Ribbon Facelift Procedure
As you can see from the many responses below, the ribbon facelift procedure has lost much of its luster in terms of being a reliable method of facial rejuvenation.

Unfortunately, the results with the ribbon lift were largely less than satisfactory. You would be better off focusing on other methods of facial rejuvenation that will give you more bang for your buck.

Avoid gimmick names for surgery.
We have said many times that among plastic surgeons there is no such thing as the "ribbon, week-end, lifestyle,etc" face lifts.

See a facelift specialist who has years of experience to guide you and tailor the procedure to what you need, not what they do!
You get what you pay for and when it sounds too good to be true, it is!
