At Annapolis Plastic Surgery, you can expect to receive personalized care and attention from a highly qualified and friendly staff in a comfortable, private out-patient setting. A facelift is a surgical procedure that is used to lift and tighten sagging skin from the cheeks, jawline and chin. Severna Park, MD area facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Bryan Ambro, offers several types of procedures, depending on your goals. The skin on the face may start to sag for a number of reasons including thinning of the skin, fat loss in the face, gravity, too much sun exposure, smoking, and stress. But aging of the face is inevitable and your skin will begin to loosen no matter how well you take care of your skin. You may consider a facelift if:
- You begin to look older than you feel
- You feel your sagging facial skin is interfering with your social or professional life
- You have facial sagging but still have some skin elasticity
Who is a good candidate for a Facelift?
Dr. Ambro will require you to be in good health, have a realistic outlook on the results, and have an overall positive attitude about the facelift procedure. As leading facial plastic surgeon in the Severna Park, MD area, Dr. Ambro can successfully correct the following facial characteristics with a facelift:
- Creases from nose to corner of mouth
- Fallen or displaced face fat

About the Facelift Procedure
Facelift surgery is performed by Dr. Ambro in our private surgery center at Anne Arundel Medical Center near Severna Park, MD. Dr. Ambro will make an incision around the ear and below the chin. The skin is gently raised to reposition and tighten the underlying muscle and connective tissue to achieve a natural looking contour and lift. A mini facelift involves removing the skin in front of the lower ear and neck.
