Facial rejuvenation has traditionally required surgery, but lasers can now be used to perform a minimally invasive facelift that yields similar results. For people who desire to renew their appearance but don’t want to go under the knife, this procedure is an excellent alternative. But what is the recovery like, and what is the downtime for a laser facelift.
Aging Skin
The skin loses elasticity over time, owing to a decline in the production of vital proteins such as collagen and elastin, which the skin needs to keep it firm and tight. As a result, wrinkles and fine lines start to appear, and the jawlines and jowls begin to droop. A laser facelift can soften wrinkles, and lift and tone loose skin.
The laser facelift
The laser facelift is a minimally invasive procedure that uses laser energy to tone the lower face and neck.
How it works
Tiny incisions are made through which the fiber optic is introduced into the skin. The laser energy creates a tightening effect on the deep fascia and skin layer below the surface, and also melts the fat.You will notice some instant results, but final results won’t be seen until at least 3 months.
What is the downtime of the laser facelift?
There is no downtime after the laser facelift, so patients are able to safely return to work or resume regular activities. The procedure is quick, safe, and very comfortable.
