The surgical face lift has long remained the anti-aging hallmark as one of the most common procedures performed today. But, what if we told you that surgery wasn’t the only way to achieve dramatic rejuvenation?
The Liquid Facelift Plus at Vitality Women’s Healthcare is an innovative non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses a combination of injectable dermal fillers, neurotoxin, and RF microneedling or laser resurfacing to tighten, lift, and rejuvenate the face. Unlike traditional facelift surgeries, a liquid facelift offers a quicker recovery time and minimal downtime. However, one common question among those considering this treatment is how long its effects will last.
Let’s explore the longevity of a liquid facelift and the factors that can affect its duration!
How Does Liquid Facelift Plus Work?
A liquid facelift typically uses dermal fillers, such as calcium or hyaluronic acid-based products, to restore volume, reduce lines and wrinkles, and contour the face. These injectables fill areas with loss of volume, ultimately providing a more refreshed appearance without surgery.
While facial filler alone can achieve great results in facial rejuvenation, the Liquid Facelift Plus at Vitality Women’s Healthcare takes things a step further by incorporating RF microneedling or laser resurfacing alongside Xeomin to address each sign of aging.
With restored facial volume from filler, softened wrinkles from Xeomin, and tightened skin from RF microneedling or laser resurfacing, a youthful appearance is achieved with a greater result than a singular injectable treatment.
Without any surgical procedures, a Liquid Facelift procedure is an excellent option for targeting a wide range of facial aging concerns:
- Frown lines
- Dynamic wrinkles
- Severe Lines
- Overactive facial muscles
- Volume loss
- Loss of facial contour
- Facial lines
- Loss of natural collagen production
- Moderate skin laxity
Factors That Affect Longevity
Like any cosmetic treatment, the results can never be truly permanent, however, that doesn’t mean they aren’t long-lasting. While there is no definitive answer to how long a liquid facelift lasts, several factors can influence its duration.
Product Selection
The choice of dermal filler used can play a significant role in determining how long the results will last. Some products have a shorter lifespan, lasting around 6 to 12 months, while others can provide results for up to 2 years or more. It is crucial to discuss the options with your provider to select the most suitable type of filler used for your desired outcome and longevity.
Metabolism and Lifestyle
Individual factors, such as metabolism and lifestyle choices, can affect how long the results of a liquid facelift last. Those with a faster metabolism may break down the fillers more quickly, leading to a shorter duration of results. Additionally, lifestyle choices such as smoking, excessive sun exposure, and poor skincare habits can also impact the longevity of the treatment.
Skincare Habits
A great skincare routine is essential for maintaining the health and youthfulness of the facial skin – and supporting the longevity of liquid facelift treatments. Using medical-grade skin care products like Reveal by Vitality alongside a personalized treatment plan will keep your skin in tip-top shape before you need to come in for another treatment.
Technique
The skills and experience of the injector can play a role in the longevity of a liquid facelift. A trained and skilled provider will administer the injections strategically, ensuring optimal placement and longevity of the fillers. It is essential to choose a reputable and experienced injector for the best results.
Maintenance Treatments
To maintain the effects of a liquid facelift, follow-up treatments may be needed. Touch-up injections can help sustain the results and prolong the longevity of the initial treatment. Your provider will develop a customized treatment plan based on your goals and monitor the progression of the fillers, recommending additional treatments as necessary.
Duration of Results
On average, the results of a liquid facelift can last up to 2 years – and can be extended with maintenance treatments!
Fillers, such as those made of hyaluronic acid like Juvéderm, typically provide results that last between 6 to 12 months. These fillers are gradually absorbed by the body over time, causing the effects to diminish gradually.
On the other hand, longer-lasting fillers, such as calcium hydroxyapatite-based products like Radiesse at Vitality Women’s Healthcare, can provide results that can last up to 2 years or more. These filler types stimulate collagen production, leading to more sustained effects. Your treatment will be customized with the best-suited filler for your needs during your Liquid Facelift Plus.
Although the initial effects of Liquid Facelift Plus may fade with time, improvements in the skin’s quality, firmness, and texture will still be noticeable even after the fillers have dissolved. This is because the injections combined with RF microneedling or laser resurfacing stimulate collagen production, which can improve skin elasticity and firmness.
To maintain the results of a liquid facelift, it is recommended to follow up with touch-up treatments as advised by your provider.
Is a Liquid Facelift Right for Me?
Ideal candidates will have moderate signs of aging such as volume loss, facial wrinkles, and skin laxity. A Liquid Facelift is a great non-surgical alternative to surgical facelifts in patients who do not have excess skin or loose skin. During your consultation, your provider will assess your facial anatomy and aesthetic goals to create a personalized treatment plan and decide if the treatment is right for you.
Long gone are the days when a trip to the plastic surgeon was your only option for achieving dramatic rejuvenation. In a non-surgical procedure, we can restore youthful contours and skin tightening without an extensive recovery period.
If facial plastic surgery is out of the question, a liquid facelift is a great alternative to surgery.
