What is a liquid face lift?

The liquid face lift is a technique using dermal fillers such as Radiesse, Restylane and/or Juvederm to lift the jaw line, cheeks and jowls. Typically to treat the neck Botox or Dysport can be utilized to tighten the neck bands and/or the Nefriti lift.

As we age our skin doesn't just wrinkle, the tissues beneath the skin lose volume causing the skin to sag and fold. A facelift, which surgically removes excess skin, doesn't address the need to infuse the facial features with volume and dimension. A more appropriate treatment for many men and women is a Liquid Face Lift.

A Liquid Face Lift is accomplished using injectible treatments such as BOTOX and Dermal Fillers, including Juvderm, Restylane, Radiesse and numerous others. These dermal fillers are made of naturally existing molecules such as Hyaluronic Acid and Calcium Hydroxyapatite which are biocompatible, biodegradable, and are absorbed by the body over time. Dermal Fillers may be used to augment diminished, sunken facial features like the cheeks, cheek bones, temples, nasolabial folds (smile lines), and lines around the mouth and lower face.

Unlike a surgical facelift, a Liquid Face Lift can typically be done in around and hour, requires no sedation, and results in little or no downtime.
