facelifting
Surgical wrinkle removal
Facelifting is the process of renovating or modernizing something to give it a fresher, more contemporary appearance.
The term derives from the cosmetic surgery procedure but applies broadly to buildings, vehicles, products, or brands undergoing superficial updates: The downtown district is getting a facelifting with new storefronts and street lighting.
The changes are typically aesthetic rather than structural.
