Feeling Self-Conscious About Aging Skin?
At Rishik Cosmetic Sciences, we understand how aging skin can impact your confidence and overall well-being. That’s why we offer advanced rhytidectomy (facelift) treatments, designed to help you achieve a youthful and rejuvenated appearance.
What is Rhytidectomy?
Rhytidectomy, commonly known as a facelift, is a surgical procedure that reduces the visible signs of aging in the face and neck. This procedure can address concerns such as sagging skin, deep creases, and loss of muscle tone, helping you achieve a more youthful and refreshed look.
Who is a Good Candidate?
Ideal candidates for rhytidectomy are individuals who:
- Are physically healthy.
- Have realistic expectations about the outcome.
- Are non-smokers or willing to quit smoking before and after the surgery.
- Have visible signs of facial aging, such as sagging skin, deep creases, or loss of muscle tone.
Our Technology
At Rishik Cosmetic Sciences, we use state-of-the-art technology and techniques to ensure the highest precision and safety during your rhytidectomy procedure. Our advanced tools and methods allow for more accurate results and a quicker recovery time.
The Procedure
Consultation
During your initial consultation, our expert surgeons will evaluate your facial structure and discuss your goals. This is a crucial step to ensure that you have realistic expectations and to develop a personalized treatment plan.
Preparation
You’ll receive detailed instructions on how to prepare for the surgery, including any necessary medical tests and guidelines for eating, drinking, and medication.
Surgery
The procedure typically takes several hours and is performed under general anesthesia. During the surgery, the surgeon will make incisions around the hairline and ears to access the underlying tissues, which are then repositioned and tightened.
Recovery
Most patients can return to work and normal activities within 2-4 weeks. Swelling and bruising are common but subside over time. You’ll need to follow specific post-operative care instructions to ensure optimal healing.
Benefits of Rhytidectomy

- Long-Lasting Results: Provides results that can last for many years, especially with proper skincare and maintenance.
- Natural-Looking Outcome: Modern techniques ensure a natural and balanced appearance, avoiding the “overdone” look.
