Liquid Facelift

Liquid Facelift in Encinitas, CA

At Your Cosmetic Surgery in Encinitas, California, we provide facial rejuvenation designed to turn back the hands of time without the need for surgery. As a leader in the pursuit of ageless beauty, double board-certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Mario Yco offers a minimally invasive

and personalized approach to facial enhancement. The liquid facelift harnesses the power of advanced dermal fillers and neurotoxins to expertly sculpt and lift the face, restoring youthful contours and revitalizing your natural beauty.

What Is a Liquid Facelift?

A liquid facelift relies on the use of dermal fillers and injectable botulinum toxins to achieve a more taut and youthful appearance. A Traditional facelift requires anesthesia, incisions, stitches, and some significant downtime. With a liquid facelift, Dr. Yco injects neurotoxins like Botox or Xeomin and dermal fillers like Juvéderm or Restylane so you can experience the facial rejuvenation benefits of a traditional facelift, but without the surgery and recovery.

Who Is a Candidate for a Liquid Facelift?

The liquid facelift is ideally suited for individuals seeking a non-surgical solution to address signs of aging and rejuvenate their facial appearance. Candidates are typically those experiencing mild to moderate facial sagging, wrinkles, and lost volume. This innovative treatment is well-suited for individuals who desire a subtle lift and enhanced facial contours without the downtime associated with traditional surgical facelifts. Candidates should be in good overall health, with realistic expectations about the outcomes of the procedure. The best way to determine your candidacy is by scheduling a consultation with Dr. Yco at Your Cosmetic Office.

Liquid Facelift Procedure

The process of a liquid facelift is very similar to that of getting Botox or a dermal filler. Dr. Yco will begin by cleansing your skin before meticulously injecting the products into each area of the face that needs rejuvenation. The entire process takes under an hour, but if you would like to break it up into smaller sessions, each session could take as little as 15 minutes.

Post-Op Care

Following your liquid facelift, post-operative care is essential to ensure optimal results and a smooth recovery process. It’s common to experience mild swelling, bruising, or redness at the injection sites, but these effects are typically temporary and can be managed with gentle cold compresses and over-the-counter pain relievers as recommended by your provider. It’s crucial to avoid strenuous activities, excessive sun exposure, touching your face, and certain medications that may increase the risk of bruising. Gentle facial cleansing and moisturizing are encouraged, but makeup application should be delayed until your provider gives the green light. To optimize your healing process, Dr. Yco may recommend hyperbaric Co2 treatments or redlight therapy.
