A nonsurgical facelift is a procedure to temporarily refresh, firm or plump the skin on your face. It doesn’t require large incisions (cuts), general anesthesia or an overnight hospital stay.
What Does a Nonsurgical Facelift Entail?
Non-surgical facelifts typically use a combination of minimally invasive and nonsurgical techniques. Your healthcare provider can advise you about which procedures are right for you as the procedures vary depending on the patient’s needs. It can include a combination of the following procedures.
Nonsurgical Facelift Options:
Botulinum toxin injections:
These injections, such as Botox, Dysport or Xeomin relax tense muscles that can lead to wrinkles. Most people get botulinum toxin injections between their eyebrows, in their forehead or at the corners of their eyes. Results can last for 3-4 months.
Chemical peels:
Chemicals remove the top layers of your skin. They can help reduce large pores, minimize wrinkles and reveal newer, firmer skin. Most people need multiple chemical peels to achieve the results they want.
Dermal fillers:
Injections of substances such hyaluronic acid or gel add volume back to sunken areas of the face for example to your cheeks, lips or under eyes. They can also fill in deep wrinkles. These fillers last anywhere from six months to several years.
Collagen stimulating and skin boosting agents like Sculptra and Skinvive
Laser skin resurfacing:
Beams of intense light target certain areas of your face. The treatment removes the older, outer layers of your skin. Heat from the light also stimulates collagen growth. Laser skin resurfacing can help your skin appear smoother and firmer and eliminate signs of environmental damage.
Microdermabration:
This minimally invasive procedure gently sands away layers of your skin with a rough pad. Exfoliation with microdermabrasion can help reduce the appearance of fine lines, mild scars and other skin concerns. You may need multiple treatments, usually a few weeks apart. Results last several months.
Microneedling:
Thin, tiny needles make small wounds in your face. It stimulates the growth of collagen and elastinin your skin. It can improve the look of loose skin, wrinkles, large pores and sun damage. You may need multiple treatments, usually about three to eight weeks apart. Full results take about three to six months to appear.
Ultherapy:
Ultherapy is the only FDA approved non-invasive procedure that lifts and tightens the skin on your brow, chin, neck and décolletage. Using the energy of ultrasound, this innovative device reaches deep below the skin to the structural layers. In this way, Ultherapy targets a similar tissue depth as a surgical facelift. Ultherapy uses time-tested ultrasound energy to lift and tighten the skin naturally—without surgery or downtime.
PDO thread face lift:
A Thread Lift is a cosmetic facial rejuvenation procedure using FDA Approved polydioxanone (PDO Threads) sutures, (used safely for decades in surgery) to lift, tighten, firm and smooth your skin.
PRP injections:
It is a form of aesthetic injectable treatment that uses patient’s own platelet rich plasma. The plasma component contains stem cells and growth factors. When injected back into the skin, it accelerated body’s natural production of collagen and elastin to provide overall skin rejuvenation. It also could be used for stimulation of hair follicles and sexual wellness.
