I was so pleased with my first facelift, but am I too old to have it done again? Would I still need all the muscles underneath lifted also? I am active, healthy and a non smoker. I have used Botox and fillers., with good results.
Answer: Second facelift It is great that you are looking young for your age. Sounds like you had a very nice and long lasting results with your first facelift. However, I am sure that in 18 years your face had sagged a bit, so another facelift would make you look even better. As for the age, I don't think it should be a problem. My oldest facelift patient was 94 years old at the time of her procedure and she was thrilled with the results. If you are concerned with health impact of the surgery, consider getting your facelift done under local anesthesia. This would minimize any possible health risks and complications.Best of luck!Dr. Konstantin

CONTACT NOW Answer: Go For a Second Facelift When You're Ready At 68, you are not at all too old for a second facelift. That you were able to maintain the benefits of the first facelift for almost 20 years suggests that your skin is healthy and will respond well to additional surgery. Ideally, the muscles underneath will be retightened so you can go another 10 years or more with good results. You may also need fat grafting at this time, if you have lost volume in your mid face. I hope this helps.

Answer: I had a facelift 18 years ago when I was 50. I believe I still look at least 10 years younger. Am I too old to do it again? Without examining you it's difficult to give specific advice about what you would need surgically however I can tell you that in general 68 is not too old for a secondary facelift in a healthy patient. The only way to know for sure is to book a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon near you to see what your options are. Best of luck!

Answer: Facelift at 68 Thank you for your question. Facelift surgery is very common for people in their 60s. Age is not as much of a factor as overall health. As long as you don't have any major medical problems, you would be a good candidate. Revision facelift can safely be performed although depending on the technique of the first surgery, there can be extra scarring to deal with that may make the revision more difficult. See a facelift specialist who can help turn back the clock for you a second time! All the best.
