How long should the results of a good facelift/necklift last?

joybann
I am 61 and had a lower facelift and neck lift with lipo. I love the results and am healing nicely. After reading posts on this site I am confused. I am still a little swollen and tight, but look so much better without the turkey waddle. I confused though, as many doctors on this site have said that one year from now I will not look the same as I do now. How long does a facelift last? I thought it was supposed to look good for years, until the natural process of aging "catches up".
