Nasal folds are a result of excess skin of the face due to loss of volume of fat and collagen. When the face deflates, folds appear at the nasal folds, marionettes and jowls along the neckline. Face Lifts re-drape the skin on the face and the excess skin is surgically removed.
The Face Lift can reduce nasal folds, marionettes and jowls to the extent of how far the surgeon can “undermine” the skin to reach those areas to tighten the skin on the face.
In surgery, healing is dependent on the amount of circulation available at the skin edge or flap edges. The longer the flap as in the case of a facelift, the less blood flow to the edges; so elevating the flap beyond the nasolabial fold may cause skin edge complications. Edge complications can cause poor healing. The state of the person’s health and lifestyles also determines how aggressive the doctor will want to undermine the face. A person who has been smoking for years would not be a good candidate for invasive type face lifts.
