Vertical Facelift also known as Short Scar Facelift in Kingston,Ontario

A vertical facelift, also known as a vertical vector facelift or a vertical lift facelift, or short scar facelift, is a type of facelift that focuses on lifting and tightening the deeper tissues of the face in a vertical direction. Unlike traditional facelifts, which primarily lift the skin horizontally, a vertical facelift is designed to provide a more natural-looking result that addresses the underlying support structure of the face. During a vertical facelift, incisions are typically made along the hairline and around the ears. The surgeon then lifts and repositions the underlying muscles, fat, and connective tissue in a vertical direction, which can help to restore a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance to the mid-face and lower face. One of the key advantages of a vertical facelift is that it can produce long-lasting results that look more natural than those achieved with traditional facelift techniques. However, like any surgical procedure, a vertical facelift does carry some risks and potential complications.
