Are There Non-Surgical Facelift Treatments?

The signs of aging creep in thanks to loss of collagen, which leaves your skin loose and sagging. Without this most important of support structures, your facial tissues, such as fat pads and connective tissues, can begin to droop. This leads to wrinkles and is when jowls start to appear, your jawline becomes less defined, and your lips and cheeks become thinner. The facial heart- shape that’s the mark of youth becomes more squared off, changing the contours of your features. 

You don’t have to sit idly by while this happens, though. There are non-surgical facelift options that will induce collagen production, restore lost volume to your facial features, and lift your features into a more youthful contour. Dr. Zenovia has the unmatched talent and intensive facial anatomy knowledge necessary to put recent cosmetic enhancement innovations to their advantage, giving you the results of a facelift without you having to undergo a surgical procedure.

Non-Surgical Facelift Options

Thread lifts are becoming more common and provide both a physical and biological lift to your facial features. This treatment begins with anesthetic, after which, Dr. Zenovia will insert a mesh of threads beneath your skin. We use NovaThreads, which are polydioxanone (PDO), a material that stimulates fibroblasts to increase collagen fiber production. At first, the threads do the lifting of your tissues. As collagen grows, it surrounds the threads, creating a matrix of its own support. Over time, the threads are absorbed, leaving behind this collagen scaffolding for longer lasting, beautiful, and natural results.

Sculptra® Aesthetic is another collagen booster made of biodegradable, biocompatible poly-L-lactic acid, which stimulates collagen production in the dermis. Sculptra® Aesthetic fills in deep wrinkles and replaces lost volume for a more youthful appearance. As the PLLA interacts with your tissues, collagen fibers become more prolific, holding your tissues in place the same as they did in their younger state.

The Juvéderm® line has turned the science of cosmetic sculpting into an art, with a variety of hyaluronic acid-based (HA) fillers. HA is naturally produced by the body to nourish and hydrate the skin, keeping it supple and looking naturally beautiful. Juvéderm® fillers are precisely engineered with specific consistencies to enhance your features and tackle a multitude of aging issues. Whether you’re looking to plump your lips, decrease the depth of facial folds and wrinkles, subtly smooth away finer lines and wrinkles, or enhance cheek volume, ZENA Medical has a Juvéderm® for that. 

The Restylane® line is another HA-based family of fillers with carefully formulated consistencies to address almost any aging concern from wrinkles, deep nasolabial folds, cheek volume loss, and more. HA’s nourishing qualities keep skin supple, which helps keep your collagen network healthy and thriving. 

Radiesse® fills in lost volume and stimulates collagen production for up to a year, so not only is your face a more pleasing, youthful shape, your skin has more support to maintain its elasticity.
