Non-Surgical Face Lift Options
For those who want to look younger without the invasiveness of traditional face lift surgery there are now natural face lift options.
Minimally invasive techniques like the double C plication technique can tighten and lift the skin without the need for extensive surgery. These methods produce a more natural looking result with shorter recovery time and less discomfort.
Customized Surgical Solutions
Board certified plastic surgeons who specialize in facial plastic surgery can evaluate your individual needs and recommend the best solution for sagging skin, loose skin and other signs of aging.
They may recommend a combination of dermal fillers, laser treatments and other non-surgical procedures to help you look younger without the risks and surgical fees of a traditional face lift.
If you’re in good health with poor tissue elasticity and concerns about excess fat or facial features a surgical face lift may still be the best option.
But even in these cases advanced techniques can be used to produce natural looking results and shorter recovery time.
The key is to work with an experienced, board certified plastic surgeon who can tailor the approach to your individual needs and goals.
