What Is a Non-Surgical Facelift?
Are you looking for a way to rid yourself of the signs of aging? Do wrinkles and lines on your face make you self-conscious about how old you look? Perhaps you’re looking to refresh your face so it appears more youthful. Many people like the idea of rejuvenating their face, but a surgical facelift is not an option. Whether there are concerns about cost or recovery time, having a surgical procedure can deter many people from restoring their youthful appearance. Thankfully, there are other options available. Dr. Calabria’s stem cell-enriched non-surgical facelift can rejuvenate your skin without a surgical procedure.
How Does It Work?
Dr. Calabria has dedicated his professional career to developing his stem cell-enriched facelift procedure. While you are under a local anesthetic, he will perform liposuction to harvest fat cells from your body. Commons sites for this include the stomach, thighs, and arms. Using an enzymatic process, he will extract stem cells from the fat, and they will be injected into your face through microcannulas (smaller versions of the tubing used in liposuction). The stem cells stimulate your skin to produce growth factors and new blood vessels. This helps your skin refresh and regenerate on its own giving you a more youthful look naturally.
What Can It Do for You?
Restore Facial Volume
Aging causes a decrease in the production of collagen. This leads to skin losing its smoothness and facial volume deflating. Dr. Calabria injects the stem cells into the places on your face where volume loss is most apparent and is affecting the aesthetics of your face. You can regain softer, younger facial features where you need it most.
Skin Improvement
The injection of stem cells stimulates your skin’s ability to produce proteins that aid in healthy skin. This allows your skin to rejuvenate itself and regain its vitality, making you look years younger.
Why Should You Consider It?
Long-Lasting Results
The results of your non-surgical facelift will last. The other non-surgical option, dermal fillers, may give you similar results, but they will not last without recurring maintenance treatments.
No Incision
Though Dr. Calabria does have to create an incision for the liposuction portion of the procedure, your face will remain incision-free. The stem cells are injected, leaving no trace of the treatment.
Faster Recovery
Since this facelift is a non-surgical procedure, you will have a much faster recovery. Because it does involve liposuction (under local anesthetic), you will likely experience some postoperative swelling and bruising. This will subside in a few weeks, and you can return to work within one week.
Are You a Candidate?
If you’re in good health and are experiencing facial volume loss with poor skin texture, you may be a good candidate for the non-surgical facelift. It’s important to have realistic expectations for your procedure, and being a non-smoker is vital to your overall recovery. If you are experiencing a lot of sagging skin, the stem-cell enriched facelift may be a better option. You will discuss your options with Dr. Calabria in consultation prior to your procedure.
