Una ritidectomía es un procedimiento en el cual la piel de la cara es tensionada para darle al rostro del paciente una apariencia más juvenil. Debido al envejecimiento y la gravedad, la piel de la cara de una persona tiende a colgarse y a sentirse flácida. Este es el momento en el cual la cirugía de estiramiento facial se vuelve una gran opción para verse más joven. 5, record 1, Spanish, - ritidectom%C3%ADa

La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, desaconseja el uso de la voz inglesa "lifting" en el sentido de "estiramiento facial". 3, record 1, Spanish, - ritidectom%C3%ADa
