Facelift - (Rhytidectomy) — Your
source for a facelift in Ottawa
As we age, stress, sun exposure, gravity and heredity have
a profound effect on how the structure your face changes
over time. These can lead to loose, sagging skin of the
lower face and neck, often referred to as "jowls".
For
over 70 years, both men and women over the age of 35 have
relied on a procedure called a Rhytidectomy to reverse these
signs of aging. A Rhytidectomy, more commonly referred to
as a 'Facelift', is designed to tighten the skin of the
face and neck, as well as to reposition the underlying facial
muscles. This creates a smoother, more controued appearance
of the lower face and jawline.
The process begins by meeting with Dr. Antoniak as well
as one of his nurses. Our team approach within the clinic
allows for continuity of care from the initial consultation,
to the surgery and throughout the healing process. The surgery
itself may be performed either at the Riverside Hospital
or in our very own accredited surgical centre at the Facial
Surgery & Cosmetic Center of Ottawa, for your utmost
discretion. During the procedure, incisions are strategically
hidden in the hair and in the creases around the ears. This
ensures minimal, barely visible scarring once healing is
complete, leaving you with a natural, long lasting, youthful
appearance with little downtime. Patients are given Arnica
Montana, a herbal preparation from the Swiss Alps, which
has been used for hundreds of years to reduce bruising and
swelling for an even more rapid recovery.
We believe that when you choose surgery, you are investing
in your future appearance. We are proud to offer patients
a complimentary skin care package specifically designed
to help support the surgery. This complimentary package
is valued at over $1,000.00 and includes a thorough skin
analysis, a personalized facial treatment, appropriate skin
care just for you, and much more!
