Tightness of facelift results controllable?

dahling1018
Looking at "before and after" photos of facelifts, I see photos of patients with not much difference between how they look before and after. In my opinion, many could have been pulled tighter. Most people do not want a "pulled", "wind tunnel" look and that is the trend of facelifts today. However, I am considering having a facelift and I would want my face to be pulled as tight and smooth as possible. Is the degree of the correction controllable and a choice?
