Question:
I am a 49 year old female looking to have a facelift, but how long do they last? Are there certain factors that make it more likely to need a second procedure in the future?
Answer:
There are several types of facelift procedures that accomplish different goals. Facelift results can last typically anywhere from 7-10 years or more depending on the type of procedure that is performed. The fact that you are 49 years old makes it more likely that you made need a second procedure in the future simply because you have a longer life expectancy. Start by having a consultation with a board certified facial plastic surgeon.
