Often candidates are curious about how long the results are expected to last.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The simple answer is, a well-performed facelift should last a very long time. Someone that has facelift can expect to always look younger than they would if they did not have facelift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, facelift does not stop the aging process. And exactly how long facelift results last depends on several different factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Can Facelift Improve?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>First, let\u2019s review what facelift is intended to accomplish. Facelift can minimize the appearance of the following age-related concerns:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Skin laxity on the face or neck<\/li><li>Creases under the lower eyelids<\/li><li>Displaced or fallen fat<\/li><li>Wrinkles or folds between the nose and mouth<\/li><li>Fat deposits along the jawline<\/li><li>Fat deposits under the chin and on the neck<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>By lifting the deep layers of tissue, tightening the muscles and trimming excess skin, facelift creates more youthful looking contours and smoother, tighter skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factors that Can Affect the Results of Facelift<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The longevity of facelift results depends on factors including the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>The skill of the surgeon<\/strong>. The experience and skill of the surgeon performing the operation are critical to the overall outcomes.<\/li><li><strong>The quality or condition of the patient\u2019s tissues<\/strong>. Individuals that are lifelong smokers or who have severe sun damage may not see results that are as long-lasting as those that do not smoke\/stay out of the sun.<\/li><li><strong>The age of the patient at the time of surgery<\/strong>. Patients that are younger at the time of surgery tend to see longer-lasting results than patients that are older.<\/li><li><strong>The specific surgical techniques used<\/strong>. Simply tightening the skin without addressing the underlying layers of muscle and tissue will not yield long-lasting (or very attractive) results.<\/li><li><strong>How well a patient follows instructions<\/strong>. Patients should follow all of their surgeon\u2019s post-op instructions to enjoy long-lasting results.<\/li><li><strong>Whether a patient has adjunct procedures<\/strong>. Additional procedures like <a href=\"https:\/\/ghsurgery.com\/staging\/procedures\/non-surgical\/botox\/\">Botox\u00a0injections<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ghsurgery.com\/staging\/procedures\/non-surgical\/micro-peel\/\">peels<\/a>\u00a0can help prolong the results of facelift.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Book a Facelift Consultation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have additional questions about facelift, please don\u2019t hesitate to reach out to Dr. Graper or Dr. Harper.
