Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a full facelift and a mini facelift?

A full facelift comprehensively addresses aging from cheeks to neck with significant, long-lasting results. A mini facelift (also called a short scar facelift) targets early aging in the lower face with smaller incisions and a shorter recovery. During your consultation, our surgeons will recommend the approach that best matches your anatomy and goals.

Will people know I've had a facelift?

This is one of the questions we hear most. Our goal is for you to look like yourself on your best day, not like someone else entirely. Our surgeons use advanced techniques that restore youthful contours while preserving your natural facial characteristics. Friends and family may notice you look refreshed, but strangers won’t know you’ve had surgery.

How long before I can return to work without people noticing?

Every patient heals differently, but our surgical techniques and recovery protocols mean you'll be back to your routine sooner than you might expect. Our facelift recovery is usually about a week, and most patients have minimal to no bruising. You may resume light, normal daily activity the day following your procedure.

Am I too young or too old for a facelift?

Age alone doesn't determine candidacy for a facelift, your anatomy and goals do. The right time is when you're bothered by what you see and healthy enough for surgery. Our surgeons can adapt their techniques to suit a wide variety of ages and concerns.

Can a facelift be combined with other procedures, like eyelid surgery or a neck lift?

Absolutely. In fact, combining procedures often delivers the most harmonious, natural-looking results. Many of our patients choose to address their eyelids (blepharoplasty), neck (neck lift) or forehead (brow lift) during the same surgery, as these areas age together. We can also add volume restoration with fat transfer, or nonsurgical enhancements like Botox or dermal fillers.

How do consultation fees work?

The consultation fee is $100, and that cost is applied toward your surgery if you decide to book.
