Our Location

Here is a 53 year-old nurse who anted to improve the signs of facial aging and expected a very natural result. She is delighted with her outcome, where a combination of lower face and neck lift, facial and cheek fat grafting, TCA chemical peel and Botox, all added up to a beautiful yet subtle result. There are no signs that the patient had plastic surgery-- just a more youthful appearance.

Best age for a facelift?

  • Many patients in their 40s and early 50s start to have concerns about facial aging changes yet they still feel very youthful and energetic
  • This is an ideal time for facelift surgery.
  • Many patients are nervous that surgery might look more unnatural, pulled or artificial then nonsurgical techniques such as injectables. 
  • Unfortunately, many patients do have unnatural results with too much feeling to the lips and cheeks, or too much tightening to the mouth and face resulting in overly dramatic and artificial results
  • In the hands of a skilled and experienced plastic surgeon, Dr. Michael Suzman has 20 years of experience and facelift surgery creating more youthful and completely natural results.
  • Age 45-55 is the optimal time for facelift surgery, where the changes are subtle but long-lasting
  • Patients in their late 50s early 60s are also outstanding candidates though sometimes care must be taken to avoid excess pulling or tension on the skin
  • From the 60s to 70s and beyond, surgeon was balance limited OR time with improved appearance and a natural manner and this takes great surgical skill and judgment.
