Tips to Maintain Your Facelift Results

by Dr. Steven Wallach

After undergoing a plastic surgery procedure, most patients are looking to maintain their results for as long as possible. We have put together a list of tips to help you extend your facelift results for as long as possible for a youthful-looking you!

Always Use Sunscreen

Because sun exposure is one of the leading causes of signs of aging, wearing sunscreen daily is very important for maintaining your facelift results. When you don’t wear sunscreen, UV rays can break down the proteins in your skin, leading to lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin.

Never Smoke

Smoking in general is bad for you overall health and can cause premature aging leading to fine lines and wrinkles.

Use Medical-Grade Skincare Products

Choosing the right skincare products for your skin type and concerns is also an important step in maintaining your facelift results. Medical-grade skincare products contain peptides, antioxidants, and retinoids, which are great products for keeping the skin looking youthful.

Follow a Healthy Diet

Nourishing your skin from the inside out is also a great way to keep your skin looking great. Be sure to eat a balanced, healthy diet filled with fresh fruits, veggies, and whole grains for the greatest impact. And don’t forget to take it easy on the sugar and greasy foods.  Also, stay well hydrated and drink a lot of water.

Take Advantage of Nonsurgical Treatments

Noninvasive treatments such as fillers, Botox, and laser procedures can often help to improve your results as well as extend them. At our office, we offer an array of noninvasive procedures and treatments to help you look your best!
