NON-SURGICAL FACELIFT
Non-Surgical Facial Rejuvenation in Ottawa
What does a non-surgical facelift mean? This term can describe an individualized facial-rejuvenation plan using treatments such as neuromodulators or dermal fillers. It is not one standardized procedure. Assessment at the Ottawa clinic considers facial movement, volume, skin quality and tissue descent before recommending treatment.
What can injectables address? Neuromodulators soften selected movement-related lines. Fillers can add volume or contour in selected areas. The proposed product, treatment sites, likely duration and maintenance should be explained before you decide.
When might surgery be more appropriate? Injectables do not remove substantial excess skin or reposition descended tissues in the same way as a surgical facelift or neck lift. Adding more filler may not address jowls or neck laxity. Alternatives, deferring treatment or no treatment may be the appropriate recommendation.
What should I ask about safety and cost? Discuss medical history, prior treatments, bruising, asymmetry and product-specific risks, including rare serious complications. Ask about aftercare, urgent support, follow-up and the total quote rather than choosing a plan by units or syringes alone.
