Facelift before & after

Before and after results from facelift (lower face and neck lift) surgery at our Edinburgh clinic. These are real patient photos; some wear make-up in the after images, so look at the jawline and neck definition. They give a sense of what to discuss at your consultation.

Lower neck/facelift

The images below are of a patient who had a lower neck and facelift combined with upper and lower blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery). She also had fat transfer (Coleman fat grafting) to her cheeks. The postoperative results are shown nine months after surgery. Please note, with all such images, the use of makeup in the postoperative images can be misleading (this is not deliberate on our part!).
