PROCEDURE OVERVIEW
Aging is a privilege, but you don’t have to look older just because the years are adding up. However, the quest for a refreshed, youthful look has taken on a modern twist: reclaiming that radiant, young appearance without going under the knife. If you want a visible facelift to combat wrinkles, fine lines and sagging skin without having surgery, Polavarapu Plastic Surgery, PLLC, offers a safe non-surgical facelift Fort Worth treatment to restore volume to your face for a rejuvenated look.
WHAT IS A LIQUID FACELIFT?
A liquid facelift is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment that uses a mix of injectable dermal fillers and muscle relaxers (neuromodulators) beneath the skin to rejuvenate the face’s youthful look. The fillers add volume to targeted areas of the face, resulting in smoother skin, fewer wrinkles and fine lines, and improved facial contour. Common brands of fillers include Juvederm, Restylane, Radiesse, etc. A non-invasive facelift is a desirable choice if you want a more youthful appearance without having to commit to the recovery time and expense of standard surgical facelifts.
Although facelift alternatives can provide more volume and offer quick effects at a lesser cost than surgery, they are unable to treat excessively sagging skin. The benefits of the treatment might last anywhere from six months to two years, but the procedure isn’t permanent. As such, you will need to periodically repeat the procedure to maintain the results.
Targeted areas during a liquid facelift include:
- Eye rejuvenation: Injectable fillers can help reduce the appearance of dark circles, hollows, and under-eye bags.
- Cheek augmentation: The fillers can restore lost volume, enhance cheek contours, and address sunken or flat cheeks associated with aging.
- Lip augmentation: Liquid facelift treatment can add volume and definition to the lips, addressing thinning lips or asymmetry.
- Chin augmentation: Injectable fillers can augment the chin and improve facial balance and harmony.
- Nasolabial augmentation: Injectable fillers can soften the lines that run from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth.
- Marionette line enhancement: Fillers can help lift the lines extending from the corners of the mouth downward.
- Jawline contouring: Injectable fillers can enhance and define the jawline, improving overall facial symmetry and contour.
Now, let’s take a closer look at the steps of the Non-surgical facelift Fort Worth procedure.
- First, the plastic surgeon will mark injection sites on the face to get the desired outcome.
- Next, the face is thoroughly cleaned with an antibacterial solution. Topical numbing medications are often applied to the injection sites to maximize patient comfort. Some fillers for liquid facelifts contain an anesthetic in their formula.
- Targeting areas of volume loss or sagging, the injections are skillfully and carefully delivered with a needle to lift and shape the face. It will only take a few minutes in total for the actual injections, and a few seconds at each point.
- Next, the injected areas may be massaged to help the filler settle in smoothly. You will notice immediate natural-looking rejuvenation in your face.
- The doctor will assess your face in detail and do any required touch-ups.
- You may have some swelling or redness at the injection sites. These side effects resolve quickly. You’ll be given an ice pack to help with mild soreness.
