What Is a Non-Surgical Facelift?

For those seeking comprehensive facial rejuvenation without surgery, we offer non-surgical facelift treatments using a combination of injectables, non-invasive, and minimally invasive treatments. By carefully layering these treatments, our experts can redefine facial contours, soften wrinkles, and restore volume for a refreshed appearance. Each treatment plan is tailored to address your individual goals and enhance your natural beauty.

Non-surgical treatments can enhance the skin’s overall appearance and address concerns, such as:

Elasticity
Uneven skin texture and tone
Lax skin
Fine lines and wrinkles
Sun damage
Uneven pigmentation
Redness
Acne and acne scars

Non-surgical facelifts use treatments like neurotoxins, dermal fillers, lasers, and threads to tighten skin, redefine the features, and address other signs of aging. These procedures deliver temporary results with minimal downtime and discomfort.

Benefits of a Non-Surgical Facelift

While aging can change your appearance, non-surgical facelifts aim to improve facial aesthetics without changing your overall look. With minimally invasive procedures, non-surgical facelifts can help restore volume, enhance skin tone and texture, and improve overall appearance.

Customizable non-surgical facelifts offer many benefits, including:

Less recovery time than surgical treatments
Safer, with fewer complications than surgical options
Collagen boosting treatments deliver long-term anti-aging benefits

Cost-effective treatment options

Non-Surgical Facelift Options

With minimal downtime and discomfort, non-surgical facelift options at Kállos Medical Aesthetics can help improve the skin’s appearance and stimulate collagen production to continue enhancing your skin’s health and resilience.

Laser Skin Tightening: This method addresses skin laxity that’s often associated with aging and decreased collagen levels. Laser skin tightening treatments heat the collagen beneath the skin’s surface. Heat causes skin contraction, stimulates collagen production, and promotes tissue remodeling, leading to smoother, tighter, and more resilient skin with enhanced texture and firmness.

The effects of laser skin tightening are gradual, with improvements developing over several months after treatment. With minimal downtime, laser skin tightening is a suitable option that often delays the need for more invasive treatments.

Laser Skin Resurfacing: Our experts use the most innovative laser skin resurfacing treatments. As a well-established method for skin rejuvenation, laser resurfacing effectively targets and eliminates surface irregularities, prompting the body to heal and revitalize. With advanced technology known for precision and power, laser skin resurfacing significantly reduces downtime and discomfort. Our laser skin resurfacing tools and techniques allow our experts to minimize thermal damage to the skin while retaining the robust, ablative effects.
Dermal Fillers: Fillers add volume and smooth lines, providing immediate results. They are used to enhance volume and contour various facial areas. The range of fillers includes hyaluronic acid-based products and other formulations designed to restore fullness to the cheeks, lips, and under-eye areas. These fillers not only add volume but also stimulate the body’s collagen production, resulting in immediate and long-lasting improvements.
Neurotoxins:Neuromodulators are cosmetic injectables that relax muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles. Our neurotoxin treatments, including Botox and Xeomin, are commonly used for non-surgical facial rejuvenation. These treatments reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, such as crow’s feet and forehead lines, by temporarily relaxing the underlying muscles. Each product has distinct properties that our experts use to achieve results tailored to each patient’s needs.
Thread Lifts: Thread lifts are a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment to rejuvenate the skin. They offer smoother, firmer skin and revitalized facial contours without surgery. Collagen production tightens the skin, improves texture, and restores volume over time. Unlike traditional facelifts or neck lifts, thread lifts require no incisions and use fine cannulas for precise lifting with minimal downtime.
RF Microneedling: RF microneedling is a treatment option for those seeking skin rejuvenation without surgery. This technique delivers skin enhancement with minimal invasiveness. Microneedling utilizes the body’s natural repair mechanisms to improve skin appearance by stimulating collagen production through controlled micro-injuries, triggering a healing response. It does not require incisions, stitches, or extensive downtime and is effective on its own or combined with other treatments.
Chemical Peels: This treatment uses chemical solutions to exfoliate and remove damaged skin layers. It improves texture, addresses imperfections, and restores a youthful glow. Active ingredients like trichloroacetic acid, alpha-hydroxy acids, or phenol target specific skin conditions to restore the appearance and health of the skin.
