Non-Surgical Facelift
in Rejuvaberry
When we begin to see the visible signs of aging, such as a gaunt, drawn face or the beginning of the formation of jowls, we may feel that the time has come to find a solution to restore some of the youthfulness and vitality we once had, and improve our tired, sagging, weathered appearance.
The gold standard procedure in these cases, is most likely a traditional Face Lift. Many patients are unwillingly or unready to consider having a surgery, due to the pain, lengthy recovery period, and finality of the results. Moreover, many people may be open to a surgical face lift at some point in the future, but they don’t feel that they have reached the age at which this option would be reasonable.
For patients interested in restoring youthful contours to their face, there is a non-invasive approach known as a Non-Surgical Face Lift, or Liquid Face Lift, in which dermal fillers are strategically placed to revitalise and rejuvenate their appearance, reduce wrinkles, and increase fullness.
Why Non-Surgical Face Lift?
Rather than commit to an irreversible procedure that requires a significant amount of downtime, many people are opting for a Non-Surgical Face Lift, also known as a Soft Lift, as it a safe and effective treatment option.
​
A Non-Surgical Face Lift is also significantly less expensive than a traditional Face Lift, which is a key consideration for most patients.
