Won’t more Botox have the same effect?

Non-surgical facial rejuvenation options such as Botox and fillers certainly serve their role. Although essential, these have no direct impact on the skin or underlying soft tissue. Because of this, when seeking facial rejuvenation, facelift surgery remains the option best suited to address lifting facial muscles.

A correctly performed facelift can turn back the clock 10-15 years without making you look fake, overly tight, pulled, or windswept. As a result, you will look like your rejuvenated self.

Is there such a thing as ‘liquid facelift”?

A liquid facelift is used to describe facial rejuvenation with non-surgical injectables, such as Botox and fillers. Hence, the term 'liquid' as the procedure uses dermal fillers and injections to achieve a lifted result. Volume loss is a critical component of aging and can be replaced by fillers. However, it is essential to note that fillers alone will not be enough if the skin is too loose, and a surgical facelift may be a better option. Please visit our non-surgical page to learn more about those particular options.

How does a surgical facelift work?

A facelift works to address aging in both the face and neck. Typically, a small incision is made in the natural crease of your ear. This allows the facial skin and muscles (also referred to as the SMAS layer) to be gently tightened. SMAS is an acronym for Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System in the plastic surgery world. Our doctors frequently combine a facelift with fat grafting (added tiny amounts of fat in the face) to restore a youthful volume and a warm glow to the skin. Also, it is common to combine a facelift with other rejuvenating surgeries such as a brow lift or blepharoplasty (eye lift).

Additional Reading

The doctors at North Beach Plastic Surgery in Virginia Beach approach each facelift with careful attention to detail, an understanding of facial anatomy, and listen to your concerns to help you achieve natural-looking results. Every face is unique, and any approach to rejuvenation must be highly tailored to the individual. For this reason, our doctors advise patients that no two faces are the same; hence, they employ a unique approach to each facelift patient. Also, we discuss the results of your facelift surgery at length during your consultation. It is imperative that you have a realistic expectation of your post-operative outcome.

What about thread lifts or something similar?

North Beach Plastic Surgery takes great pride in providing surgical results that are consistent, natural, effective, and long-lasting, not merely selling you the latest gimmick. Unfortunately, cosmetic surgery is a field where aggressive marketing and deception abound. We have built a reputation for our honest approach and strict ethics. For all these reasons, we do not provide thread lifts.

Facelift Recovery and Results

Surgery is performed only in facilities that meet the highest safety standards. After a facelift Virginia Beach patients will go home, accompanied by a friend or relative. Facelift surgery generally is only minimally painful, and many patients do not feel the need to take more than Tylenol for relief. You will see our surgeons one to two days after surgery to remove the dressing. Stitches are taken out in the office one week after surgery. Afterward, light exercise can resume. On the whole, bruising and swelling resolve in the first two weeks. The best piece of advice our surgeons give to our Virginia Beach facelift patients is to be patient and ice, ice, ice, and more ice! Icing and sitting upright as much as a possible aid in the facelift recovery. If you wish to remain private about your surgery, we recommend waiting at least two to three weeks before any social engagements.

One of the reasons it is hard to calculate a general cost for a facelift is that patients often add on ancillary procedures such as eyelid surgery, brow lift, and chemical peels.
