The sad truth is that we start to lose collagen and elastin in our 30’s! Each decade we lose another 5-10% of our volume! Add in environmental factors, bad habits and genetics and it almost seems hopeless. This loss of volume contributes to sagging, wrinkles, lines and folds.
A Liquid Facelift is a technique that combines advanced long-term dermal fillers, such as Sculptra®, Juvederm® Voluma®, Bellafill®, and the like, with BOTOX® and Dysport® to lift and contour facial features. This is different than just treating one specific area. It is designed to address the entire face.

How is a Liquid Face Lift different from (short term) dermal filler or toxin treatments?

How much does it cost?
No two faces are the same. This is the issue with trying to provide a “packaged” Liquid Face Lift. The process involves a customized treatment plan to address your entire face. Because there are no cookie cutter Liquid Lifts, it makes preset costs quite challenging. The amount of product needed will vary from individual to individual, therefore, the cost will vary from person to person.
How Long Will It Last?
A Liquid Face Lift can last up to three years, depending on the products used and the facial area treated. If Botox or Dysport was used, they will require maintenance two to three times a year.
Results from Liquid Face Lift procedures can range from subtle to astonishing. It is common for patients who have had Liquid Face Lift procedures to say that they receive compliments on their appearance without others knowing that they have done anything. In some instances, the results can be so uplifting that they change an individual’s life.
As with any cosmetic medical procedure, results vary from patient to patient.
