How Long Do Facelift Results Last?

Posted in Facelift, Facial Procedures, Latest News

For patients who have undergone facelift surgery, the results can often last about ten years. However, the exact length of results will vary largely from patient-to-patient, as each facelift is customized to their specific needs. No two individuals will have the same experience after this procedure. Some of the elements that can affect the outcome of a facelift include the following:

• Skin and bone structure
• Genetics
• Tissue quality and health
• Location of cosmetic concerns
• Patient’s age
• Technique used for the procedure

Of course, most of these elements are uncontrollable, but patients can make a difference in extending their facelift results. The most common way to extend facelift results is by properly caring for the facial skin. This can include wearing sunscreen, avoiding tobacco products, controlling stress levels, and implementing a skin care routine. Cosmetic injectables can also be a viable option for many patients and can help to prolong results. Ask our board-certified plastic surgeon, Daniel C. Mills, about products like BOTOX^® Cosmetic and other popular treatments.

Ultimately, a facelift is designed to create a younger and more rejuvenated look. For the most personalized answers regarding your potential facelift, it is best to schedule a consultation with Dr. Mills. After performing a facial examination and inquiring about your medical history, Dr. Mills will create a treatment plan based on your needs and provide a more accurate picture of the results you can expect. At this time, he may also offer suggestions about how to care for your skin now and in the future.
