Facelift Surgery in Ireland
As we age, fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin are all natural signs of getting older, but they can sometimes leave us feeling older than we actually are. A facelift, also known as a Rhytidectomy, is a popular cosmetic procedure that helps reverse these signs of ageing. It removes excess skin and tightens facial muscles to restore a fresher, more youthful look that reflects how you feel inside. Many people across Ireland choose a facelift to regain their confidence and achieve a naturally rejuvenated appearance.

About Facelift Surgery (Rhytidectomy)
During a traditional facelift, your surgeon will make an incision starting at the hairline, running along the front of your ears and continuing into the hairline behind the ears. These carefully placed incisions ensure scars are hidden within your hair or blend naturally into your facial contours. Once the incision is made, the skin is gently separated from the underlying tissue, and facial muscles are tightened. Any excess skin is removed, and fine stitches are applied to complete the procedure.
For suitable candidates, facelifts can be safely carried out under local anaesthetic in our state-of-the-art, HIQA-regulated clinic in Dublin, Ireland.
