A facelift generally focuses on the bottom two-thirds of the face, and occasionally the neck. During your facelift surgery, your doctor will rearrange fat and tissues beneath the skin to contour your face and give it the shape you are hoping to achieve.
The Mini-Facelift.
During a mini facelift, a thin, small incision is made around the ears to lift the skin to a higher position, which enhances the mouth, jawline, and jowls. This process creates subtle improvements that looks natural.
The Lower-Facelift.
This lift addresses the chin area and neck, and in many cases, the jowls. Nonsurgical methods, such as a Kybella injection, can also be used for chin reduction to attain a younger, tighter-looking neck.
The Non-Surgical Facelift.
There several Facelift options that do not require surgery, including FACEtite and Kybella. FACEtite uses radiofrequency energy to increase collagen production and dissolve unneeded fat cells. Kybella injections add volume and do away with wrinkles.
What You Need to Know about Every Facelift.
The Full-Facelift.
Considered the gold standard, the full facelift most often incorporates an incision close to the hairline, then extends down to the area near the temples, reaching the base of the ears. The underlying facial tissues and muscles are carefully pulled and safely tightened to produce a lifted outcome, which reduces excessive loose skin and droopy features. This facelift is reserved for individuals who have visible signs of advanced aging. With this lift, various treatments may be combined, including blepharoplasty to enhance the eyes or a neck lift for the lower region.
They're All FDA Approved.
The American Food and Drug Association has approved the use of these surgeries, devices (such as the FACEtite device), and cosmetic fillers (Botox, Kybella, Juvederm). Your board-certified doctor will be sure to only use the prescribed methods, volumes, and areas that have been approved to ensure your safety and satisfaction.
Reasons That You Should Consider A Facelift.
A Facelift is for you if you are tired of purchasing creams, serums, and other products that have little to no impact on the youthful aesthetic of your skin. You may consider a Facelift if you are ready to rejuvinate your face and return to a wrinkle free, sagg-less demeanor. If you have lost volume, or have not been able to loose those jowls or double chins, despite all you best efforts, a Facelift is the answer for you.
What To Expect From The Classic Facelift:
Preparing For A Facelift.
You are ready to rediscover their beautiful facial features and shape if you are generally healthy with no pre-existing conditions that would affect your recovery from surgery or wound healing, you don’t smoke or misuse drugs, and you have a realistic expectation and understanding of what a facelift entails, and what your final outcome will likely be.
Side-Effects Of Facelifts.
The most common side effects from a Facelift are mild pain and discomfort, swelling, and redness. Throughout your recovery, your doctor will monitor your healing vigilantly, keeping an eye out for signs of infection or any other complications.
Results After Facelifts.
Facelift clients generally experience a mild to moderate amount of swelling within the first two to three weeks. The final results of your facelift will be best seen about 3 months post-operation, and will progressively continue to improve for the next year.
Why Choose A Non-Surgical Facelift?
#1. No Downtime Or Anesthesia
A non-surgical facelift is a non-invasive procedure that does not require large incisions or significant surgery, therefore allowing clients to walk out of their appointments with results already visible!
#2. No Surgery Or Incisions
For many of us, the thought of surgery can be intimidating. FACEtite involves no large incisions and no anesthesia! You can be totally comfortable and confident during your procedure.

You’re not alone if you find yourself avoiding mirrors and photos, because you don’t want to witness all the smile lines that grin back at you! Your non-surgical facelift will restore both your youthful skin AND your confidence!
#4. Results That Improve With You
One of the amazing things about many of the non-surgical facelift options is that they harness the natural workings of the body and stimulate collagen production. This is a gradual and ongoing process that will cause your results to continue emerging for months!
FAQs about Facelifts.
