Eternal youth. Many dream of it but it remains out of reach. So, failing to have found the fountain of youth, some French are betting on the facelift. A cosmetic surgery operation that has become part of our languages and our solutions to fight against the passage of time. But at the microphone of the show Well done for youDoctor Alexandre Marchac talks about the alternatives to the operation and the ideal age to take the plunge.
Think about the alternatives
Because before starting, other solutions can help you maintain your skin and delay the operation. “Before that, there are plenty of things to do,” explains the beauty columnist. “We can first start by compensating for the loss of volume (of the skin). And then we have machines, in particular to tighten the tissues a little or even mini facelifts, which are very minimally invasive,” he notes. -he.
But nothing “remains more effective than a facelift,” says Dr. Alexandre Marchac. “We even see a real revival of the facelift. Firstly because there is nothing more effective and it is very clearly what will best redraw the oval of the face and the neck. And then because this method has progressed and there have been real developments”, he underlines.
Get fit in your head
Developments benefit customers, provided they are in the right age bracket. “Ideally, you have to think about it between 50 and 60 years old, when you start to see a real jowl appear, or a neck that relaxes.” And before taking the plunge, Alexandre Marchac takes stock of the checkboxes to experience the operation in the best possible way.
“A facelift needs to be prepared, it’s not an intervention that you do on a whim like that. So educate yourself, don’t hesitate to compare the different approaches. And then, for it to happen well, you have to be in good shape in your head, because you don’t operate on someone who is depressed,” he concludes.
