Surgical Treatments
Facelift (Rhytidectomy)
- Surgical procedure to remove excess skin and tighten underlying tissues.
- Provides long-lasting and significant results.
Neck Lift

- Often combined with a facelift for comprehensive rejuvenation.
Lifestyle and Home Care
Topical Treatments
- Products containing retinoids, peptides, and antioxidants can help improve skin firmness over time.
- Regular use of sunscreen to protect against collagen breakdown caused by UV exposure.
Healthy Lifestyle Choices
