Question:
I have been planning for a facelift this past year but just lost my job. I would like a lower cost alternative. What types of non-surgical facelifts do you do?
Answer:
A lower cost alternative to a face lift could be either the “liquid face lift” which mostly involves placement of filler or autologous fat into specific areas of the face to help re inflate the skin of your face, rather than pulling it tighter in order to help get rid of excess, hanging skin. A mini face lift is another alternative to a full face lift surgery. There is really no ideal substitute for the results that can be achieved with a full face lift, and I will often times use autologous fat injections at the time of the face lift in order to both tighten the skin and fill the face to give a really remarkable esthetic result. I wish you luck in finding a new job and waiting until you have secured employment may not be a bad idea prior to assuming any new expenses. I would be happy to help you to stay within your budget.
