What Is a Liquid Facelift?

A liquid facelift is a customized, non-surgical solution for combating early signs of facial aging, including lines, wrinkles, creases, and volume loss. Dr. Small uses a variety of leading dermal fillers and neuromodulators to restore a refreshed, energized appearance and heightened confidence. Some fillers, like Radiesse, are known as “biostimulators” because rather than filling in lines, they promote collagen regrowth. Enhanced collagen output bolsters youthful facial volume from within and encourages a more robust facial scaffolding. Dr. Small often pairs a liquid facelift with fat grafting or fat transfer. This is an exciting process that removes adipocytes (fat) from areas of the body where you have excess (such as the thighs or buttocks) and strategically places it into areas of the face where you need it. This is a two-part process, but there is never a worry about an allergic reaction or rejection because it is your own tissue. Dr. Small has performed liquid facelifts for numerous happy patients who leave his office looking naturally younger.

The Liquid Facelift Procedure

During your consultation, Dr. Small will evaluate your skin carefully and listen to your concerns about your appearance. He will then devise a plan for your liquid facelift in order to expertly place the injections in the proper dosage.

A topical anesthetic cream will be used to numb the injection areas, and you will have to wait approximately 45 minutes for it to take effect. If you are to receive a number of injections, your liquid facelift may occur in stages of two or three treatments.

For fat grafting, liposuction is used to remove the excess fat from the donor area(s), and the fat is carefully treated and then injected into the facial areas that have lost volume.

Recovering from a Liquid Facelift

Recovery from a liquid facelift will depend a great deal on the number of injections you receive and whether you are receiving fat grafts. Dr. Small will tell you all you need to know to heal as fast as possible, and he will watch your progress. Generally, recovery from injections is fast, with only minor swelling, bruising, and soreness for a few days.

Liquid Facelift Frequently Asked Questions

Is a Liquid Facelift Painful?

No. Your skin will be numbed with a topical anesthetic prior to your injections, ensuring a stress-free visit. Afterward, you can take over-the-counter painkillers to alleviate any minor soreness at the injection sites if needed.

How Much Does a Liquid Facelift Cost?

Pricing for a liquid facelift varies, as each treatment is completely unique and individualized. Factors such as the extent of the changes desired, the specific injectables chosen, and whether you combine a liquid facelift with other treatments will all influence the cost. Dr. Small will offer you a transparent and customized quote after your consultation is complete.

Can a Liquid Facelift Be Combined With Other Treatments?

Yes. As mentioned, Dr. Small frequently pairs a liquid facelift with facial fat transfer. He also performs a broad range of transformative solutions for the skin, face, breasts, and body and can tailor your treatment plan to your specific aesthetic goals.

What Kind of Injectables Are Used?

A liquid facelift is usually performed with a mixture of hyaluronic acid-based fillers like Juvederm and Restylane and neuromodulators like BOTOX. Biostimulators such as Radiesse may also be employed to enhance collagen production.

Can a Liquid Facelift Address Sagging Skin?

While a liquid facelift can address early signs of aging, like wrinkles and volume loss, there is a limit to the changes it can produce. Patients with more pronounced skin sagging will likely benefit more from a surgical facelift or mini facelift.

Can a Liquid Facelift Address a Double Chin?

To reduce submental fullness, Dr. Small can combine your liquid facelift with neck liposuction, sculpting and refining your profile for a more streamlined appearance.

How Quickly Can I Get Back to Work After a Liquid Facelift?

Luckily, there is no downtime after a liquid facelift. You can return to work, school, shopping, or leisure time right away. However, you should avoid exercise, heat exposure, and alcohol for at least 24 hours.
