Providing Full Facelift Surgery in Sydney
An SMAS facelift, otherwise known as a full facelift is suitable for patients with a saggy neck and jowls. The SMAS (Superficial Musculo-Aponeurotic System) is a layer of muscle and fibrous tissue than runs from the neck into the face, and fuses to the cheekbones and the scalp. During a SMAS facelift, the skin is separated from the SMAS layer. The SMAS is dissected and tightened, so that the patient gets a full, lifted result that is long lasting. Any excess skin is also trimmed and redraped.

A facelift is a procedure designed to remove advanced signs of aging and give you back your youthful appearance. Facelifts are individually customised to each patient depending on their requirements and no two faces are the same. The way the surgery is performed also varies, depending on the required outcome. Dr Tew will go over all of the available options during your facelift consultation.
An SMAS facelift can improve otherwise permanent signs of aging such as:
- Sagging jowls around the face
- Sagging in the mid facial area (cheeks)
- Fat that has fallen lower on the face
- Loose skin and fat deposits underneath the chin and neck
- Deep creases caused by pulling of excess skin around the mouth
- Deep creases below the lower eyelids (may also benefit from Eyelid Surgery)
If you have been considering a facelift, schedule a consultation with Dr Tew at our Sydney facility. We will then determine together whether you are a good candidate for the surgery and which type of facelift could suit you.
