Rhytidectomy
It is facial rejuvenation by skin resection and stretching, accompanied by modification of fat and fascia. Rhytidectomy does not have a universal technique, each patient has a set of problems that require a precise anatomical diagnosis and an individualized surgical plan.
Risks: The skin is a functional covering of the face, it is not a support structure. Using the skin as many surgeons do to mobilize the deep planes results in abnormal tension, which is associated with poor healing, malposition of the ear, and unnatural appearance. Modifications of the musculoaponeurotic system of the face must be made to have a lasting and natural result.
