As people age, the effects of gravity, exposure to the sun, and the stresses of daily life can be seen in their faces. Deep creases form between the nose and mouth; the jawline grows slack and jowly; folds and fat deposits appear around the neck.

As board certified Waco plastic surgeon Dr. Rude goes on to point out, while face lift surgery (also called rhytidectomy) cannot stop the aging process, the clock can be turned back a bit. This is done by improving "the most visible signs" of aging; removing certain fat deposits, tightening the underlying muscles, and repositioning the skin.

Obviously, surgery is not for everyone, and there are risks to be thoughtfully and carefully considered. A consultation with Dr. Rude could help you decide if rhytidectomy is right for you.
