TLDR The delta lift offers a more natural-looking facelift with fewer side effects.
The delta lift was a modification of the S-lift for facial rejuvenation that aimed to avoid the masklike appearance, earlobe deformities, and hair loss associated with conventional face lifts. It involved limited skin excision and tightening of the superficial muscular aponeurotic system, resulting in a more youthful look without the complications of more extensive procedures. This method could also be combined with other facial rejuvenation techniques.
