An aging face can make you anxious about what to expect when looking in the mirror years from now. But, for some, a surgical facelift is scary and most patients try to postpone or avoid going under the knife for as long as possible. Thankfully, with the evolution of aesthetic medicine, there are real alternatives to achieve facial rejuvenation. While surgical facelifts have long been (and still are) the gold standard for anti-aging treatments, non-surgical facial rejuvenation is becoming popular with comparable results.
At Rejuvenis, Dr. Russo has developed signature procedures that combine injectables and devices to help patients achieve surgical-like facelift results. With over 30 years of extensive experience as a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon, his forward-thinking approach to beauty offers a blend of convenience, safety, and effectiveness that many find preferable.
Who Can Benefit from a “Non-Surgical Facelift”?
Non-surgical facial rejuvenation is an excellent option for individuals who seek to reduce the signs of aging but are not ready for the commitment or risks associated with surgery. Ideal candidates include those experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity, fine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss. This approach is particularly appealing to:
- Busy professionals who cannot afford the downtime associated with surgical procedures.
- Individuals seeking subtle enhancements that yield natural-looking results.
- Patients who prefer minimally invasive treatments due to health considerations or personal preference.
- Those looking to extend or enhance the results of previous surgical facelifts.
Longevity of Non-Surgical Facial Rejuvenation Results
The results of non-surgical facelifts, while impressive, are not permanent, but then again neither are the results of a facelift! The longevity of outcomes can vary depending on the specific treatments used, ranging from several months to a few years. For instance, the effects of dermal fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years, while energy-based treatments might offer improvements that persist longer with regular maintenance sessions.
It’s important to acknowledge that aging is an ongoing process; no treatment can stop it entirely. However, non-surgical facelifts can significantly reduce the signs of aging, offering a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance. Regular treatments, combined with a healthy lifestyle and skincare regimen, can help maintain these results, allowing patients to age gracefully and with confidence.
Achieving Surgical Results with Non-Surgical Facelift Alternatives
Our practice is at the forefront of this exciting shift, offering non-surgical facelift alternatives that challenge the need for invasive surgery. By leveraging advanced technologies and techniques, such as:
- Focused Ultrasound therapy (such as Sofwave)
- Laser therapy
- Radiofrequency treatments
- BOTOX and Dermal fillers
We can achieve results that were once only possible through surgical and other invasive interventions. These treatments work synergistically to address various signs of aging, from smoothing wrinkles to restoring lost volume and improving skin texture.
The Future of Facial Rejuvenation
The choice between surgical and non-surgical facial rejuvenation ultimately depends on individual needs, goals, and lifestyle. As we continue to innovate, the gap between the outcomes achievable by these two approaches narrows, with non-surgical methods offering a viable and attractive alternative for those seeking to rejuvenate their appearance without the downsides of surgery.
