Can I Get the Appearance of a Facelift with Noninvasive Procedures?

Aging inevitably brings wrinkles, lines, and skin that appears lax. However, you don’t just have to tolerate these ways that the years show up on your face. Although a facelift is an effective way to address these signs of aging, not everyone is ready or willing to undergo surgery. 

At Lansdowne Aesthetic Center, we have good news for those seeking noninvasive ways to create a more youthful and lifted look. Advances in noninvasive cosmetic treatments now offer options that can help you achieve a more youthful appearance without going under the knife. 

Read on to learn what’s possible with noninvasive procedures and how you can achieve the refreshed, younger look you desire.

About noninvasive facelifts

A noninvasive facelift is one that doesn’t involve surgery, incisions, or significant downtime. Though these treatments won’t work exactly like a traditional facelift, they can effectively tighten, smooth, and rejuvenate your skin for a refreshed, younger look.

Several noninvasive procedures have become popular for their ability to lift and firm the skin. Here are ways we offer facelift like effects without surgery:Radiofrequency treatments

Radiofrequency treatments use energy to heat the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin. Radiofrequency devices help achieve a smoother, brighter complexion on the face and neck. 

At Lansdowne Aesthetic Center, we offer INTRAcel RF- microneedling, which uses incredibly thin needles to deliver radiofrequency energy to various skin depths. INTRAcel effectively treats wrinkles, fine lines, loose skin, stretch marks, scars, and acne scars and stimulates collagen production.

Treatment is best for people with mild-to-moderate skin laxity, fine lines, and wrinkles. You experience gradual improvement over several sessions, with optimal results seen after three to six months. INTRAcel requires minimal to no downtime. 

Injectables

We can offer a combination of injectable dermal fillers and Botox® to provide you with a comprehensive look that smooths lines, fills in hollow areas, and accentuates features, like your lips and cheeks.

Dermal fillers don’t lift the skin in the same way as a surgical facelift, but they can restore lost volume and provide a more youthful contour to the face. 

Botox works by relaxing the muscles that cause fine lines and wrinkles, particularly around the eyes, forehead, and between the eyebrows. Though Botox doesn’t physically lift the skin, it can create a smoother, more youthful look by reducing wrinkles that contribute to an aged appearance.

Dermal fillers are best for softening the look of lost volume loss in the cheeks, under-eye hollows, and sagging skin around the mouth and jawline. Botox helps ease the appearance of dynamic wrinkles caused by facial movements. 

Results are noticeable right away or within a few days. Side effects and downtime are minimal. Expect dermal filler results to last six months to a year, and Botox results to last about three to four months. 

Laser rejuvenation

We provide customized laser services to smooth lines and wrinkles and to tighten sagging skin, achieving many of the desirable effects of a facelift. Laser treatments also erase sun damage. 

You may choose Broadband Light treatment to treat age spots, broken blood vessels, and skin discoloration. 

Laser rejuvenation requires multiple treatments to achieve the desired effects, but each visit comes with minimal downtime. The benefits are noticeable within just a few months as your collagen remodels.

Will it look like I had a facelift?

Although noninvasive treatments can deliver noticeable improvements, it’s important to have realistic expectations. They don’t replicate the long-lasting, dramatic results of a surgical facelift. 

However, noninvasive procedures are ideal if you have mild-to-moderate signs of aging and want to enhance your appearance without the risks or recovery associated with surgery. 

We still recommend a facelift as the best option for those with significant skin laxity or deep wrinkles.

Whether you choose noninvasive treatments or surgery depends on your goals, age, skin condition, and personal preferences. During your consultation, we can assess your skin and recommend the best approach to achieve your desired results.

At Lansdowne Aesthetic Center, we offer a wide range of noninvasive treatments that can help you look and feel your best without the need for surgery. If you decide that a facelift is your best option, we can help. Call us today at 703-844-3811, or schedule your appointment on our website.
