Restoring the harmony of the face: When the previous facelift is not enough

In the field of plastic surgery of the face, one often finds oneself in front of patients who have already faced interventions in the past, but who are not fully satisfied with the duration or the naturalness of the result. It is the case of Annalisa, 56 years old, who presented an early sagging after a repositioning of the eyebrows and a blepharoplasty with improvable scarring outcomes.


Prof. Alessandro Gualdi underlines a fundamental concept: “Human tissues are dynamic, they are not reinforced concrete“. For this reason, the surgical strategy must aim at a deep repositioning that respects the individual anatomy.

The Solution: Brow Lift and Preservation Facelift

To respond to the needs of Annalisa, Prof. Gualdi opted for a synergistic combination of advanced techniques:

  1. Brow Lift: To reopen the gaze and correct the position of the eyebrow arch, fundamental for those who seek an effective technique of blepharoplasty in Milan without necessarily intervening again on the eyelids.
  2. Preservation Facelift: This innovative method allows acting on the deep tissues minimizing the trauma. It is a choice of excellence for those who seek a face lift in Milan that guarantees naturalness and rapid recovery times.

The Result: A sharp mandibular line and invisible scars

Already at two days from the intervention, the patient manifested a great satisfaction, noting an immediate repositioning of the soft tissues. At a distance of two weeks, despite the physiological edema in the resolution phase, the results are evident:

  • Mandibular line sharp and well-defined.
  • Cervico-mental angle restored, a central objective in the neck lift.
  • Invisible scars, strategically hidden in the natural contours of the face.

The case of Annalisa demonstrates that, even in the presence of previous interventions, it is possible to rediscover one’s own authentic beauty through a surgical approach that is modern, sartorial (tailor-made), and guided by the principles of Aristotelian equilibrium that distinguish the work of Prof. Gualdi.
