Facelift Surgery

Surgery will last far longer than any non-surgical treatment such as dermal fillers. Facelift cosmetic surgery results are however also dependent on a healthy lifestyle along with a good skin regime relatively speaking.

Most of our patients are still seeing the benefits of facelift surgery many years following surgery.

2 weeks is the average healing time following facelift cosmetic surgery. Although it will take 6 weeks until things go back to normal. It is at this point that our facelift surgeon will see you for your follow up consultation and be able to give you the all clear.

Although it may seem like a long time you will find yourself being able to restore normal daily activities a lot sooner and you’ll be surprised as to how quickly the initial swelling goes down.

Although everybody heals differently from facelift cosmetic surgery, we suggest all patients to take a minimum of 1-2 weeks away from work. We also advise against any strenuous activities such as exercise during this initial healing period.

We will be able to monitor your healing progress during your follow up appointments post-surgery.

When it comes to facelift surgery, our surgeons are experienced in achieving long lasting and natural looking results. Furthermore, they are experts in creating scars in places that are hard to detect that will keep your friends and family guessing.

If you don’t want anyone to realise you’ve had a facelift, we recommend you wait three weeks before showing people, and change the colour or style of your hair. They’ll think you look fantastic and refreshed – but the results are so natural and flattering that nobody will guess that facelift cosmetic surgery has been performed.

There is not an ideal age to have a facelift, however one of the best indicators is sagging skin.

Generally speaking, there is usually no indication towards needing a facelift before the age of 45, for these patients we would usually suggest a non-surgical treatments.

To put you at ease and in order to give you a full insight into the patient journey, we recommend our ‘buddy system’; where we can put you in touch with previous patients who have experienced the facelift procedure from CSP at our cosmetic surgery clinic in London.

Yes and no. On the one hand, some patients could benefit from having a number of other procedures such as a brow-lift, neck lift or eyelid surgery, however, none of these procedures will be able to address the symptoms which can be averted via facelift surgery.

Our expert facelift surgeons will be able to talk your through the range of treatment options available to you during your initial consultation.
