Facelifts are not reserved for one gender—both men and women undergo facelift surgery to experience a surge in self-confidence and achieve firmer, younger-looking skin. There is no one perfect age to get a facelift, only the right age for you depending on your goals and when you want to undergo surgery.

Most people interested in drastic cosmetic results undergo facelift surgery during their 40s, 50s, or 60s. Having a facelift during the 40s may yield more subtle results, as the signs of aging may not be as drastic as they would be in your 60s. Your body’s healing process may be faster during your 40s, which means less recovery time. Some men and women who get a facelift in their 40s or 50s experience longer-lasting results and don’t require as many follow-up procedures down the road. In general, the results of a full facelift surgery can last for 10 or 20 years.

A huge benefit of facelift surgery is that there is no maximum age limit. As long as you are in good health and have realistic goals for cosmetic surgery, a facelift may be the perfect option. Although the signs of aging may begin to appear during the 30s, facelifts are not recommended for men or women at this age.

There are different types of facelifts, and the right one for you will depend on the areas you’re looking to see improvements in. At Carolinas Center for Cosmetic Surgery, we offer full traditional facelifts, neck lifts, and mini facelifts.
