Benefits of Facelift
- Tightens sagging facial skin caused by aging
- Reduces fine lines and deep wrinkles on the face
- Redefines the jawline and reduces jowls (sagging cheeks)
- Restores volume for a more youthful facial appearance
- Helps boost self-confidence
A facelift (rhytidectomy) is a plastic surgery procedure aimed at tightening sagging facial skin and restoring a facial contour that has lost its shape due to aging. The procedure works by tightening the underlying facial muscle layer (SMAS) and removing excess skin, so the final result looks younger while still appearing natural.
A facelift is generally recommended for patients experiencing sagging skin in the cheeks, jawline, and neck, deep nasolabial folds, and a loss of defined facial contour. The procedure is performed by a plastic surgeon under general or local anesthesia, and the final results become fully visible after several months of recovery.
1. Full Facelift
Tightens the entire lower face, including the cheeks, jawline, and neck, through more extensive incisions around the hairline and behind the ears. Suited for more significant signs of aging.
2. Mini Facelift
Focuses on a more limited area such as the jawline and lower cheeks, with smaller incisions and a shorter recovery time. Suited for patients with early to moderate signs of aging.
A necklift is often included as part of a facelift procedure when a patient also wants to tighten sagging skin and muscle in the neck area. However, a necklift can also be performed separately to address concerns limited to the neck alone, such as excess skin or sagging neck muscles.
Before undergoing a facelift, it is important to consider your goals and expectations realistically, and to understand that a facelift slows down visible signs of aging rather than stopping them entirely. Make sure your health condition is good and that you are prepared for a recovery process that can take several weeks.
Also, make sure your facelift is performed at a trusted clinic or hospital. La Reine Aesthetic Jakarta is one such option, where the procedure is carried out by experienced plastic surgery specialists, supported by modern technology and high safety and security standards.

Procedure
Facelift Procedure Stages
01The doctor will administer general anesthesia (medication given intravenously so you sleep through the procedure) or local anesthesia (a numbing agent injected into the inner cheek).
02While you are asleep or fully numb, the surgeon makes small, hidden incisions around the hairline, behind the ears, or under the chin.
03After the incisions are made, the facial muscle tissue (SMAS layer) is tightened for a natural, long-lasting result.
04The doctor removes excess skin and refines the facial area according to its natural contour.
05The incisions are closed using a fine technique to minimize scarring.

- You see fine lines or wrinkles deepening even after trying other treatments
- You want a natural, proportional result — not a drastic change to your face
Note: this procedure is generally recommended for patients above 40 years old in good overall health, and smokers will be asked to stop temporarily before and after the procedure as advised by the doctor.

FAQ
Facelift FAQs
Common questions patients ask before undergoing a facelift procedure at La Reine Aesthetic.
Facelift is performed under anesthesia, so patients do not feel pain during the procedure. Once the anesthesia wears off, mild discomfort, swelling, and bruising are normal and can be managed with pain relief medication prescribed by the doctor.
The initial recovery period generally lasts around 7 days, marked by reduced swelling and bruising. The more precise final results typically become fully visible after several months, as facial tissue adapts.
Every procedure at La Reine Aesthetic is designed with precise SMAS layer tightening, so the final result stays natural and true to your facial character, without looking overly tight or dramatic.
A facelift slows down visible signs of aging rather than stopping them entirely. Results can last for years depending on the technique used, skin condition, and the patient's lifestyle after the procedure.
Initial consultations at La Reine Aesthetic are free of charge, so you can discuss your facial condition and expected results before deciding to undergo the procedure.
