Our generated misspelling index lists 12 likely wrong-spelling variants for Facelift, with forms such as "afcelift", "faccelift", and "faceilft". Every one of these variants traces to a single-character edit -- an added or dropped letter, a swapped consonant, or a vowel swap -- the kind of slip a spell-checker is built to catch. Our dataset records no confusable match here, since its spelling is unusual enough that it doesn't cluster with a lookalike.
