Facelift and FaceTite are two anti-aging procedures used to rejuvenate the face, however there are some major differences. Facelift is a surgical procedure, while FaceTite is minimally invasive and uses radio frequency technology. During your initial consultation, your surgeon will help you understand the differences between these two treatments and which is best for your goals. Board certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Eric Yavrouian provides both FaceTite and facelift surgery to patients in Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, CA, and surrounding communities.

Procedure

FaceTite is a much less invasive procedure over traditional facelift surgery. During facelift surgery, the surgeon makes incisions in the skin, trims excess, loose skin, pulls the skin tight to reduce the appearance of sagging and drooping, then reattaches the skin using sutures. With FaceTite, there are no incisions or sutures. A small cannula is inserted beneath the skin to treat sagging and looseness.

Recovery and Results

Surgical facelift offers the best and most long-lasting results. Facelift is also ideal as the surgeon is able to mold the skin to contour the face and neck to achieve best results suited for you. Since FaceTite does not involve the removal of any skin, the surgeon has less control over results and this procedure is more ideal for patients seeking to address only minimal sagging and signs of aging. There is scarring and a longer recovery associated with facelift surgery, while patients that undergo FaceTite may return to work and normal activities much sooner.
