Dermal filler treatment is popular with patients who want to solve the look of an ageing face that may have signs of skin laxity or lost volume. Many patients will have dermal fillers injected into isolated areas, such as the cheeks, lips or marionette lines, but did you know that an experienced aesthetics practitioner can take a full face approach to injecting dermal fillers?
With a full face rejuvenation approach your aesthetic Dr can mimic the results of a traditional facelift in a non-invasive way and without the down time.
Disadvantages of traditional facelifts
If you are to opt for traditional facelift surgery you will need to take time out of your busy schedule to make time for this type of operation. It will require going into a hospital or a specialist surgery and this will require plenty of time to recover after the procedure.
In addition to this, surgical facelifts can come with an expensive price tag, often running into the thousand of pounds.
Advantages of non-surgical facelifts
A non-surgical facelift on the other hand is a relatively quick procedure that can be done in an aesthetics clinic and requires little to no down time. You may feel a little swollen or maybe even have a bruise or two after a non surgical facelift, however these concerns will not take long to heal, and the vast majority of patients don’t let these small issues get in the way of their normal activities.
Non-surgical facelifts can give the impression that your face has been lifted and tightened, add volume to hollow areas and help to improve the look of sagging jowls.
Your aesthetics Doctor can evaluate your face and pinpoint exactly where you should be injected to get a non-surgical facelift that is individual to your specific features.
Here are some of the areas that can be injected, however it is important to note that it is unlikely that you will need all these areas to be treated to achieve the facelift look.
- Cheeks
- Tear troughs
- Nasolabial folds
- Marionette lines
- Chin
- Jaw
- Temples
What results can I expect from a non-surgical facelift?
If you have a non surgical facelift you will notice an improvement immediately after treatment. The results continue to get better as the dermal fillers settle and the hyaluronic acid attracts more hydration to the areas where you have been injected.
Non-surgical facelifts won’t give as dramatic results as going under the knife, but they do give really good results, and should be considered as a viable alternative to traditional facelifts for those who are more price conscious and want less down time after the treatment.
