title: Facelifts: a contemporary perspective.
abstract: The premium that our society has placed on youthful appearance has driven an ever increasing number of patients to seek facial rejuvenation. As the demand for these procedures has increased so has the expectation that these procedures can be performed more safely while ultimately delivering a more natural appearance than has historically been possible. More focused (and often times less invasive) procedures have been developed to better serve the needs of our patients.
