MACS FACE LIFT |
|
Many people want a younger looking face
and are not interested in taking substantial time
off work or out of their busy schedule. Most conventional
facial surgery is just that, time intensive.
At the MAYFAIR Clinic there is a simple technique
to make that transformation, to improve your appearance
by 8-10 years, without long cuts and without the
need for more than a long-weekend off work. The
"three day face alternative" is designed
for people from 30-60 who want subtle but substantial
changes to their features, a reduction to the
age of their face without a change to their personality
which harsh facelifts may cause..
The MACS lift (Minimal Access Cranial Suspension
Lift) was described as a modification of the S-lift
by a Belgian group in 2001. It was reported in
the Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery journal,
which is the main scientific journal for plastic
surgeons. The Mayfair Clinic MACS Face Lift can
be performed in London or Athense by Mr.Keramidas
MD or our female surgeon Dr. Rodopolue MD.
How does
it differ from a traditional face lift?
1. The incision is limited to the skin hairline
junction above the ear and interior to the ear.
There is no extension behind the ear.
2. The area of undermining, unlike a conventional
facelift, is much smaller and only involves a
portion of the cheek. Because there is less undermining,
the blood supply to the skin is much more robust
and the technique is therefore safer in smokers.
There is much less risk of any skin necrosis,
unlike other lifts.
3. Permanent suspension sutures are used to elevate
the underlying tissue. These pass down to the
neck, jowls and cheek fat pad. Unlike many other
facelifts which do not include significant mid
face elevation the MACS lift elevates the malar
fat pad reducing the naso labial folds.
4. Because there is no undermining under the SMAS
(superficial musculoaponeurotic system) there
is very little likelihood of damage to the facial
nerve.
5. Because the undermining and dissection is much
more limited the post operative swelling and oedema
is much less than in normal facelifts and recovery
is therefore quicker.
6. Because the malar fat pad is elevated it combines
very well with lower lid blepharoplasty. The result
is a reduction in the height of the lower eyelid
giving a more youthful, smooth appearance.
7. In nearly all cases liposuction is performed
to the neck area below the angle of the mandible,
both to remove excess fat here and also to free
up the skin to allow it to be re-draped by the
suspension sutures.
8. The MACS lift produces results at least equivalent,
or in most cases, better than a conventional facelift.
It is ideally suited to the younger patient with
a sagging mid face. In patients with marked sagging
of the neck it may be necessary in some cases
to make an incision posterior to the ear to take
up this slack, but in most cases this is not necessary. |
