What Is a Ponytail Lift?

A ponytail lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to provide a lifted, tightening effect similar to a traditional facelift. This innovative technique involves making small incisions behind the hairline and tightening facial tissues using sutures. The procedure allows patients to wear their hair in a ponytail style without visible scarring, offering a natural and rejuvenated appearance.
