What Can a Facelift Treat?

Everyone’s face reveals signs of aging over time. The face loses volume, the skin droops and sags, and wrinkles and creases appear. Although several non-surgical facial rejuvenation options are now available, facelift surgery remains the most effective.  

At Cornerstone Plastic Surgery & Aesthetic Medicine, Dr. Fred Coville, MD, Plastic Surgeon, utilizes modern facelift techniques to address your unique needs and give you a more youthful, rejuvenated appearance.

A facelift or rhytidectomy is the ideal way to erase signs of aging on the face and neck and achieve a more youthful appearance. 

The modern facelift does more than tighten the skin. Dr. Coville includes processes that reshape and reposition the fat and tissue beneath the skin, resulting in increased facial volume and improved contours. 

Dr. Coville consistently provides natural-looking facial rejuvenation results because of his experience, education, and understanding of beauty and form. 

What Can a Facelift Treat? 

A facelift addresses signs of aging on the mid-to-lower portion of the face and neck. Wrinkles, deep folds and creases, and loose, sagging skin can all be improved with a facelift. 

Here are some of the things a facelift can improve: 

• Sagging in the midface
• Nasolabial folds and marionette lines (around the nose and mouth)
• Jawline definition
• Deep creases under the eyes
• Sagging neck skin

Combine Your Facelift with Other Procedures 

Your facelift may be performed alone or with complementary procedures to enhance results. Dr. Coville sometimes uses fat grafts taken from your body to add fullness to areas of the face that have experienced volume loss due to aging. 

While a facelift improves the lower two-thirds of the face, it does not address aging around the eyes or forehead. Therefore, people considering facelift may also need to undergo eyelid surgery or a  forehead lift to achieve optimal results.   

A facelift may also be combined with the following: 

• Neck lift
• Rhinoplasty
• Chin augmentation
• Dermal fillers such as Restylane and Juvederm
• Neurotoxins such as Botox and Dysport

Are you a Good Candidate for a Facelift? 

If you would like to minimize signs of aging on your face and neck, you may be a good candidate for a facelift. Ideal candidates should also have a well-defined bone structure and relatively elastic skin. A facelift works best for people in their 40s, 50s, and 60s, but it can also be performed for people as old as 80 if they are healthy enough.

If you are ready to invest in your appearance, a facelift can unlock your inner youth and beauty and make you feel more confident.
