Age-related changes of the skin and the body, despite the best efforts of cosmetologists, to "invent" new tools designed to slow the aging process, is inevitable. Over the years, the skin loses its firmness and elasticity, the contours of even the most perfect figure blurred, losing the natural beauty and shape of the breast. It was in this situation comes to the aid of plastic - a complex operation designed to correct age-related changes. Smas lifting - is one of many varieties of plastic surgery aimed at correcting the shape of the face and lift sagging due to age-related changes of the skin.

Smas plastic helps in the following cases:

• When the deep, distinct facial wrinkles
• When the nasolabial folds
• When the "double chin"
• If you lose the clear contours of the face

The procedure itself is conducted smas lifting, usually under general anesthesia, but if the correction requires specific areas of the face - for example, the upper part of the face - the operation can be performed under local anesthesia. Scars, the inevitable consequences of plastic, there is no fear: first, they are placed in the least visible areas (behind the ears, and scalp), so do not catch the eye, and, secondly, over time, become practically imperceptible. As a rule, the complete disappearance of scars requires about six to twelve months.

Since smas lifting - a rather complicated procedure, after the lifting need some time to spend in the hospital (generally about two to three days). Moreover, after the lifting smas need to make a few bandages, and return to normal life and work can be no sooner than two to three weeks.

First of all, be aware that smas lifting is not for every woman, this procedure can not be performed in certain diseases of internal organs, infectious and oncological diseases. In addition, like any other surgery, smas lifting is not recommended, provided poor blood clotting.

Perhaps one of the main advantages smas lifting - is resistance to achieve results: while, in fact, the procedure to change the very structure of the surface tissues, strengthens muscular frame and adjusts the shape of the face, smas lifting operates as efficiently as possible, and the result achieved is maintained for as long as possible - ten or fifteen years. Thus the net effect of lifting smas recommended to evaluate at once, as is the case with normal skin tightening, and after some time - usually about four to eight months after the implementation of direct lifting.
