What is a liquid facelift???

A ‘liquid facelift’ is a term popularized for non-surgical facial rejuvenation in which filler is placed in various aspects of the face in order to achieve a more youthful, refreshed look. There is no specific recipe for where and how much filler is injected – the treatment is individualized to the specific patient, their anatomy, and their overall aesthetic goals.

I am not a big fan of the term. Why? Because fillers don’t actually lift the face. I think the term ‘liquid facelift’ is misleading and confusing for patients.

Only surgery can truly lift things. Fillers add volume. It’s my opinion that as individuals age, the best outcomes often come from the result of surgery, judicious volume replacement by way of filler placement, and dedicated attention to the overlying skin.
