How can you get a natural facelift WITHOUT surgery

RENO, Nev. - Jan. 2, 2018 - PRLog -- What is a liquid facelift?

Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon, Dr. Kyle Yamamoto often receives this question from his patients: "How can I get a natural lift without surgery?"

This has been a very popular topic and is worthy of some discussion. With the advances of dermal fillers, we can offer a myriad of non-surgical procedures to lift, enhance, and smooth areas of the face without surgery.  So how does non-surgical lifting work?

The term "liquid facelift" can be useful to help you imagine what a liquid (in this case, a dermal filler such as Juvéderm Voluma®) can do to lift the face. Think of your cheeks and chin as the "coat hanger" of your face.  When we are young and have nice, full cheekbones, the skin of our midface sits up nice and high. As we age and lose volume in the cheeks, the skin in this area starts to droop and sag and cause the classic signs of facial aging.  We see more smile lines, facial creases, and drooping cheeks. The coat hanger's strength is lost, and the face begins to fall.

A dermal filler can be injected into the cheek area to create more volume. This "liquid" being injected creates the fullness that youthful cheeks have. Making the cheeks rounder and fuller helps naturally bring up the skin in this area and create some lift. This reestablishes the coat hanger of your face and gives you that subtle "facelift" through the cheek region.  Of course, this can all be done very naturally. No huge cheeks or looking like an "alien" are necessary to get the lift and result you want. When injecting the cheeks precisely for a natural look, everybody will notice you look younger, but nobody will know specifically what you did.

A non-surgical "liquid facelift" is a short procedure done in the office.  Discomfort is minimal. Downtime is essentially zero. And results are immediate.

Finally, remember that Dr. Yamamoto personally perform every single one of the injections at Sierra Nevada Cosmetic and Laser Surgery. He has had the privilege of extensive training in non-surgical facial procedures and bring that experience to every single one of my patients. He wants to make sure that every time you visit my office you know you are getting him for your procedure.
