Facelift Series #2: Does & Doesn't w/ Dr. Kylie Edinger

Park Avenue Plastic Surgery Class

Drs. Bass and Edinger break down what a facelift can and can’t do.

Facelifts are great for tightening loose skin, lifting jowls, and restoring volume in the face and neck—helping you look more refreshed and youthful. But they don’t address everything. Wrinkles, sun damage, and changes around the eyes and brows usually need other treatments.

There’s a big difference between how facelifts are described online and how surgeons talk about them. The doctors break down that language gap so you know what those buzzwords actually mean.

Bottom line: A facelift is the gold standard for sagging skin, but knowing its limits is key to getting natural-looking results.

Find out who’s a good candidate for a facelift, how long the results typically last, and whether combining it with other procedures might give you the outcome you're really looking for.
