Why Choose Male Facelift Surgery
A male facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure that reduces signs of aging in the face and neck. This procedure tightens sagging skin, removes excess fat, and enhances facial contours, providing a more youthful and refreshed appearance. Male facelift surgery might be the solution you’ve been looking for:
- Customized for Masculine Features: The surgery enhances masculine facial structures, restoring firmness to the jawline, reducing sagging skin, and diminishing deep wrinkles, all while preserving the natural ruggedness and character of the male face.
- Reverses Signs of Aging: It effectively addresses common aging signs in men, such as jowls, neck laxity, and deep facial creases, offering a more vibrant and energetic appearance without altering fundamental facial expressions.
- Enhancing Natural Features: A male facelift enhances masculine features by refining jawlines, reducing jowls, and lifting sagging cheeks, improving your natural appearance.
Who is a Male Facelift Candidate?
Men who want to reverse the signs of aging and achieve a more youthful, refreshed appearance are the best candidates for a male facelift. Men who are suitable candidates for a facelift typically have one or more of the following traits:
- Sagging Facial Skin: Men experiencing sagging skin on the face or neck, leading to a tired or aged appearance, may benefit from a facelift.
- Loss of Facial Contour: Those who have noticed a decrease in the definition of their facial features, such as jawline and cheekbones, due to aging or weight loss.
- Deep Wrinkles: A facelift may benefit those who want to appear younger but have deep wrinkles around the mouth, nose, and forehead.
- Jowls or Double Chin: A facelift can effectively reduce the appearance of jowls and a double chin, providing a sharper, more masculine jawline.
- Facial Asymmetry: Men who want to correct minor asymmetries in their facial structure are also good candidates for this procedure.

Types of Face Lift Methods
Incisions are made in the hairline, around the ears, and possibly under the chin to remove excess skin and tighten underlying tissues. It’s ideal for those with significant sagging and deep wrinkles.
Targeting signs of aging, the mini facelift requires smaller incisions and has a shorter recovery time. It tightens the skin and the superficial muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS) layer of the lower face and neck.
Mid-Facelift
Enhances the cheeks and lower eyelids, addressing deep creases and volume loss in the mid-face area. This technique often involves incisions similar to a traditional facelift but focuses on lifting the mid-face.
Concentrates on the lower third of the face, improving jowls, marionette lines, and chin sagging. The incisions are made around the ears and hairline to tighten the skin and underlying tissues in this area.
Involves tightening the SMAS layer, which covers, surrounds, and attaches to the deeper facial structures. This technique lifts and repositions the facial muscles for a more natural and long-lasting result.
Goes deeper than the SMAS facelift, targeting the tissues below the SMAS layer. This method is effective for addressing nasolabial folds and sagging cheeks, offering more dramatic rejuvenation.
A minimally invasive alternative that uses temporary, dissolvable threads to lift and tighten the facial skin. It offers a quicker recovery and can be a good option for those with mild sagging.
Uses shorter incisions compared to a traditional facelift. Sutures are used to lift the tissues, focusing on the lower face and neck. It is for those seeking less invasive options with a shorter recovery period.

Aftercare Instructions for Male Facelift Surgery
Proper aftercare is crucial for the best results and painless recovery after a male facelift. The following are crucial recommendations for post-operative care:
-
Wound Care
Keep the surgical incisions clean and dry as per your surgeon's instructions. This may involve applying lotion and changing dressings regularly to promote healing. -
Support Garments
Wear a supportive compression garment or dressing recommended by your surgeon. This helps minimize swelling and provides support to the newly sculpted facial contours. -
Medications
To control pain and avoid infection, take prescription medications, such as antibiotics and pain relievers, exactly as prescribed. -
Activity Restrictions
Avoid heavy lifting and limit vigorous activity for two weeks after surgery or as long as your surgeon recommends. -
Sleeping Position
Keep your head elevated and lie on your side or back while you sleep to minimize swelling and pressure points at your facial incisions. -
Give up Smoking
Avoid smoking for at least four weeks before and after surgery, as it may interfere with the healing process. To reduce your risk, avoid drinking alcohol for three days before and after surgery. -
Follow-Up Visits
Keep track of all subsequent visits with your surgeon to ensure the best outcome and recovery.

How does Dr. McRae tailor the facelift procedure for each patient?
How does a male facelift differ from a facelift for women?
Male facelift surgery is tailored to preserve and enhance masculine features while addressing signs of aging. Men’s skin is typically thicker and has a richer blood supply, which can affect healing. Additionally, incisions are placed to accommodate facial hair patterns, and the procedure emphasizes restoring a strong jawline and chin, which are key markers of male facial aesthetics.
Who is an ideal candidate for a male facelift?
Ideal candidates are men who are experiencing moderate to severe facial aging, such as sagging skin, deep wrinkles, and jowls, that cannot be fully corrected with non-surgical treatments. Candidates should be in good general health, non-smokers, or willing to quit, and have realistic expectations about the surgery’s outcomes.
What is the recovery time for a male facelift?
Recovery time varies by individual but generally, patients can return to normal activities within 2 to 3 weeks. Swelling and bruising are common and may last several weeks. Following your surgeon’s post-operative care instructions is crucial for a smooth recovery and optimal results.
How do Dr. Mark and Matthew McRae approach aesthetic surgery?
They believe in a minimalist approach that yields the maximum results, focusing on the least number of interventions to achieve the desired aesthetic goal.
