Liquid Facelift: The minimal approach for a complete facelift

The Liquid Facelift is a minimally invasive, non-surgical method to achieve a rejuvenated, youthful appearance.

With the right skill, injectables such as derma fillers (e.g., hyaluronic acid) and biostimulators can be used to create a non-surgical lift.

Using a special technique of injections, the Liquid Facelift reduces facial wrinkles, increases volume and releases sagging skin to create a fresher, more vibrant appearance.

The filler entry points follow Dr. Mauricio de Maio’s 8-point lift regimen on the mid and upper face, specifically modified and enhanced by my own protocol. The results of a Liquid Facelift can be incredible and sometimes compared to those achieved through surgical procedures.

Together with you, I will design a treatment program for your Liquid Facelift that is specifically tailored to your face and aesthetic goals. Some of my patients choose to have multiple fillers applied at the same time during one visit. Often, I take the approach with patients to schedule treatments in multiple steps for gradual improvement over a longer period of time. For me, this question comes at the beginning of the treatment.

Before the Liquid Lift, your skin is cleansed and disinfected. For the injections, very fine, blunt cannulas are used to deliver the fillers into the skin.  That is why it is called skin tightening without surgery.

The treatment is painless and most patients return to work and their normal activities immediately.

It is my understanding that if you want minimally invasive, outpatient procedures to improve your appearance to the maximum, you are predestined for the gentle Liquid Facelift.

You should consider a Liquid Facelift if you look older or more tired than you feel and want to improve the sagging skin on your face. Many of my patients also prefer a Liquid Facelift if you are younger and a surgical facelift is too invasive a procedure.

The Liquid Facelift has the potential to correct the following problematic areas simultaneously in just one treatment:

• Nasolabial folds (lines from the nose to the corners of the mouth).
• Marionette lines (narrow lines from the corner of the mouth to the chin)
• sagging, flat cheeks
• hollows under the eyes
• wrinkles and furrows in the forehead
• wrinkles around the eyes and lips
• loss of volume in the cheeks

Even though a Liquid Facelift can achieve comparable results to a surgical facelift in many patients, there are limits to the method. If there is too much excess skin, only minimal improvements can be achieved with a Liquid Lift and for an effective facelift I perform a surgical facelift. The age at which this point is reached varies from individual to individual. I will be happy to advise you on both methods and together we will find the best treatment.

Since fillers such as hyaluronic acid are used in a Liquid Facelift, the effect wears off again over time, because the fillers are broken down by the body over time. How long the results last depends on the fillers used and the individual metabolism.

On average, however, one can assume that the effect will last at least 1 to 1.5 years. However, because I also use products that stimulate collagen production in the skin during this treatment, the results last almost 2 years due to the build-up of the skin’s own collagen.

Depending on the combination of fillers, you may see an improvement in your face immediately or the change may be gradual. As with any injection, slight swelling and redness may occur at the injection site during a Liquid Facelift. Occasionally, bruising may occur, which usually disappears within a week.
A short time later, you will look naturally and subtly rejuvenated and refreshed. The dermal fillers take effect after the first to second week.

In my practice, your well-being and an optimal result is our top priority. Each patient has an individuality whose needs are the focus of my treatments. Therefore, it is not always possible to give a general estimate of the costs. Therefore, please understand that we cannot give a generally valid price for a Liquid Facelift. The costs of each treatment also depend on the personal starting situation and your wishes.
