We often see patients with concerns about wrinkles, signs of aging, and with the way their face falls over time. They’re often curious about whether facelifts are right for them. Facelifts can offer incredible results for those looking to appear a decade younger—-with natural, lifted results! We know you have questions; so let’s explore some of the most common inquiries we get about facelifts to consider whether this surgery could be right for you.
The right age for a facelift depends on you as an individual; your goals, face shape, and the way your face is changing as you age. Collagen and elastin production starts to dwindle in our late 20s, so signs of aging grow more evident as we age. If you’re seeing noticeable signs like jowling, loss of definition along your jawline, it might be the right time to consider facelift surgery.
By investing in a facelift at a younger age, you can take control of your beauty for years to come and enjoy your investment for longer. A facelift can address more extreme signs of aging, but it can also be a great way to prevent the deeper signs of aging from setting in; proactively smooth folds and avoid deeper creasing or sagging with the lift and improved contours of facelift surgery. Why wait? With traditional financing methods or the use of our financing partners, you can pay for your facelift in instalments. Waiting another 10 years might make the signs of aging more visible, and a great surgeon can provide natural-looking results. There’s nothing quite as fun as looking like you’re 40 in your 50s! Come see us to explore your options and we’ll guide you through the right plan to land at the outcome you’re hoping for.
Facelift results are long-lasting, and can make you look 10 years younger than you do now. The way your results last depends on the way you take care of your body and your skin, how thoughtfully you honour the recovery period after surgery, and the natural way that your face ages.
Facelift surgery provides a long-lasting result to fully reposition loose skin and tighten underlying facial muscles. But other non-invasive treatments can offer visible results to work alongside a surgical outcome for a more youthful look.
These include:
When determining the suitability of a facelift for you, your surgeon will evaluate factors such as your skin texture, elasticity and thickness, your wrinkles and folds, and your natural facial structure and symmetry. If your visible signs of aging are more subtle and you’re under 40, we may recommend non-surgical treatments like injectables and laser treatments first. Looking to address specific issues like crow’s feet, wrinkles, folds, or a furrowed brow? You may want to consider neuromodulators to relax the muscles creating these folds instead.
Facelift incisions are typically made along the hairline, following the contour of your ear. At FORM Face + Body our surgeons thoughtfully place incisions where they’ll be maximally hidden by your hairline or in some cases underneath your chin. When you come in for your consultation, we’ll explain where the incisions will be made for your specific surgery so you know exactly what to expect.
