How Long Will Facelift Results Last – and How Can I Prolong Them?

Facelifts are consistently among the most sought-after cosmetic procedures in the United States, with hundreds of thousands of people choosing to get this surgery every year. If issues like skin laxity, jowls, and lines in the lower two-thirds of your face are making you look older than you feel, it might be time for you to start considering a surgical solution.

What Can a Facelift Do for You?

When performed by a skilled surgeon such as Dr. Yula Indeyeva, a facelift can tighten sagging skin around your neck and jawline, smooth deep-set wrinkles such as nasolabial folds, and enhance your self-esteem.

Unfortunately, even an expert such as Dr. Indeyeva cannot keep you from getting older. On average, you can expect to enjoy your natural-looking facelift results for at least a decade before you start noticing the signs of aging reemerging. Fortunately, you can take proactive steps to preserve your youthful appearance.

1. Get Chemical Peels

Chemical peels are an excellent way to address multiple skin concerns in one session. If you’re looking for a brighter, smoother, healthier complexion, this non-surgical skin resurfacing treatment is an ideal solution. It involves applying a specially formulated blend of acids to your face to remove dead skin cells and induce a healing response that can jump-start collagen production.

2. Use Medical-Grade Skin Products

The products you use in your self-care regimen can prolong your facelift results by enriching, nourishing, and preserving your skin. Skinbetter is an innovative, scientifically advanced, research-backed product line that includes serums, overnight moisturizers, sunscreens, and cleansers.

The only way to buy skinbetter science products is by working with an authorized physician partner like Dr. Indeyeva. She can recommend the best combination for your skin and the concerns you are hoping to address.

3. Add Non-Surgical Procedures

Non-surgical injectables like dermal fillers and neuromodulators are one of the best ways to enhance or prolong your facelift results. These products can minimize wrinkles and volumize areas like your lips and cheeks. Dr. Indeyeva is a highly trained injector who uses precise techniques for a superior outcome.

4. Make Lifestyle Changes

Your daily habits significantly affect your skin quality throughout your life. For example, staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water will help your skin stay supple and moisturized from within. Getting seven to nine hours of restful sleep per night helps your entire body restore itself, including destroying free radicals that can accelerate the aging process. Meanwhile, remembering to apply sunscreen every time you go outside is a simple preventive measure that protects you from damaging UV rays.
