What is The Best Age for a Facelift?
The Best Time For You
If you are considering a facelift, it’s important to know that there is no set age for facelift patients. Although most people get a facelift in their upper 50s, facelift patients can be any age. What is most important is that you think it’s time for facial rejuvenation.
Is a Facelift Right for Your Facial Aging?
Facial aging is a complex process, commonly described as a “triad of facial aging,” which includes:
- Loss of skin tone
- Loss of facial volume
- Sagging of facial tissues
A facelift can correct the third element of facial aging. Only a facelift has the power to elevate sagging tissues to give significant facial rejuvenation. Signs of skin laxity in the face that can be corrected by a facelift include:
- Jowls
- Loose or excess skin in the neck area
- Neck banding
- Poorly defined chin or jawline
If you have these symptoms of facial aging, then a facelift might be appropriate for you, no matter your age.
Not Time For a Facelift?
Many people experience other signs of facial aging before they are ready for a facelift. These other signs of facial aging can be addressed using other anti-aging treatments that may include:
- BOTOX® Cosmetic
- Dermal fillers
- Advanced skincare
- Laser skin resurfacing
During your consultation, your provider will discuss your concerns and help you find the right treatment plan for you.
