For those seeking an alternative to going under the knife to achieve the results of a facelift, they can use non-surgical treatments such as Botox, according to Dr Thevendra from the APSARAS Clinic.

Dr Thevendra suggests that by eliminating the classic signs of ageing when they are in their mid 30s and 40s, using techniques to form a non-surgical facelift, women may delay the want and need for more invasive surgery.

Dr Thevendra said:

“For the right candidate, a facelift can be extremely effective for eliminating jowls and repositioning sagging facial tissue, but not everyone is ready for a surgical procedure.”

“Many patients who are concerned about wrinkles and volume loss can benefit from Botox and injectable dermal fillers,” she continued.

If used in combination with each other, the expert pointed out that fillers and Botox may help create a “dramatic overall effect”, and results that the patient should notice straight away.

While some men and women may eventually consider more complicated surgery, like a facelift, further down the line, Dr Thevendra thinks less-invasive treatments are a fine choice for men and women who are starting to develop minor lines and small wrinkles.
