Important things to know post facelift surgery

With so much information out there about facelifts and facelift alternatives, separating fact from fiction can be difficult. To help you find the accurate answers you're looking for, here are the answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about getting a facelift, from how to tell if a facelift could be right for you in the best way to achieve long-lasting results.

What is a facelift?

“Facelift”: Often, we use the term “facelift” to refer to a combined “facelift & necklift” surgery. This is a facial rejuvenation surgery that helps restore a youthful appearance to your face and your neck.

What can a facelift do for me?

Facelift & neck lift surgery will provide you with a natural but tighter, firmer, and fresher appearance. The goal of surgery is to leave you looking like a more youthful version of yourself without appearing “overdone” or artificial.

Are there any other procedures that can be combined with a facelift procedure?

In patients with small or “weak” chins, we often suggest combining a chin augmentation procedure with their facelift. This can provide a more ideal frame on which to re-drape skin and underlying tissue, resulting in a more aesthetically-pleasing profile.

How long will facelift results last?

Although no plastic surgeon can guarantee the precise length your results will last, the effects of most facelifts typically last for years before a touch-up might be needed. To prolong your results even further, try to stay out of the sun, wear sunscreen, eat a healthy diet and talk to a skincare professional about which products are right for your skin.
