Facelift surgery continues to be one of the most effective ways to restore youthful definition and confidence.

Knowing how to care for yourself after surgery and adopting habits that keep your skin and tissues healthy.

More Information About Facelift Longevity
Your results depend not only on the skill of your surgeon but also on your age, genetics, and long-term maintenance. Here are a few common questions I hear from patients:
How do you take care of your face after a facelift?
In the first weeks, follow your surgeon’s recovery plan closely. Gentle cleansing, proper hydration, and avoiding strenuous activity are some of our top facelift recovery tips.
Once you’re fully healed, stay consistent with sun protection and skin care; they make a big difference in optimizing and maintaining your results.
Can weight changes affect your results?
Yes, significant weight fluctuations may alter your facial contours, leave excess skin behind, and even accelerate visible aging. Maintaining a stable, healthy weight is one of the simplest ways to protect your investment.
Can nonsurgical treatments help?
Options such as dermal fillers, BOTOX®, or laser treatments can refresh your appearance and extend your facelift results without additional surgery.
