Non-Surgical Facelift Options
Radiofrequency and Ultrasound
Non-surgical facelifts may also involve radiofrequency energy, ultrasound, or infrared light waves to heat up and stimulate deeper skin layers without damaging the surface. Heating the underlying tissue causes minor inflammation and swelling, which triggers the production of natural collagen and elastin. Facial skin becomes firmer and lifted with a more toned appearance. The final results emerge gradually over a few months. Several sessions about 4 weeks apart may be recommended for optimal skin tightening.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are gel-like injectable substances that add volume under the skin, filling facial wrinkles from the inside out. The most popular treatments contain hyaluronic acid (Restylane and Juvederm) or calcium hydroxyapatite (Radiesse).
With tiny injections just under the skin’s surface, dermal fillers can iron out wrinkles and folds, restore lost facial volume, enhance shallow contours of the face, plump up hollow under-eye circles, and even augment lips. Results are visible right after the procedure, typically lasting 6 months and up to a year or longer before the body gradually absorbs the substance. Many patients repeat these injectable treatments periodically to maintain their refreshed appearance.
Botox and Dysport
Botox and Dysport are brand names of products containing botulinum toxin, which blocks nerve signals and relaxes overactive facial muscles. Skillful injections can soften wrinkles and fine lines, such as crow’s feet around the eyes, forehead creases, and frown lines between the eyebrows. Effects are temporary, lasting 3-4 months typically. Repeat injections are needed every 3 months to maintain a smooth appearance. Botox can be an excellent way to rejuvenate the face when used together with dermal fillers and other treatments.
Laser Treatments
Laser skin resurfacing utilizes concentrated beams of laser light to remove damaged outer layers of facial skin. By stripping away older epidermis, this treatment prompts the regeneration of new skin cells, which emerge fresh, glowing, and tight.
Laser procedures can address various cosmetic concerns, such as wrinkles, sun damage, enlarged pores, and scars. For instance, Fraxel lasers create tiny microscopic wounds in the tissue, stimulating collagen production and regeneration. Erbium lasers can remove very thin layers of skin for a lighter resurfacing treatment. Several procedures are usually required to achieve optimal skin tightening over time.
Our Unique Approach to Non-Surgical Facelift
At the Anti-Aging Center of Boca, we take an innovative dual-technology approach to achieve dramatic and natural-looking facelift results without surgery. We utilize a powerful pairing of acoustic lipolysis and HIFU (high-intensity focused ultrasound) that work synergistically to refine facial contours and reveal a more youthful appearance.
The first technology, acoustic lipolysis, safely eliminates unwanted fat using concentrated sound vibrations. These waves gently disrupt the membranes of fat cells at multiple depths below the skin’s surface, causing them to release their fatty contents so the body can eliminate them naturally. This allows us to precisely sculpt and contour areas like the jawline and cheeks by reducing small pockets of unwanted tissue. This procedure is completely painless and leads to impressive facial rejuvenation.
We then deploy our second technology, HIFU, to tighten and lift the skin. The ultrasound waves vibrate 20,000 times each second and penetrate deep into the tissue to stimulate new collagen production. This procedure lifts sagging skin and erases fine lines and wrinkles. The focused nature of the ultrasound also protects the surface levels of the skin during treatment for faster healing without unwanted side effects.
By harnessing the body’s natural healing response and these advanced technologies, we can help patients achieve a refreshed, youthful appearance non-invasively. Our patients are amazed at how a 30-minute session delivers at least 1 inch of fat reduction and significant tightening. Their skin becomes firmer and continues improving over the following months. With no needles, scalpels, or prolonged downtime, our nonsurgical treatments revolutionize how people address early signs of aging.
Recovery and Results
Recovery can vary widely among different facelift options available today. Procedures like laser skin resurfacing, dermal fillers, and neuromodulators (Botox or Dysport) may cause some redness, swelling, bruising, and tenderness lasting from a few days to two weeks. These treatments often require special care, like avoiding sun exposure and applying special ointments during healing. While minimally invasive procedures certainly rejuvenate the face with fewer risks than surgery, patients still must contend with a visible recovery process. Luckily, there are better options.
Benefits of Our Non-Surgical Facelift
Our nonsurgical facelift differs from laser resurfacing, dermal fillers, and Botox because it is completely non-invasive. We combine acoustic lipolysis to eliminate fat with HIFU to lift and tighten skin. Our patients do not need any downtime because no injections or lasers touch the skin surface. They can return to normal routines immediately after a session. While internal tissue continues improving for months, patients do not experience any external swelling, marks, or bruises.
Our approach is ideal for people seeking dramatic rejuvenation without telltale signs of cosmetic procedures or inconvenient recovery periods hampering their busy lifestyles. We can reveal a more youthful and contoured face with no discomfort.
Choosing the Right Practitioner
Selecting the right doctor for non-surgical skin tightening is crucial. Patients should seek an experienced professional with specialized training in the latest techniques. We recommend verifying the doctor’s credentials and asking how many non-surgical facelift procedures they have performed.
It is also important to understand how the technologies for liquid facelifts differ. Common options include ultrasound skin tightening, laser resurfacing, microneedling with radiofrequency, injectable fillers, and Botox. However, few practitioners offer the innovative pairing of acoustic lipolysis with HIFU. This proprietary technology was developed by our talented practitioner, Nina Presman.
Nina is a body rejuvenation specialist with decades of experience performing non-surgical facelifts. She has always been an early adopter of innovative technology for eliminating fat and tightening skin. Her amazing new device, Ageless Body Sculpting Plus, allows her to enhance facial contours while improving skin tone, elasticity, and firmness.
Unlike many clinics offering just one technique, Nina Presman customizes each patient’s treatment plan using both acoustic lipolysis and HIFU to address their unique cosmetic goals. Her mastery of these technologies produces stunning results that cannot be matched by either technique alone. Patients benefit from tailored facial shaping and comprehensive rejuvenation in a single session with no surgical procedure or downtime.
When seeking the best option for non-surgical facelift results, look no further than the Anti-Aging Center of Boca. Nina’s advanced dual-technology approach has made her one of the most sought-after facial rejuvenation experts in Miami.
The Costs of Non-Surgical Facelift Treatments
Cost often plays a significant role in choosing the right procedure for facial rejuvenation. Patients can expect to invest anywhere from $500 to $4,000 per treatment. However, costs vary widely based on factors like:
Technology and materials used – Lasers, radiofrequency, injectable fillers, ultrasound, and others are priced differently. Advanced or combination technologies are typically more expensive.
Number of treatments needed – Some methods require 4-6 sessions spaced weeks or months apart, while combination approaches may involve fewer visits.
Practitioner experience and demand – Top facial rejuvenation doctors often charge higher fees, especially those offering the latest therapies that deliver amazing results.
Our acoustic lipolysis + HIFU procedure costs much less than any other option. At the same time, it produces visible results even after a single session. By eliminating unwanted fat and lifting sagging skin, Nina achieves long-lasting improvements that are hard to get through other techniques.
Conclusion
Non-surgical facelift options offer dramatic rejuvenation without the risks and long recovery. While treatments like lasers, fillers, and Botox provide incremental improvements, acoustic lipolysis paired with HIFU ultrasound takes facial transformation to new heights. This proprietary technology refines facial contours by melting away unwanted fat while also tightening and lifting the overlying skin. Our patients refresh their appearance in several sessions without discomfort, injections, or downtime. We turn back the clock and restore youthful vitality by harnessing the latest innovations in non-surgical technology. Our center delivers long-lasting results with maximum comfort and convenience.
