For a modern day fountain of youth, more and more men and women are turning to plastic surgery. When most people think of plastic surgery, they might think of breast augmentation or the ever-famous nose job (or rhinoplasty). But there are actually many more plastic surgery procedures than these, all designed to help people look and feel younger. One such procedure is the facelift. A face lift is a great way to freshen up your look and return your youthful beauty. However, there are a few important factors to consider if you are thinking about this type of plastic surgery.
Problem Areas
What are the problem areas you are trying to solve? A face lift is a great way to tackle sagging skin throughout the facial area, but there are other procedures that can better target specific areas of the face. If you are unhappy with your droopy eyelids, then you might want an eyelid lift instead. Likewise, your wrinkles might be better removed with an injectable filler option.
Age
Age is an important factor when considering a face lift. Multiple face lifts can make it increasingly difficult to create a natural look. If you are younger and just beginning to show signs of aging, then it might be better to wait a few years to have a face lift. In the meantime, you can use less invasive fillers and lasers to correct facial issues.
Cost
An obvious consideration for a face lift should be its cost. This type of plastic surgery can be a bit more expensive due to the treatment area and detail involved. Breast augmentation and liposuction are usually about the same price, if not a bit cheaper. The cost ultimately depends on the plastic surgeon you are visiting.
