You know you are not ready for a facelift yet but your face is not looking as youthful as you want. There are many non-surgical options and minimally invasive options that are increasingly important to maintaining appearance if a facelift might be in your future in the next decade. If you are counting down “T-Minus 10 Years” to a facelift or necklift, listen to Dr. Bass review your options to look your best until you are ready to launch a surgical project and to help extend the time until surgery is necessary.
Thirty years ago, the usual age for a facelift was around 50. Today it’s 60 or even later thanks to the non-surgical technologies and treatments available including injectables, Ultherapy, radiofrequency microneedling, threadlifts, and myEllevate. Depending on how close you are to needing a face lift, you can take small steps, or do a combination of treatments to optimize appearance and delay surgery.
If you already have significant skin laxity, Dr. Bass cautions that there’s no meaningful substitute for facelift and necklift and nothing on the horizon to replace them. In those circumstances, don’t waste your time and money on something that isn't surgery because you will only be disappointed.
