Three Procedures to Help Enhance Your Facelift Results

Facelift surgery remains the "gold standard" when it comes to virtually turning back the clock and restoring a dramatically younger look with natural, lasting results. Still, there are a number of complementary procedures available today that can help boost or even prolong the results of a surgical facelift. At Phillip Dauwe, M.D. Plastic Surgery, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Phillip Dauwe is committed to offering the most modern, innovative, and effective techniques and technologies available today to help men and women achieve the most optimal and enduring facelift results possible. Here, we'll review three exciting treatments and procedures that may be used before, during, or after your facelift surgery to enhance your outcome and keep you looking and feeling more confident and youthful for longer.

What does a facelift help with?

On its own, facelift surgery can be used to make a variety of improvements and enhancements to almost any area of the face. Depending on the type of facelift performed — which may be a full facelift, mid-face lift, lower facelift, or mini facelift — Dr. Dauwe will work to address your specific set of concerns. Some of the most common age-related changes that can be improved or even corrected with facelift surgery include:

Volume loss
Sunken cheeks
Drooping jowls
Deep lines and wrinkles
Downturned mouth
Sagging skin

What treatments should I consider in addition to a facelift?

During your initial consultation for facelift surgery in Dallas, TX, Dr. Dauwe will perform a comprehensive assessment of your skin elasticity, the progression of your facial aging, and other variables to determine the most suitable facial rejuvenation surgical plan possible for you. Three beneficial treatments and procedures to consider adding to your facelift plan include:

1. Complementary surgical procedures

Pairing your facelift surgery with other individual procedures that address specific features in addition to the facial contour overall can help to create a more harmonious new look. These may include:

2. Skin rejuvenation

Nonsurgical skin treatments — like laser skin rejuvenation — may be recommended either before or after facelift surgery (or both) to improve skin texture and elasticity for an even firmer and more youthful appearance.

3. Cosmetic injectables

To further perfect the results of facelift surgery and add volume in strategic areas that can create even more natural balance and harmony after facelift surgery, injectable dermal fillers — like JUVÉDERM® — can be a fantastic option. Injectable wrinkle relaxers, including BOTOX® and Dysport®, can also be used to keep dynamic lines and wrinkles at bay and help patients maintain their smoother, younger complexion more consistently over time.

Again, Dr. Dauwe will take ample time during your pre-facelift consultation to explain all of the available options for boosting your facelift results with a pre-, peri-, or postoperative treatment or procedure so that you can achieve the most beautiful, natural, and lasting facelift results possible.
