Rhytidectomy covers procedures aimed at removing wrinkles and other signs of aging from the face, such as:
- Facelifts
- Brow or forehead lifts, also known as browplasty
- Cheek lifts, also known as midface lift or cheek implants
These procedures can be carried out according to many different surgical techniques and methods but usually involve removing excess facial skin and then redraping the skin that remains on the face and neck. Such invasive procedures can be risky, and if carried out negligently can cause injuries that may justify a compensation award, for instance:
- Damage to facial nerves, which can be temporary or permanent
- Skin loss, also known as necrosis, requiring a skin graft
- Infection
- Hair loss (such as alopecia) or hairline distortion
- Haematoma (blood clots)
