Facelift Surgery in Vancouver
Lift. Restore. Rejuvenate—Naturally.
A facelift is one of the most powerful ways to rejuvenate the face and neck. As we age, the deeper support layers loosen, jowls form, and the jawline and neck lose definition. At Vancouver Facial Plastic Surgery, our approach focuses on restoring youthful structure—not pulling or tightening the skin—so you look naturally refreshed, never “overdone.”
We specialize in advanced, modern facelift techniques that target the deeper layers of the face for long-lasting, elegant results.
What a Facelift Can Improve
A facelift dramatically rejuvenates the mid and lower face, addressing:
Sagging cheeks and loss of facial contour
Jowls along the jawline
Deep nasolabial folds
Loose skin on the face and neck
Neck banding or laxity
A tired, aged, or heavy appearance
The goal is not to change your features—but to restore the lifted, defined look you once had.
Deep-Plane & SMAS Facelift Techniques
Why Technique Matters
A modern facelift works beneath the skin, repositioning the deeper facial layers (SMAS) for a natural, longer-lasting result. We offer:
Deep-Plane Facelift
The most advanced technique available today.
Benefits include:
The most natural, refreshed appearance
Significant improvement of jowls and midface descent
Minimal tension on the skin (no pulled look)
Longer-lasting results—often 10–15 years
SMAS Facelift
A highly effective approach for many patients.
Benefits include:
Lifts and tightens the support layers
Refines the jawline and lower face
Excellent for moderate facial aging
During your consultation, your surgeon will recommend the approach best suited to your anatomy and goals.
Neck Lift With Facelift
Most patients benefit from combining a facelift with a neck lift. Together, they address:
Neck fullness
Vertical neck bands
Loose or crepey skin
Blurring of the jawline
A combined face + neck lift ensures a smooth, natural transition between the face and neck—something isolated facelifts cannot achieve alone.
Combining Procedures for Complete Rejuvenation
Many patients choose to refresh other areas at the same time for the most harmonious result. Popular combinations include:
Upper blepharoplasty (upper eyelid surgery)
Lower blepharoplasty (under-eye bags)
Brow lift
Fat grafting to restore facial volume
Rhinoplasty for improved facial balance
Laser skin resurfacing for texture and tone
Your surgeon will customize a plan that enhances your natural features while maintaining your unique expression.
Facelift Recovery
Most patients are pleasantly surprised by how manageable recovery feels.
Typical Recovery Timeline
1–2 weeks: Initial swelling and bruising improve
2–3 weeks: Return to work or social activities
3–6 weeks: Most swelling resolved
3 months+: Final refinement and full settling
We provide detailed aftercare instructions and ongoing support throughout your healing process.
How Long Do Facelift Results Last?
A high-quality facelift should age naturally with you. Most patients enjoy results for 10–15 years, depending on lifestyle, skin quality, and genetics.
