Enhance Your Facial Glow With A Rhytidectomy

What Is A Facelift?

Don’t let the signs of aging define you. Instead, reclaim your youthful glow and confidence with Rhytidectomy, the ultimate solution for a rejuvenated and refreshed look. Also known as a facelift, this procedure removes excess skin and fat from the face and neck, tightens the underlying muscles, and repositions facial features to restore a youthful appearance. Furthermore, this procedure can be done through either an open or closed surgery.

At Zion Plastic Surgery, our team of skilled and certified surgeons is committed to helping you achieve the best version of yourself through the transformative effects of Rhytidectomy. Our surgeons take the time to listen to your concerns and goals, thereby creating a customized treatment plan that addresses your specific needs, ensuring natural-looking results that enhance your features.

Additionally, there are several variations of facelifts, differing by size, placement, amount of incisions, procedure process, and results. For instance, the thread lift, also called an APTOS thread lift or a suture suspension facelift, is the least invasive type of procedure. It involves using a thread to tighten the skin and is performed in our fully accredited surgical facility. Moreover, some people may not achieve an ideal result from solely Rhytidectomy – and that’s okay. A facelift can be combined with a Brow Lift, Eyelid Surgery, Neck Lift, etc.

My wife had surgery 3 months ago with Dr. Marshall. She had a lipo 360 with a bbl and her results are wonderful.

I want to share my excellent experience with Zion Plastic Surgery Clinic. From the very beginning, the customer service was outstanding. Everyone on the team is highly professional, including Jackie at the front desk, who was always kind and efficient. I especially want to highlight Yasmine Garcia, my first point of contact at Zion. Her kindness and professionalism gave me the confidence I needed. She was always available to answer all my questions, and thanks to her, I decided to proceed with my surgery at Zion. The costs of the procedures are very reasonable. I had a tummy tuck, and I couldn’t be happier with the results and the recovery process. Dr. Marshall and anesthesiologist Juan Ojeda did an amazing job. Additionally, the post-operative care was exceptional. I also want to recognize the work of the massage therapists Judith and Ailén, who handled my post-operative massages. They are very professional, kind, and truly help speed up the recovery process. I highly recommend Zion. My experience exceeded all my expectations.
