'MACS Lift' a more Youthful Reflection

An MACS lift is a facial rejuvenation technique that offers an alternative to more extensive procedures. The S Lift is perhaps the fore runner of the more detailed procedure. These newer procedures result in a natural toned fresher and more youthful expression to the lower face, jowls and neck and now due to advances of the MACS lift a rejuvenation of the eye area can be achieved.

The MACS-Lift is rapidly gaining popularity among patients and surgeons. It is a full facelift that can be performed with local or general anesthesia often as an outpatient basis. The operation can be completed in two hours, and most patients return to normal activity within two weeks. Its minimal duration makes it both safe and practical for use in conjunction with laser resurfacing and other facial cosmetic procedures. This remarkably effective technique is minimal in every way, resulting in a shorter scar, reduced morbidity, and few complications...

Why the MACS Lift?

Advantages of the limited incision lifts over traditional facelift procedures include:

• Smaller incisions
• Less anaesthesia
• Less analgesics
• There is virtually no bleeding
• Reduced bruising following surgery
• Recovery is rapid
• More natural appearance following surgery than many traditional facelift procedures
• Can be performed with other minimal procedures for optimum results
• Degree of risks reduced
