Facelift in Lima, Peru | Natural, Long Lasting Results

A facelift (also known as rhytidectomy) is a cosmetic surgery that helps refresh and lift the face. The goal is to tighten facial muscles, remove sagging skin, and get rid of excess fat.

This gives the face a smoother, more youthful look. Take a look at this wonderful video and the before and after shots:

The goal of a facelift is to restore a more youthful and natural look — not to make you look “done.” In many cases, fillers or other injectables are used together with the surgery to smooth out fine lines, deep wrinkles, and repair surface skin damage.

✅ This combination gives more complete and natural-looking results.

This patient combined a facelift with a neck lift and some fillers. What a result!

When is the facelift procedure advisable?

A facelift may be a good option if you can gently pull back your skin and notice a big improvement in how your face looks. This often means your skin has started to lose firmness and volume.

🧑‍⚕️ The best candidates are usually over 40 and have:

1️⃣ Loose or sagging skin
2️⃣ Extra fat around the face
3️⃣ Signs of aging that fillers or creams can’t fix

✅ Still, age isn’t everything. Anyone in good health, with elastic skin and a strong bone structure, can benefit from facelift surgery to refresh their appearance.

Facelift in Lima, Peru – What are my Options?

There are four main facelift techniques, depending on your needs:

1️⃣ Traditional facelift in Lima
The incision starts at the temples within the hairline, curves in front of the ear, and finishes behind the ear at the lower scalp. Good for moderate to advanced aging.

Helps the jawline, cheeks, and neck. Ideal when you want comprehensive rejuvenation with long-lasting results from a facelift in Lima.

2️⃣ Limited incision facelift
A shorter incision above the ear within the hairline. It does not extend to the lower scalp. Best for mild to moderate aging. Targets early jowls and midface descent. Faster recovery.

A great entry option if you want a very subtle facelift in Lima with minimal downtime.

3️⃣ Neck lift (if chosen)
The cut starts in front of the earlobe, curves around the ear, and ends at the lower scalp. A small extra incision under the chin treats banding, sagging, or excess fat. Improves the angle between chin and neck.

4️⃣ Deep plane facelift
Repositions the deeper facial layers beneath the SMAS for a more thorough lift of the midface and jawline. Releases deep ligaments to move the cheek and jowl units as a single layer. Very natural look.

Excellent for pronounced jowls and midface flattening. Results from a deep plane facelift in Lima tend to be durable with softer, youthful contours.

✅ Which technique is right for you? We confirm it during your consultation with photos, skin quality assessment, and medical history.
✅ Many patients combine a facelift in Lima with neck lift, eyelid surgery, brow lift, or CO2 laser for texture.
✅ Virtual consultations are available before you travel.

✅ Our surgeon will recommend the best option based on your facial structure and the areas you want to improve.

The surgery takes between two and three hours. However, it may take longer if other cosmetic procedures are done at the same time.

It is important to remember that facelift surgery removes excess skin and fat. It also tightens muscles and smooths the contours of the face. This way, we achieve a totally natural, more youthful appearance.
