Introduction
Is your face starting to show signs of sagging, deep folds, or jowls that make you look older than you feel?
Aging gracefully is a goal many aspire to, but environmental stress, gravity, and skin laxity can change how we look—often sooner than expected. A face lift, or rhytidectomy, is a specialized cosmetic procedure that lifts and tightens sagging facial tissues, restores youthful contours, and gives your face a naturally refreshed appearance. At Asteria Aesthetics Bhopal, Dr. Apoorv Loya performs advanced face lift surgery designed to bring subtle, long-lasting results with minimal downtime.
Common Causes
Facial aging isn’t just about wrinkles. It’s the combination of volume loss, sagging tissues, and skin changes that lead to a tired or aged appearance. These changes can begin as early as your 30s and progress over time.
Factors that accelerate facial aging include:
- Breakdown of collagen and elastin due to aging
- Loss of fat volume in cheeks and mid-face
- Deepening of nasolabial folds and marionette lines
- Sagging of skin and muscles, especially in the jowl area
- Sun damage, smoking, and environmental stress
- Repeated facial expressions and declining skin elasticity
Treatment Process
A face lift surgery is a tailored procedure that addresses multiple layers of the face—not just the skin. At Asteria Aesthetics, we follow a structured, precision-focused approach that ensures natural, balanced results.
Step 1: In-Depth Consultation
Description: Dr. Apoorv Loya examines your facial anatomy, skin quality, and aging pattern. He discusses your goals, lifestyle, and desired outcomes in detail.
Result: A personalized treatment plan is created, often incorporating a facelift with a neck lift or facial fat grafting.
Best For: People with moderate to severe facial sagging, jowls, or deep folds.
Step 2: Surgical Correction
Description: Under local or general anesthesia, discreet incisions are made along the hairline and behind the ears. Skin is lifted, underlying muscles are tightened, and excess fat is removed or repositioned.
Result: A smoother, firmer, and naturally contoured face with youthful definition.
Best For: Aging lower face, sagging cheeks, and loose jawline skin.
Step 3: Healing & Recovery
Description: A compression garment is used to reduce swelling. Most patients return to social activities within 10–14 days.
Result: Visible rejuvenation begins within 2 weeks and continues to improve over 1–3 months.
Best For: All skin types seeking long-term facial enhancement.
Before And After Your Face Lift Treatment at Asteria Aesthetics
Before Your Treatment
Patients often come in with concerns about facial drooping, folds, or a mismatch between how they look and how they feel. A simulation is shared to help set expectations.
During Your Treatment
You’ll undergo a carefully monitored procedure in Asteria’s OT. The surgery typically lasts 3–4 hours, depending on the extent of correction needed. Patient comfort and precision are prioritized at every step.
After Your Treatment
Initial tightness, swelling, and minor bruising are expected. Most healing occurs in the first 2–3 weeks. Final results become more defined over 6–8 weeks and can last up to 10–12 years.
Benefits Of Face Lift Surgery
Choosing a face lift is about restoring, not changing—your face. It’s one of the most powerful anti-aging procedures when done thoughtfully and artistically.
Key benefits include:
- Tighter, lifted facial skin and muscles
- Smoother cheeks and jawline
- Elimination of jowls and loose lower face skin
- Enhanced youthful appearance that still looks like “you”
- Boost in self-confidence, especially in photos and social interactions
Lifestyle Tips for Long-Lasting Results
To maintain your rejuvenated look:
- Follow your post-op care routine meticulously
- Apply sunscreen daily to protect new skin
- Stay hydrated and eat nutrient-rich foods for skin health
- Avoid smoking and excessive alcohol
- Use retinol or collagen-boosting skincare (if approved by your surgeon)
- Schedule periodic maintenance treatments like PRP or skin tightening if recommended

FAQs
Q1. Will a facelift make me look unnatural or “pulled”?
Not at all. At Asteria, our technique focuses on lifting deeper tissues, not just the skin. The result is a natural, youthful definition without that “plastic” look.
Q2. Is it painful?
Mild discomfort is normal in the first few days, but it’s well-managed with medication. Most patients describe the process as far easier than expected.
Q3. How long will the results last?
Results typically last 10–12 years. Maintenance treatments can further extend longevity.
Q4. Are there any scars?
Scars are well-hidden in natural creases (hairline, ear contour) and fade significantly over time with proper care.
Q5. Can I combine a facelift with other procedures?
Yes. Many patients combine it with a neck lift, eyelid surgery, or facial fat grafting for a complete rejuvenation.
