The saying goes that men only look better with age. While that is mostly true, there are some negative effects of aging – namely excess and sagging skin around the face. A male facelift is designed to restore the masculine contour and appearance of youth in the mid-face, jowls and neck.

A male facelift, also known as rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic procedure designed to help men achieve a more youthful-looking appearance, mirroring the vibrance they feel inside. The procedure involves removing excess skin and fat from the face and neck area in order to reduce wrinkles and other signs of aging. Additionally, it can be used to contour the jawline and neck for a more masculine look. It’s important to note that this type of procedure is not intended to dramatically change one’s overall facial structure; rather, its goal is simply to define a masculine contour, restore lost volume and smooth out fine lines and wrinkles. Male facelifts can often be combined with other treatments such as brow lifts, eyelid surgery and facial implants for even better results when needed.
By choosing a specialist, such as triple board-certified surgeon Dr. Raj Ambay, you can be assured of all the benefits of a facelift, along with the natural, aesthetically pleasing results. He’s honed his skills throughout his decades of experience in the Wesley Chapel, Tampa area and beyond. Some of these expected benefits include:
The facelift is performed with carefully placed incisions. These are made at the hairline, extending just inside the crease at the front of the ear, back behind the ear and then horizontally into the hairline. The incisions are carefully hidden in your hairline to eliminate the tell-tale signs of a facelift. Some excess skin may be removed, and the rest is redraped naturally without pulling to produce a natural, youthful appearance.
During the procedure, Dr. Ambay considers the unique anatomical structures of the male face. Men typically have a more pronounced bone structure, including a stronger jawline and prominent cheekbones, which must be preserved and enhanced. The facelift reinforces these masculine features and avoids an overly smooth appearance that might detract from the natural ruggedness of the male face. Special attention is given to maintaining the natural contour of the jawline and chin, as well as the positioning of the incisions to avoid disrupting facial hair growth patterns.
With Dr. Ambay’s surgical expertise, you can rest assured you won’t leave surgery with the unnaturally ‘pulled’ look, wide mouth or other oddities often associated with less experienced facelift surgeons. The recovery process is short, pain is minimal and can take place in the comfort of your own home.
A male facelift can help you look younger and more refreshed, but it’s important to remember that the procedure comes with risks. Facelift surgery recovery can take 1-2 weeks. It’s important to follow Dr. Ambay’s recovery instructions during this time to ensure the best possible outcome.
Immediately following the procedure, you may experience swelling, bruising and some discomfort that can be managed with over-the-counter pain medications, or medications prescribed by Dr. Ambay just for you. You should also plan to avoid strenuous activity while healing takes place so you do not disrupt the results of the surgery, or lengthen the recovery process.
Additionally, make sure you attend all post-op appointments. Dr. Ambay can do post-op monitoring in-person, by video, email or telephone. We give you the choice to offer the greatest level of convenience. Many issues can be resolved by having access to Dr. Ambay, even if it is a simple question on a weekend or holiday. With proper care and attention throughout the process, you can enjoy lasting results from your facelift for many years to come.
Men often seek this procedure to address concerns such as a sagging jawline, midface droop, excess neck skin, and deep creases around the mouth. If you have noticed these changes and wish to restore a firmer, more defined profile while maintaining a natural masculine appearance, a facelift could be a great option. You should also be in good general health and have realistic expectations. Contact us today for a complimentary consultation.

The cost of a facelift for men can vary based on factors like the complexity of the procedure and the surgeon’s experience. Men’s facelifts often require additional considerations, such as adapting to facial hair and masculine features, which can influence the cost. Dr. Ambay will provide a detailed estimate during your consultation, including any additional procedures needed and financing options available. All costs will be transparently presented to you at the time of consultation along with financing options.

While the risks of a facelift are generally similar for both men and women, men may have specific concerns related to facial hair. Incisions are carefully placed to avoid disrupting natural hairlines and sideburns. Additionally, men might experience different healing patterns due to thicker skin and facial structure. Dr. Ambay’s expertise ensures that these factors are considered to minimize risks and achieve optimal results.
Facelift recovery for men and women is similar, but men may experience more swelling and bruising due to facial hair and skin thickness. Male facial features, like sideburns and beard areas, require careful attention during the healing process.
A facelift can help improve the overall appearance of the face, but it does not directly treat hair loss. For men with receding hairlines or thinning hair, discuss treatments like hair restoration with Dr. Ambay for a comprehensive approach to addressing these concerns.
Facelift surgery can impact sideburns, particularly if they are positioned near incision sites. Dr. Ambay carefully plans incisions to minimize any effect on your sideburns, ensuring they remain natural-looking and aligned with your desired outcome.
If you’re not ready for facelift surgery, there are several non-surgical options available to rejuvenate your male facial profile. Dr. Ambay offers a variety of non-surgical treatments such as injectable dermal fillers and Botox to address volume loss, fine lines, and wrinkles. Non-surgical skin tightening procedures like radiofrequency or ultrasound therapy can also enhance firmness and smoothness.
Facelifts for men prioritize preserving masculine features like a strong jawline and defined chin, while rejuvenation may involve less invasive treatments focused on refreshing the overall appearance.
