Age Reduction After Face-Lift Surgery in Chinese Population: An Outcome Study Using Artificial Intelligence and Objective Observer-Based Assessment.

Background: The literature is replete with favorable face-lift results, yet the objective facial rejuvenation outcome measures in Chinese women have remained poorly understood.

Objective: The purpose of the study is to objectively evaluate the apparent age (AA) reduction in Chinese women following face-lift by artificial intelligence (AI) and objective observers.

Methods: Standardized pre- and postoperative (1-year) images of 48 patients undergoing face-lift procedures were analyzed by AI to estimate AA.
