When considering a non-surgical facelift in Singapore, the key is to pay attention to what has changed in your appearance over the years; these changes can often be treated easily with non-surgical methods. Non-surgical options for facelifts fall into three categories: replenishing lost volume, resurfacing the superficial skin, and tightening deeper tissue. Generally, a range of treatments is used in combination to achieve your overall facial rejuvenation goals.
Here are the most common facelift treatments:
1. Botox
Botox is the most commonly used non-surgical treatment. It is a neuro-modulator injected into the muscle, which causes it to temporarily relax. The relaxed muscle can no longer contract and therefore, cannot create a wrinkle.
Botox injections effectively treat fine lines and wrinkles between the eyebrows, forehead creases, crow’s feet around the eyes, and other wrinkles in the upper face region. If you have loose skin creating banding in the neck, sometimes botox is also the answer.
2. Dermal fillers
Falling cheeks and new jowls are commonly caused by a loss of facial volume, creating the illusion of sagging skin. This non-surgical facelift can restore the skin volume, in just a few minutes and you’ll look like you had a facelift. These procedures are sometimes called “lunchtime facelifts” or “liquid facelifts.”
Dermal fillers fill lines and spaces, plumping them up to increase volume. They are used for the lower parts of the face. The cheeks, the lips, or any other sunken areas of the face.
3. Fat transfer
An alternative to dermal fillers is fat transfer. Fat can be removed from other areas of your body, then reinjected into the face to address the volume loss. A non-surgical fat transfer can be used to address laugh lines, smile lines, crow’s feet, lips, acne scars, skin depressions, concave cheeks, and any other sunken areas of the face.
4. Laser lifts
If the above non-surgical options don’t fully address your issues, you can opt for an addition of a minimally invasive laser lift. Laser lift procedures utilize laser energy subdermally to create a controlled injury that melts fat and tightens skin. Laser lifts are ideal for the lower face and neck and offer permanent results that instantly chisel and sculpt.
Laser lifts require small incisions under the chin and behind the ears. A fine laser is threaded under the skin to remove fat and tighten the area.
