A surgical and a non-surgical facelift have something in common: they both intend to revitalize the facial appearance. The non-surgical approach utilizes multiple modalities, none of which require anesthesia or much downtime. Some of the aspects common to a non-surgical facelift include:

• This injectable is a wrinkle reducer and then some. In addition to erasing frown lines and worry lines, Botox can also rejuvenate the eye area by lifting a brow line that has begun to fall below the upper orbital rim of the eye. The results of this part of a non-surgical facelift can last 3 to 6 months.
• Dermal fillers. These injectable products are also used as wrinkle-reducers. However, like Botox, dermal fillers can do more than smooth unwanted creases. Common uses of dermal fillers include refining the definition of the lips, adding volume to the body of the lips, and increasing the contour of the mid-face through cheek augmentation. Fillers can also disguise mild jowls at the jawline. The results of dermal filler treatment can last up to 2 years.
• Laser skin resurfacing. Laser devices are commonly used to address multiple dermatologic concerns. The resurfacing process may be achieved using traditional ablative laser energy or a fractionated technique. Both are safe and effective. Both achieve outstanding results by removing dead and damaged tissue and instigating tissue regeneration through collagen and elastin proliferation. Laser skin resurfacing can improve the skin’s tone, texture, and firmness with minimal downtime.
