Enhancing size, shape, and symmetry with precision
What Is a Facelift?
A facelift, also known as rhytidectomy, is a facial rejuvenation procedure designed to reduce visible signs of aging in the lower face and neck. The surgery addresses sagging skin, deep folds, jowls, and loss of definition along the jawline. Dr. Shamoun performs facelift surgery to help patients:
Tighten sagging facial skin
Improve jawline definition
Reduce deep creases and folds
Address jowls and lower-face heaviness
Restore a smoother, more youthful contour
Each facelift in Dubai is customized to enhance your natural features while avoiding an overly tight or artificial appearance.

Determining If Facial Enhancement Is Right for You
Who Is a Facelift For?
A facelift in Dubai may be ideal for individuals experiencing moderate to advanced signs of facial aging. The procedure is designed for patients who want long-term facial rejuvenation rather than temporary improvement.
You may be a good candidate if you:
Have sagging skin in the lower face
Notice jowls or loss of jawline definition
Have deep folds around the mouth and nose
Experience loose skin in the neck area
Are in good overall health
Have realistic expectations about results
Some patients may benefit from combining a facelift with eyelid surgery, brow lift, or non-surgical treatments for more comprehensive rejuvenation. During your consultation, Dr. Shamoun will evaluate your anatomy and goals to recommend the most effective treatment plan.
What to Expect After Facial Enhancement
Facelift Recovery and Results
Facelift results are visible once swelling begins to subside, revealing a smoother, firmer, and more youthful facial contour. Patients often notice improved jawline definition and a refreshed appearance without looking overdone. Final results continue to refine over several weeks to months as swelling resolves and tissues settle naturally.
How to Heal Smoothly and Protect Your Results
Following post-operative instructions is essential for optimal healing and long-lasting results. Dr. Shamoun provides detailed guidance, which may include:
Rest: Keep your head elevated during early recovery
Incision Care: Keep incision sites clean and protected
Activity: Avoid strenuous movement for several weeks
Hydration & Nutrition: Maintain a balanced diet and hydration
Medication: Take prescribed medications as directed
Avoid: Smoking and alcohol during recovery
Follow-Up: Attend all scheduled post-operative visits
Sleep: Rest on your back, slightly elevated.
