What can a Revision Facelift achieve?

A facelift is an anti-aging surgical procedure that addresses the following three areas:

  • The mid-face that gradually loses fat volume
  • The areas around the nasolabial folds that droop and sag
  • The jawline develops jowls

Today’s advanced techniques offer a subtle, nuanced, and rejuvenating facelift. At PERK, we want to avoid the previous pitfalls of tightened or “pulled” results. Dr. Lee believes a facelift should enhance your natural, innate, and age-appropriate beauty.

What is a revision facelift?

A revision facelift is a surgical procedure that corrects or improves the results of a previous facelift. This may be necessary if the initial facelift did not produce the desired outcome or if aging has caused the face to revert to its previous appearance. During a revision facelift, Dr. Lee corrects issues or asymmetries of the prior procedure and may make additional adjustments to provide a more natural and long-lasting result.

What should I expect from revision facelift recovery?

A PERK revision facelift is generally not a very painful procedure. While you may experience some bruising and swelling after surgery, you can reduce these symptoms with medications and cold compresses. Dr. Lee will curate a plan for your recovery which should be easier than expected. Most patients return to their usual routine within three weeks and are presentable at around two weeks. You should be cleared to return to work shortly after, with restrictions on strenuous activities until one-month post-op.

Revision Facelift FAQ

Is a revision facelift more complex than the first surgery?

Yes, revision facelifts are typically more complex because of existing scar tissue, altered anatomy, and changes in skin elasticity. A skilled surgeon must carefully navigate these factors to achieve natural-looking results without overcorrecting.

Will a revision facelift leave more scarring than my first facelift?

If performed correctly, a revision facelift should not significantly increase scarring. Surgeons use existing incision lines whenever possible and advanced techniques to minimize scar visibility. However, those prone to keloid or hypertrophic scars may need additional scar management treatments.

How long do the results of a revision facelift last?

A revision facelift typically lasts 8 to 12 years, depending on factors like skin quality, lifestyle, and genetics. Proper skincare, sun protection, and a healthy lifestyle can help prolong results.

Will a revision facelift look less natural than my first one?

Not necessarily. In fact, a revision facelift can look more natural if done correctly. Many patients seek revisions because their first facelift was too tight or unnatural. A revision can soften harsh results, restore lost volume, and correct asymmetry for a more balanced, refreshed look.

Can I combine a revision facelift with other procedures?

Yes, many patients choose to combine a revision facelift with other treatments to enhance results, such as Neck Lift, Eyelid Surgery, Fat Grafting, and Laser Resurfacing
