5 Tricks to Make Your Facelift Last Longer

Scottsdale Cosmetic Surgery5 Tricks to Make Your Facelift Last Longer

A great facelift won’t make you look different, but younger. The results can last for many years, but a consistent strategy will help you maintain your new look for many more years to come. The following tricks will make the results of surgery last even longer.

 

1. Protect against sun damage

Too much sun exposure causes your skin to age prematurely. You will need to avoid sun exposure immediately after surgery, but it’s important to get into the habit of avoiding direct exposure as much as possible by using sunscreen every day.

2. A Healthy Lifestyle is Important

Smoking, like sun exposure, causes premature aging of the skin. Extreme fluctuations in your weight can also harm the results of your surgery by undoing the gains. Stay hydrated, eat a balanced diet and exercise regularly to maintain your new youthful appearance.

3. Turn to Injectables

If you really want to make your facelift results last, consider refreshing your look with dermal fillers like Juvederm and Radiesse. Fillers can improve the appearance of fine lines and restore lost volume, treating areas that a facelift cannot for even longer-lasting results.

4. Treat your skin with laser skin resurfacing

Aging will continue after our facelift, and fine lines, discoloration or skin laxity may appear. Resurfacing will tighten your skin, reduce the appearance of wrinkles and improve the tone and texture of your skin while encouraging your body to produce new collagen.

5. Turn to medical-grade skincare
