<p><strong>2. Filler fatigue is one of the main reasons cited for face lifts in my patients </strong></p> <div> </div> <div>Filler can only achieve so much and some of my patients have reached the point where they’re not getting the results they want from non-surgical procedures. Filler fatigue is where patients have had probably too much <a title="filler" href="/treatment/dermal-filler-injections" target="_blank" rel="noopener">filler</a> injected and rather than having the naturally-lifted effect that they once did, the fillers are now creating a more swollen finish.</div> <div> </div> <div>This is where a face lift would come in.</div> <div> </div> <div>All filler would need to be dissolved first, then we would look to do a deep plane facelift, perhaps with some micro <a title="fat" href="/conditions/fat-reduction/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fat</a> injections, to create a very natural result, working in harmony with the natural contours of the face. The goal of my surgery is always to leave patients looking like themselves, just more refreshed. </div> <div> </div> <p><strong>3. Look for practitioners that specialists in ‘deep-plane’ techniques </strong></p> <div> </div> <div>A deep plane facelift is a surgical procedure where we aim to lift the mid-face - something that is hard to do with the traditional facelift techniques where it’s often just the skin that’s lifted.</div> <div> </div> <div>I combine it with various other methods and the result is a very subtle but incredibly effective lift of the whole face. Patients who undergo this procedure with me will look younger, and more refreshed but will still be recognisable as themselves.</div> <div> </div> <div>The other benefit of having a deep plane facelift is that longevity-wise, it’ll last so much longer than the traditional method of just lifting the skin. </div> <div> </div> <p><strong>4. Be wary of fad procedures like the ‘one stitch face lift’ </strong></p> <div> </div> <div>The aesthetics field can be a murky place, with many charlatans claiming that you can achieve good results with procedures like the ‘one stitch face lift’. I don’t think you’ll achieve great results with a one-stitch facelift. The results also don’t last very long, whereas a proper facelift will have longevity. Threads have issues too as they can often become infected. They’re also a pain to remove and they can cause issues if you decide to have a facelift later down the line. Facial rejuvenation is a holistic discipline – one has to tackle the entire face, and this is not simple. Also, look at managing your skin too!</div> <div> </div> <div>Good skin care is the foundation for any facial interventions, be it surgical or non-surgical. Get any active skin conditions nicely under control first, see a dermatologist if necessary.</div>
