Introduction to Non-Surgical Facelift

A facelift can produce beautiful, long-lasting results but does come with recovery time. At Élevé Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, Dr. Olatomide (Tomi) Familusi understands that some of our Atlanta patients desire improvement in their facial aesthetics without the commitment to an extended recovery period, potential surgical risks, and the financial investment that comes with a traditional facelift. Using a combination of dermal fillers, neuromodulators, and other non-surgical techniques, Dr. Familusi offers patients a non-surgical facelift for a comprehensively rejuvenated appearance in a series of painless treatment sessions.

What is a Non-Surgical Facelift?

A non-surgical facelift is a combination of minimally invasive or non-surgical procedures such as microneedling, dermal fillers, or Botox that provide a short-term enhancement of the face. Unlike a traditional surgical facelift, no incisions are created to tighten the skin or add volume to the underlying facial muscles. The result is a relatively quick and easy way to look amazing for your age!

What Are the Benefits of a Non-Surgical Facelift?

The most important benefit of this procedure is that it’s non-surgical, meaning little to no downtime and no facility or anesthesia fees. Other benefits that our Atlanta, GA, non-surgical facelift patients notice are that the procedure:

Reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and skin folds
Produces immediate results
Is a fast treatment (compared to surgery)

Who Are the Best Candidates for a Non-Surgical Facelift?

You may be a good candidate for a nonsurgical facelift if you have fine lines or lost elasticity in the skin, are experiencing age-related volume loss, prefer a short-term enhancement, and want to avoid surgery.

Dr. Familusi advises patients experiencing chronic or pre-existing skin conditions to schedule a consultation to determine if a non-surgical facelift would be appropriate, given their health and medical history.
