Facelift: Then and Now The SMAS-lift is the most commonly performed facelift technique today. In addition to the skin flap facelift and SMAS technique, the evolution of modern techniques includes the deep-plane facelift, subperiosteal facelift, endoscopic facelift and others. Each of these methods has its noted proponents, but nowhere has it been conclusively shown that any one technique is superior. Despite the ongoing controversy, there are at least a couple of points that most plastic surgeons agree on.

ADVANCES IN FACELIFT PROCEDURES ADD YOUTH AND BEAUTY Traditionally, facelifts focused on tightening the skin in the neck and jawline. Recently, significant attention and debate has focused on the central portion of the face, often called the midface. Four Studies presented.
Featherlift More and more women, especially younger patients who do not have a lot of sagging, are turning to new minimally invasive lifting procedures that entail smaller incisions and can be performed using local anesthesia.
Short Scar Facelift A short scar face-lift is a limited incision lift which gives patients the same results as the traditional procedure. The surgery performed beneath the skin remains unchanged, but the incision made is about half the length of that made in a traditional lift.
The Mid Face Lift In the past, cosmetic facial surgery has concentrated on concerns of the forehead and eyelids (the upper third of the face) with procedures such as browlifts and eyelid lifts. Jowls and turkey neck of the jaw and neckline (the lower third of the face) were corrected with facelifts and necklifts. But until the mid face lift was developed recently, there had been no technique to adequately address the multi-faceted changes that occur in the middle of the face, leaving a tired and aged appearance despite the best efforts to improve one's look.
SMAS Facelift This technique repositions skin and the underlying muscle of the cheek to more adequately correct jowls and skin laxity which allows for a less "pulled" look and longer lasting results than a skin-only facelift.
Surgically placed 'sling' reduces signs of aging in the neck A thin, plastic "sling" surgically placed under the skin beneath the skin and jaws helps reduce the saggy appearance of the neck that results from aging, according to an article in the November/December issue of The Archives of Facial Plastic Surgery, one of the JAMA/Archives journals.

Facial Expression and Eyebrow Position Do you look happy? sad? tired? angry? Have you ever wondered how you know what another person’s mood is just by looking at his or her face? Studies have shown that one instantaneously and subconsciously makes a determination of another person’s mood just by glancing at the position and appearance of both the eyebrows and mouth.
