What’s the Best Age for a Facelift?

By Dr. Drew Davis

Best age for a facelift. Three generations of women working in the office.When it comes to facelifts, one top question is, “What is the best age for a facelift?” While most men and women consider facelifts later in life, the truth is there really is no perfect age for a facelift. Everyone ages differently and while some may experience early signs of aging, others look young and vibrant well into their senior years.

When it comes to a facelift procedure, there are benefits of having one at a younger age, but at the same time, it is never too late to give your face a lift.

Early Facelifts Have Benefits

Are you in your 40s and showing early signs of aging in your face[Transcript begins at 00.00.10]? If so, this may be the perfect time to consider a facelift procedure. The main advantage of having a facelift at this point is your results are often more subtle. Because your aging signs are minimal, the procedure is unlikely to require dramatic lifting or muscle repositioning.

A minor facelift, or mini lift, at this age can turn back the clock, giving you a more youthful appearance without the dramatic change that often occurs later in life.

The Most Common Time for a Facelift

Most people considering facelifts are in their 50s or 60s. This is the typical time when a person looks in the mirror, says “enough is enough!” and decides to make a more lasting change to create a refreshed look. It’s the most common age range for things like the dreaded “turkey neck” along with more noticeable sagging on the jawline.

By having a facelift in your 50s or 60s, you’ll be able to enjoy the results for many years to come.

Facelifts can help men and women achieve a vibrant and more youthful appearance at any age.

It is Never Too Late to Take Advantage of a Facelift

If you have reached your 70s or even 80s and are only now considering a facelift[Transcript begins at 00.00.10], have no fear. It is not too late. A facelift will address your individual concerns, such as drooping and sagging in the jawline, cheeks, and neck. Facelifts are often combined with other procedures to lift the brows and rejuvenate the eyes to make the whole face look refreshed and balanced.  Depending on your desired results, your surgical outcome may be more subtle or dramatic.
