The positive effects of a face lift can last for years, but it's important to realize the limits of the procedure.
* Face lifts address only the face. Other procedures may have to be done to achieve the desired effect.
* Face lifts correct deep wrinkling and sagging of the tissues. Fine wrinkling, such as that around the lips, must be corrected by a skin resurfacing technique such as a chemical peel, liposuction, laser resurfacing or dermabrasion.
* Face lifts do not stop the aging process. Over time, signs of aging may reappear.
* How long a face lift last depends on
o Lifestyle choices such as alcohol and tobacco use
o Environmental factors such as sun exposure
o Heredity
With a healthy lifestyle, the effects of a face lift may last for 10 years. In some cases, the improvements are permanent.
You can do it up to 3 times after which the effect of surgery would be minimal.<br><br>Post edited by: Ask Me, at: 2007/04/17 19:27
