What is real in your opinion? In my opinion (not an expert only a woman looking at before and after pictures of various plastic surgeons) most women or men just look a bit younger or refreshed. However, some Hollywood stars like Christie Brinkley or Lauren Koslow look 30 years younger as their real age. How is that possible? Is it the money they spent? Is it that their plastic surgeons are artists while others are just handymen? Do these women get secret proceeding that regular women don't know about?
Answer: I want to look 30 years younger overnight! Generally a face lift can take 10-12 years off of a patients appearance. Regarding Hollywood stars looking much younger than their actual ages, this can be attributed to a number of factors. Consider that these stars have not been progressively aging and then they have a facelift and BAM, they look 30 years younger. There are many factors that may have helped these stars continue to look young. Maintaining a healthy weight and not yo-young on the scale. Staying out of the sun and wearing good sunscreen when outdoors. Not smoking. Not drinking. Healthy diet. Plenty of exercise. Starting a good skin care regimen at a young age. Then comes the surgery and fillers. Botox, Juvederm, face lift, neck lift, brow lift and eye lift are all tools in the plastic surgeons tool box. These tools can help turn back the clock. We have all seen examples of disasters when these tools have been overused or used by untrained or inexperienced doctors. But when these tools are used properly, the result can be wonderful!

Answer: Take facial shape back towards how they were! Modern SMAS facelifts are designed to take facial shape and skin tone back towards how they were before the ageing process caused the face to sag excessively. This is usually around 8 – 12 years of rejuvenation in treated areas. This means that if you are 50, it helps you return to the appearance of say 40 years of age in treated areas and the final result still appears age-appropriate for your decade of life. Naturally the ageing process does continue, however sun protection, good skin care and a healthy lifestyle should reduce the development of future ageing changes. A further benefit of modern SMAS deep support techniques is that they slow the ageing process in the treated area so, although the surgery cannot ‘stop the clock’, you should age slower than your friends.

Answer: How Much Younger Will a Facelift Make You Look? This is a great question, because it is very frequently asked in my practie. However, the answer isn't straight forward, because the primary goal of a facelift is to make you look better. In certain circumstances, where a patient looks prematurely aged (see the link below), a facelift can take away 20 years or more. In discussing results with my patients, a typical response is that they feel more confident about their appearance in photos, and in public. Although I cannot comment on what procedures a particular celebrity did or didn't have, their appearances are most likely attributable to great genetics, a healthy lifestyle, and possibly aesthetic procedures.

Answer: 10 Years Is a Reasonable Goal I tell patients that after a facelift, when combined with volume restoration with fat transfer, skin resurfacing if necessary, and eyelid surgery if necessary, they can reliably turn back the clock about ten years. In some patients with minimal sun damage or skin wrinkling and excellent skin elasticity, the rejuvenation effect can be even greater. Genetics play an important factor, as well, and patients who address aging changes early will cumulatively have greater effects over time than the patient who waits until the aging changes are more pronounced. The surgical techniques and the aesthetic sense of the surgeon make a big difference. For every Christie Brinkley, there are numerous examples of celebrities who unfortunately look “done”.

Answer: Facelifts Take Off 10 to 20 Years A well-done facelift will take off about 10 to 20 years from your face while still looking natural and appropriate. Celebrities who are able to age gracefully generally are blessed with good bone structure and skin, plus spend a great deal of time and money to maintain it. In addition to finding facial plastic surgeons with expertise in aesthetics, they use skin resurfacing techniques such as lasers, ultrasound and chemical peels, plus well-placed fillers and Botox. You can find plastic surgery professionals with the same level of expertise as those the stars use throughout all areas of the country. For instance, I studied with some of the top facial plastic surgeons in the world in Beverly Hills, but I practice in North Carolina. I hope this helps.
