When performed correctly, a facelift is one of the most effective ways to restore a youthful appearance to the face. As with any other type of cosmetic procedure, the success of a facelift depends on the unique talents of the surgeon and the techniques they use.

Below are 5 secrets to a great result with facelifts.

1. Reduction of wrinkles

Another key secret to a great result with facelifts is the ability to reduce the appearance of wrinkles. By using microinjections of the patient’s own fat, it’s possible to completely rejuvenate the skin by getting rid of wrinkles and giving it a healthy glow.

2. Improved skin quality

As well as reducing the appearance of wrinkles, another secret of a successful facelift is to improve the overall quality of the skin. A good facelift will get rid of any loose skin while retaining a natural look and giving the face a more youthful appearance overall.

3. Proper volume

A big factor in achieving the best possible look with a facelift is ensuring good volume around key areas, such as the eyes, the cheeks and mouth. This can be accomplished by using fat injections – leaving the patient with skin that’s not only smooth and free of wrinkles but also with proper fullness.

4. A natural look

Far too many facelifts leave patients with the dreaded stretched look. This is usually because of a combination of the patient not being suitable for surgery, the skill (or thereof) of the surgeon and not using fat injections to restore proper volume.

Dr O’ Daniel takes great care to ensure that his patients are left with extremely natural looking results after surgery.

5. The right candidate

A big part of what makes a successful facelift is the right candidate. This is why Dr O’ Daniel takes the time to assess every patient carefully, not just to ensure that they’re a good candidate physically but also mentally.

A good candidate for a facelift is a person who’s in good physical health and who has a good amount of skin elasticity and good bone structure. The procedure is usually carried out on patients who are over 40 but younger patients can also get a facelift if they’re deemed to be suitable.
