal. The least invasive facelift in the one stitch lift. The improvement is subtle, but the healing time is shorter.

  • Customer Service

A great surgeon always makes it a point to listen to the patient. If you have any questions, no matter how embarrassing, the ideal cosmetic surgeon should be able to communicate with you freely to cover any inquiries or settle any issues. They should also set realistic expectations for you, instead of promising idealistic results that could disappoint you in the end.
