Why do we love it?
A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a comprehensive surgical procedure designed to address the visible signs of aging in the face and neck. This procedure targets issues such as deep wrinkles, sagging skin, and jowls by tightening the underlying muscles and removing excess skin. The result is a smoother, firmer appearance that significantly rejuvenates your overall facial contour. The procedure can be customized to address specific concerns, whether it's the lower face, mid-face, or neck.
One of the key advantages of a facelift is its ability to provide long-lasting results. While non-surgical treatments like fillers and wrinkle relaxers offer temporary improvements, a facelift addresses the underlying causes of aging, delivering more comprehensive and enduring rejuvenation. With proper care and maintenance, the results of a facelift can last for many years, allowing you to enjoy a youthful and refreshed appearance well into the future.

Achieve Long-Lasting Facial Rejuvenation
Getting older is a blessing, but it can feel like a burden if you find your confidence shaken by the signs of aging. If you’re seeking a transformative solution to combat aging’s physical symptoms, a deep plane facelift at Fulcrum Aesthetics offers comprehensive rejuvenation, unlike any other procedure. This advanced technique lifts and tightens the deeper structures of the face, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed appearance. Led by Dr. David Hill, the expert Fulcrum Aesthetics team combines artistic precision with medical expertise to deliver stunning results that enhance your natural beauty.
What Is a Deep Plane Facelift?
A deep plane facelift is a sophisticated surgical procedure designed to address advanced signs of facial aging by targeting the deeper layers of facial tissues. Unlike traditional facelifts, which primarily focus on tightening the skin, a deep plane facelift lifts and repositions the underlying muscles and connective tissues, including the SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System). This approach provides more comprehensive and long-lasting results by restoring the face’s natural contours, reducing sagging, and improving overall facial harmony. The deep plane technique offers a more youthful, refreshed appearance with a minimized risk of visible scarring and more natural-looking results.

Rediscover the Elegance of a Youthful Neck
As we age, the neck is often one of the first areas to show signs of aging, such as sagging skin, muscle banding, and excess fat deposits. It’s natural to feel self-conscious about these changes. Fortunately, a neck lift in Chicago at Fulcrum Aesthetics can effectively address these concerns, restoring a youthful and refined neckline
A neck lift, also known as a lower rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to enhance the appearance of the neck and jawline. It addresses issues such as excess skin, fat, and muscle laxity in the neck area, which can result from aging, weight fluctuations, or genetic factors. During the procedure, a surgeon removes or repositions excess skin and fat and tightens the underlying muscles to achieve a smoother, more defined neck contour. The goal is to create a youthful and natural-looking neckline that harmonizes with the rest of the face.
A neck lift can be performed alone or with other facial procedures, such as a facelift, to achieve comprehensive rejuvenation.
Neck Lift vs. Platysmaplasty: Which is Right For You?
When considering anti-aging neck surgery, patients frequently encounter the terms "neck lift" and "platysmaplasty." These terms are often used together or interchangeably, which can create some confusion about what each procedure involves and how it differs.
Neck Lift
A neck lift is a cosmetic surgery that addresses sagging, loose skin, and wrinkles around the neck area to reduce signs of aging. It is commonly performed alongside a facelift, sharing similar incisions around the ears, and is designed to improve the overall contour of the neck and jawline. The term "neck lift" generally refers to removing excess skin to create a more youthful and smooth appearance.
Platysmaplasty
Platysmaplasty, on the other hand, focuses specifically on tightening the platysma muscle, a thin sheet of muscle located under the skin of the neck. Tightening this muscle helps enhance the results of a neck lift by improving neck definition and reducing the appearance of vertical banding, often associated with aging. While most neck lifts include platysmaplasty for optimal results, the two are technically distinct procedures.
