Will a facelift eliminate all facial wrinkles and lines?
While a facelift can significantly reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles and lines, it may not eliminate them entirely. The main goal of a facelift is to address sagging skin and restore a more youthful contour to the face, but additional treatments like dermal fillers or laser resurfacing may be recommended to further improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles for a comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

Will a facelift change the shape of my eyes or mouth?
A facelift primarily focuses on addressing sagging skin and restoring a more youthful appearance to the lower face and neck, so it typically does not change the shape of the eyes or mouth. However, there are other procedures such as eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) or lip augmentation that can specifically target those areas if desired, and a comprehensive evaluation with a board-certified plastic surgeon will help determine the most appropriate treatment plan to address your specific concerns.

Can a facelift address volume loss in the cheeks or lips?
A facelift primarily focuses on addressing sagging skin and restoring a more youthful appearance to the lower face and neck, and while it can provide some improvement in the appearance of the cheeks, it may not specifically address volume loss. To address volume loss in the cheeks or lips, dermal fillers or fat grafting may be recommended as adjunct procedures to enhance facial contours and restore volume.

How long do the results of a facelift last?
The results of a facelift can vary depending on individual factors such as skin quality, lifestyle, and aging process, but typically, the effects of a facelift can last for several years, providing long-lasting rejuvenation to the face. It’s important to note that while a facelift can turn back the clock on aging, it does not halt the natural aging process, and as time passes, some gradual changes may occur. Regular maintenance and a healthy lifestyle can help prolong the longevity of the results.

Will a facelift affect my ability to move my facial muscles?
A well-performed facelift should not affect your ability to move your facial muscles. The goal of a facelift is to rejuvenate the appearance of the face while preserving natural facial expressions, and skilled plastic surgeons take great care to ensure that the facial muscles and nerves are not compromised during the procedure, allowing for normal facial movements and expressions post-surgery.
