Re-do facelift.

Otto Joseph Placik, MD answers: Is it safe to have another facelift seven years after?

I'm 65 years old and had a facelift seven years ago that I was delighted with. I'm beginning now to see the need for perhaps another minor procedure even though I do Botox. I wasn't happy with my Juvederm injection for the nose-to-mouth line so prefer not attempting that again. Any suggestions as to another facelift and the type or would this be an overkill on my part? Thanks!

A facelift typically "lasts 7-10 years". So to some degree, your facelift has survived a typical cycle. I would recommend that you return to your original surgeon who is most familar with your anatomy and previous procedure as well as how to enhance those results
