title: Facelifting: anatomical considerations.
abstract: Facelifting techniques continue to evolve as our understanding of facial aging improves. Improved technology to affect changes on skin for tightening and volume restoration with fat grafting or fillers have improved results and safety for our patients. Success with facelifting and facial rejuvenation requires an understanding of the underlying anatomy and allows restoration of the anatomy to the younger more youthful status while avoiding complications.
