What is a liquid facelift?

A liquid facelift is any combination of noninvasive or injectable treatments that refresh and rejuvenate the face without the need for surgery or incisions. This treatment is a great option for patients hoping to enhance their features or reverse signs of aging, from jowls to sagging facial skin. 

A typical liquid facelift includes:

  • Wrinkle relaxers such as Botox or Dysport
  • Dermal Fillers such as Juvederm or Restylane
  • Skin rejuvenation (microneedling, PRP, Plasma Pen and chemical peels)

Before any treatment, your provider will perform a detailed facial analysis and customize a unique combination of in-office treatments to help you look refreshed, rejuvenated, and rested with minimal-to-no downtime.

What does a liquid facelift address?

  • Facial volume
  • Skin quality
  • Facial contour
  • Wrinkles and fine lines

Benefits of a Liquid Facelift:

  • Lifted facial tissues
  • Reduced wrinkles, creases or folds
  • Enhanced facial contour
  • Rejuvenated and energetic look

What to expect:

  • Results from a liquid facelift are gradual and can range from subtle to dramatic.
  • A liquid facelift generally takes under an hour, and the patient can usually return to normal routines and work the same day.
  • Patients often report that they receive compliments on their appearance without any suspicion that a procedure has been done.
  • Your PERK treatment plan is designed based on your unique concerns and aesthetic goals.
  • As with any cosmetic medical procedure, results vary from patient to patient.

Your options abound

A liquid facelift commonly involves fillers and wrinkle relaxers. Each dermal filler is unique and designed to serve a specific purpose. In general, dermal fillers replace lost volume in the face or help the body regenerate its own collagen.

Precisely placed, the dermal fillers can be used to lift or contour almost any facial features. On the other hand, wrinkle relaxers such as Botox® and Dysport® can diminish fine lines by relaxing the facial muscles. 

PERK offers wrinkle relaxers such as Botox or Dysport for the following areas:

  • Forehead
  • Glabella (the skin above the nose and between the eyebrows)
  • Crow's feet (wrinkles etched into the corners of the eyes)
  • "Bunny lines" on the sides of the nose
  • Platysmal bands in the neck
  • Upper lip (to correct a “gummy smile”)
  • Masseter muscles (to slim the jaw or help with teeth grinding)

PERK offers fillers such as Juvederm, Restylane, Voluma, Belotero, Sculptra and more to improve the contour of:

  • Temples
  • Cheekbones
  • Lips
  • Jawline
  • Chin
  • Nasal irregularities ("liquid rhinoplasty")
  • Nasolabial folds
  • Marionette lines (lines that run down from the corners of the mouth)
