Face lift (9)
I believe the answer is:
elevation
This clue might be a double definition.
'face' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I can't see?
'lift' is the second definition.
(I know that lift can be written as elevation)
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for elevation that I've seen before include "Height - a live note (anag)" , "Architectural drawing" , "scale drawing" , "Height above a given level" , "plan" .)
