Facelift (Rhytidectomy)

Our highly skilled surgeons use advanced techniques to address signs of aging such as sagging skin, deep folds, and wrinkles, providing natural-looking results that enhance your facial contours and boost your confidence.
How does a Facelift in Nairobi work?
A facelift, or rhytidectomy, works by lifting and tightening the underlying muscles of the face to create a more youthful structure. During the procedure, excess skin is removed, and remaining skin is repositioned for a smoother appearance. The surgeon makes incisions around the hairline and behind the ears, which allows for minimal scarring. This process not only reduces the appearance of wrinkles and sagging but also restores facial definition and contour.”
What to expect during a facelift in Nairobi?
During a facelift at Avané Clinic in Nairobi, you can expect a comprehensive consultation where your surgeon will discuss your aesthetic goals and assess your facial structure. The procedure is typically performed under general anaesthesia and can take several hours, depending on the complexity. Post-surgery, you will have bandages around your face to minimise swelling and bruising. Most patients experience some discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed medication. You will receive detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.”
