What is a Non-Surgical Facelift?

A non-surgical facelift is a customized treatment plan that uses a combination of non-invasive or minimally invasive aesthetic treatments to enhance facial contours and reduce visible signs of aging. Instead of a single surgical procedure, this approach combines several techniques tailored to your unique needs.

Common treatment elements include:

  • Dermal fillers to restore facial volume and soften wrinkles
  • BOTOX or Dysport to smooth expression lines.
  • RF Microneedling or Sofwave to tighten and firm the skin.
  • Laser treatments to improve texture and tone

These treatments are typically performed in a single session or a series of appointments, depending on your specific goals.

What Are the Benefits of a Non-Surgical Facelift?

Patients throughout Orange County choose non-surgical facelifts for their convenience and impressive results. Benefits include:

  • Little to no downtime
  • No general anesthesia or incisions
  • Natural-looking, subtle enhancements
  • Improved skin texture, tone, and firmness
  • Boosted collagen production for longer-term results
  • Customizable to address specific aging concerns

It’s also a great option for those looking to delay surgical intervention or maintain results after a previous facelift.

Who Are the Best Candidates for a Non-Surgical Facelift?

If you’re beginning to notice skin laxity, volume loss, or fine lines and wrinkles—but don’t feel ready for surgery—a non-surgical facelift may be a great fit.

You may be an ideal candidate if you:

  • Are in your 30s to early 60s with mild to moderate signs of aging
  • Prefer a subtle, natural enhancement over dramatic changes
  • Want to avoid the downtime and cost of surgery
  • Have good skin elasticity and bone structure
  • Are you looking for a maintenance plan to preserve youthful features

During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your goals and determine whether this approach or another treatment is best suited to your needs.

What’s the First Step?

Your journey begins with a private consultation at one of our Orange County locations. Our expert team will assess your facial structure, skin condition, and overall goals to design a customized treatment plan.

This is the perfect time to discuss concerns such as:

  • Wrinkles and fine lines
  • Volume loss in the cheeks or under the eyes
  • Sagging skin along the jawline or neck
  • Uneven tone or texture

We’ll explain all available treatment options, estimated timelines, and expected outcomes so you feel fully informed before moving forward.

What to Expect on the Day of a Non-Surgical Facelift Treatment

Most non-surgical facelift treatments are performed in-office and typically take between 45 minutes and two hours to complete. You’ll arrive with a clean face, and we may apply a topical numbing cream depending on your procedure. This can be completed over several sessions if multiple modalities are being used.

Once you are comfortable, your provider will perform the treatments outlined in your plan. Whether it’s strategic filler placement, microneedling with radiofrequency, or skin-tightening with ultrasound energy, every step is designed to lift, smooth, and enhance your natural beauty.

You’ll be able to return to most daily activities the same day—many patients even schedule treatments on their lunch break.

Non-Surgical Facelift Recovery

One of the key advantages of a non-surgical facelift is the ease of recovery. You won’t need time off from work or social events in most cases, and side effects are typically minor.

Common side effects include:

  • Mild redness or swelling at the injection site
  • Temporary tenderness or slight bruising
  • Subtle skin sensitivity following energy treatments

Most of these effects resolve within 24 to 72 hours. We’ll provide clear aftercare instructions, such as avoiding strenuous exercise and heat exposure for a day or two, and offer follow-up appointments to monitor your results.
