It seems that after a year many of the facelift fail on people over the age of 60. Is the face of an older person harder to get good lasting results?
Answer: The Best Age For Facelift There is some evidence that a facelift procedure will look better and last longer on a younger patient But don't dismay. More important than your chronological age is your physiologic age, which is determined by your health, genetics and lifestyle. Many patients over the age of 60 are perfect candidates for facial rejuvenation especially when measures are taken to compensate for age-related changes in bone, fat and skin elasticity. Seek a surgeon with experience and expertise in facial rejuvenation that also understands the biology of aging.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Facelift Surgery on Patients 60 years old Thank you for your question. It is understandable that you may see some facelifts that over pulled or are over tight skin. Nevertheless, a modern well done facelift actually involves repositioning the tissue under the surface to a previous position. Therefore, this means lifting the lateral cheek and tightening the neck in a more oblique direction. This allows for the tissue under the surface to be back where it was a few years ago and the skin re-drapes very naturally and nit in a tight over pulled manner. This is the basic essence of a modern facelift.

Answer: What is the right age for a facelift You are at a perfect age for a facelift and it is not harder to get a good result. Aslong you’re healthy and have realistic expectations, facelift is a great optionfor your aging face. I recommend local anesthesia and twilight sedation insteadof general anesthesia. I have performed well over 2,500 facelifts under localanesthesia with oral sedation for the past ten years. Without doubt it is safeand well tolerated by patients. Compare to the traditional facelift proceduresthat are performed under general anesthesia, the post operative complicationsassociated with local anesthesia cases are lower and risk of bleeding isminimized.

Answer: Facelift results at any age Everyone ages differently, so when looking at facelift candidates and assessing their potential facelift results, I focus less on the age of the patient and more on how the patient's face has aged. Good candidates for a facelift include those who are experiencing sagging skin on the face or jawline, volume loss, deep lines or creases, or creases and folds on the neck. However, with age the elasticity of skin reduces, which may limit the best outcomes, but overall you can still expect very good results. You should consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon who has expertise in facelift procedures so he can examine your face and give you a more detailed answer as to what sort of results you can expect from surgery. An experienced facial plastic surgeon should be able to provide you with significant improvements. Additionally, it is important to take care of your skin and face after your facelift to slow the future signs of aging down. After surgery your face will start the aging process again, so if you take care of your skin with a good skin care routine and daily sunscreen, you can slow down the process.
