Congratulations on your facelift. It's an exciting time but maintenance is important. First, try to avoid significant weight fluctuations since the skin may not respond as you had hoped. Second, continue with a skin care regimen that works for your age and skin type. This includes an effective sunscreen and possible regular visits to the aesthetician. Finally, good nutrition, hydration and exercise habits shines on your new mug. Thank you for your great question and Blessings!
Sun protection and good skin care are important. Your surgeon can discuss all this with you. Best wishes.
Thank you for your question!
This is a good one.

You had a facelift a few months ago; so it is still in the healing process. I guess everything went well with your surgery and you are happy with your results since you now want to know how to maintain your look.

Be patient. You may see your best results in three months or six months or even longer; and it can still improve with time, but sometimes it is quickly getting back to the old shape or an altered look that you don't like much.

When you are happy with your results after six months or so, you may want to maintain your look by eating healthy, having enough sleep, and doing exercises as you want to maintain your general health. You know, you look younger and feel younger when you maintain your good health and optimism, having a positive attitude about life.

Everyone is aging differently and you may age faster or slower at some period of time in your life. So after you have reverted your age many or just a few years with you facelift, you need to keep maintaining a healthy life. And, it is also important for you to care for your skin to prevent sun damage and moisten it daily. You will look good for a longer time after your facelift.

One thing I want to share with you: know your face and learn how to do makeups to make you look more attractive as you yourself the way you want to...

Again, a facelift can only help that much...
