A liquid facelift, also called a non-surgical facelift, is a cosmetic procedure that involves the use of dermal fillers for smoothing out wrinkles and fine lines and restoring volume in the face. A liquid facelift is a minimally invasive and non-permanent alternative to a traditional surgical facelift, which requires incisions and tissue manipulation.

To provide readers with an in-depth understanding of a liquid facelift with dermal fillers, we have taken insights from Dr. Mrinalini Sharma, a renowned plastic surgeon who is known for performing dermal fillers in Delhi. 

What is a Liquid Facelift?

A liquid facelift is an effective non-surgical option for individuals seeking a more youthful appearance with no downtime. It uses a combination of dermal fillers such as restylane, juvederm, radiesse, and belotero. With age, there is a loss of volume in the face’s key areas, such as the lips, under the eyes, cheeks, etc. Dermal fillers help to replace this lost volume and lift the face back into place.

What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable substances that are commonly used to add volume to certain areas of the face. The most commonly used fillers for a liquid facelift include hyaluronic acid-based fillers like restylane, juvederm, radiesse, and belotero. These fillers can address various concerns, such as fine lines, wrinkles, hollowed cheeks, and sagging skin.

Why Choose a Liquid Facelift with Dermal Fillers?

Liquid facelifts are a non-surgical option for those who are looking to rejuvenate their appearance. It offers quick results and no downtime. Individuals with severely saggy skin, however, might not fully benefit from a liquid facelift and instead require surgery. Liquid facelifts work effectively for individuals who are in their late 30s or 40s and have clear signs of aging.

The most commonly targeted areas include under the eyes, near the eyebrows, temples, jowls, cheeks, folds between the nose and mouth, around scars, etc. However, everybody’s procedure is different, and the areas that will be injected will depend entirely on one’s desired results.

Benefits of Liquid Facelift

There are several reasons why someone might choose a liquid facelift over a traditional surgical facelift. These include: 

• Since a liquid facelift is non-surgical, it does not require incisions or a long recovery period
  
  
• After a liquid facelift, most people can resume their normal activities relatively quickly
  
  
• A liquid facelift is generally less expensive than a surgical facelift
  
  
• While all medical procedures carry some risks, the risks associated with a liquid facelift are generally lower than those of surgery

• Minimal downtime implies you can return to your regular activities sooner

Commonly Used Dermal Fillers For Liquid Facelift:

1. Juvederm

Juvederm is made up of hyaluronic acid, which is a natural substance that combines with collagen and elastin in the skin. It helps to smooth the severe facial wrinkles and folds. Juvederm can be of several types, each of which adds volume and lifts to different parts of the face, such as the cheeks, lips, and sunken areas below the eyes.
