Parotidectomy is the surgical removal of part or all of the parotid gland, often due to tumors or cysts, while a facelift addresses sagging facial skin. When performed together, careful planning is necessary to avoid nerve damage and ensure both functional and aesthetic results.

Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common benign salivary gland tumor, typically found in the parotid gland. It grows slowly and is usually painless, but surgical removal is recommended to prevent complications or potential malignant transformation over time.
