Second Facelift @ 65 Is Safe

Tanveer Janjua, 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!

If you are medically healthy and can undergo surgery then a facelift is safe. You should consider it before you develop any medical illness that would increase your surgical risk. If for any reason you cannot have this facelift then consider Sculptra injections to restore the facial volume and youthful appearance.
