While there is no designated age at which one can undergo a facelift, there are certain ages at which the body will respond better to a facelift procedure. However, every patient is different; some don’t require a facelift until later. So, what is the best age for a facelift? Most patients who undergo a facelift are between their forties and sixties. However, there is no age qualification for the procedure. Most patients begin to see signs of aging during their forties and begin to experience loss of skin elasticity anywhere from forty to sixty. Since a facelift can help reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and excess skin around the jaw, most patients younger than forty do not meet the necessary qualifications for the surgery. However, every patient is different and experiences aging at a different stage in life. Some patients are above sixty, and some are below forty. It depends on the patient’s genetics, skin elasticity, and aging stage. Overall, if a patient is in good health and meets the qualifications, they can undergo the procedure. Dr. Sessa will be able to determine if a facelift is your best option during a consultation. To learn more, call us at 941-923-1736. You can also reach us online via our Price Simulator.
