Home . Face and Neck Lift . Liquid Facelift

A liquid facelift is a non-surgical procedure that will sculpt, contour, and lift the face without surgical incisions. It uses biologically-compatible dermal fillers or fat injections to add volume and lift to specific facial features. Some fillers encourage collagen growth to promote the appearance of firmer, more supple skin.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT?

If you undergo this procedure under his care, you can expect the following benefits:

A liquid facelift addresses a wide variety of issues:

SCHEDULE A CONSULTATION

WHAT IS MY FIRST STEP IN FACIAL REJUVENATION?

With every procedure, whether surgical or non-surgical, Dr. Sedgh takes the time to meet with you, listen, and fully understand your aesthetic goals. In your initial consultation, he will first ask you about your medical history, your motivations for the procedure, and what you want to achieve.

The discussion will be thorough, and will include:

A thorough physical examination with a focus on the target areas
Explanation of the procedure and how it can be accomplished
An optional skin test
A discussion about which fillers, neuromodulators, or other treatments will produce the best result for you.

If you live out-of-town or overseas, Dr. Sedgh can conduct your consultation via video conferencing. Should you decide to have the procedure, our friendly, helpful staff will help you plan your trip and assist you with travel and accommodation, as well as aftercare and concierge services.

Dr. Sedgh will mark strategic points on the face as guides for the injection sites. He may apply a topical anesthetic to numb the area, but in some cases, the anesthetic may in the filler formula. Once all target areas have been prepped, Dr. Sedgh will inject a controlled amount of filler into each site. He will carefully massage the treated area, evaluate the results, and add more if needed.

NATURAL FAT TRANSFER FOR FACIAL REJUVENATION

RECOVERY FROM
A LIQUID FACELIFT

A liquid facelift does not include incisions and has minimal downtime. You can plan on resuming your day-to-day activities immediately after the procedure. The treated areas may be red, swollen, or bruised the first day or two, but the tenderness should resolve within several days.

With every procedure he performs, Dr. Sedgh makes it a point involved in the recovery of all his patients. He will personally follow your progress to assess and monitor your results, so expect several follow-up appointments for up to a year after the procedure.
