“Does facelift surgery last forever?”

Oh, I get this question all the time. Facelift surgery does not necessarily last forever but rather takes you back in time. Following a facelift procedure the normal aging process continues. The average patient will appear 7-12 years younger following facelift surgery. If you would like to set up a virtual consultation to discuss further, you can direct message me on Instagram @DrDaddyK

This is a great question. A facelift surgery elevates the musculature of the lower third of the face and removes the excess fat and skin. The incisions are hidden around the ear and into the hairline.

The typical result can make someone look 10-15 years younger. These results last a lifetime, however, after a facelift we continue to age at the same rate as our actual age so over time laxity will return. However, you will always look younger than your actual age.

YES, you'll never look as old after facelift as you would have appeared if you did not have the facelift. However, your features continue aging over time so maintenance of the result adds tremendous value and prolongs your vitality and confidence.

I appreciate your concerns, however facelift surgery, tightening underlying facial muscle and skin, usually lasts approximately 10 years. Individuals in their 40s or 50s can choose mini facelift first, and then years later full face lift when needed.
