Facelift and neck lift work
- Facelift.

It also describes an endoscopic face lift through small incisions behind the hairline (facelift).
- Longevity. The page states effects can last up to 10 years depending on skin elasticity (facelift).
- Neck lift. Described as a combination of face lift and liposuction: incisions around the ears, skin pulled up and back, fat removed with a small cannula, and the platysma tightened (neck lift).
- Recovery. The facelift and neck lift pages give preparation advice (smoking, aspirin) but no recovery timeline.
- Prices. None published; the FAQ states prices are quoted only after a consultation and are made up of surgeon, facility and other fees (FAQ).
- Galleries. None for face or neck work. The site's before-and-after pages cover rhinoplasty (rhinoplasty gallery), liposuction, breast augmentation and abdominoplasty.
