Information on the Benefits of a Non-Surgical Facelift
Surgery is a rather invasive process. And not all individuals are ready or willing to choose this as an option. Some people don’t really want a drastic looking change. They simply want to correct egregious wrinkles and areas of sagging, while looking their age.
Experts reason that a non-surgical face lift can offer a more natural looking outcome. Here is why.
A face will look old because it has lost much of its fullness. The skin, fat and muscles will start to sag due to this volume loss. So it makes sense to address this cause of an aged appearance by adding volume to the face instead of stretching it.
The results of a non-surgical face lift are not permanent. But keep in mind that the face will continue change over time. With temporary injections results can constantly be adjusted and updated, keeping the patient looking as natural as possible.
Also the use of non-invasive techniques is less costly compared to procedures that use a scalpel. And downtime is often minimal to non-existent.
The Best Candidates For A Non-Surgical Face Lift
These procedures are ideal for patients in their 40’s and 50’s who are just starting to notice areas of sagging and drooping.
Information on Los Angeles Patients And Their Non-Surgical Face Lift Results
Radiesse
Sometimes, looking younger is simply a matter of addressing just the lower half of the face. These two women from Los Angeles experienced the results of a non surgical face lift simply by correcting their nasolabial folds.
Nasolabial folds are lines around the nose and mouth that look like parenthesis. Most people don’t consciously notice them on a face. However they play a rather significant role in how young a person looks.
Both patients received injections of Radiesse to correct the deepening grooves around their nose and mouth area. Radiesse is a dermal filler that is created as a suspension of calcium hydroxyapatite particles in a gel medium. These microspheres help to provide structure and support beneath the skin. The gel helps to add volume. Eventually collagen fibers develop and occupy the space of the gel medium after it is absorbed by the body.

Although it may not be immediately obvious, filling in the nasolabial grooves helped to restore the plumpness and volume in the lower face. Prior to their Radiesse treatment, both patients’ faces looked like they were starting to droop and sag.
Thus they received the results of a nonsurgical face lift by lifting the skin in this area of their faces.
Botox
This Los Angeles patient received more of a comprehensive non-surgical face lift. She wanted to get rid of:
- deep horizontal wrinkles in her forehead
- crows feet lines
- vertical frown lines around her brow
These wrinkles were causing her face to look like it was sagging. Also the deterioration of muscles tissues in her brows caused them to droop. This is a common occurrence in the aging face.
The results of a Botox treatment corrected all these areas. Here are before and after pictures.

This Los Angeles patient received a wonderful and natural looking transformation through a non-surgical face lift with Botox. Besides just correcting her wrinkles, a major part of her improvement included her eyebrows. As you can see in the picture on the left, the tail end of her brows had descended. Botox was injected in the muscles that pulled them down. This caused the opposite muscles to pull them back up.
