Are you looking for a treatment that can lift and tighten your skin without invasive surgery? The Y LIFT is a non-surgical treatment that can help you achieve a youthful and healthy complexion. At AURAE MD in La Jolla, CA, Dr. Margo Aura Emami performs non-surgical facelift treatments like Y LIFT to help patients reach their ideal appearance. You can achieve long-lasting results in one quick treatment session without any surgery.
What Is a Non-Surgical Facelift?
A non-surgical facelift is a safe and easy treatment that provides results comparable to a facelift procedure without risky and expensive surgery. At AURAE MD, Dr. Margo Aura Emami performs the Y LIFT treatment. This treatment is a minimally invasive and non-surgical method of lifting and tightening the skin. The treatment uses precisely placed injections of hyaluronic acid to provide structure and definition to the face. The treatment has major advantages over dermal fillers and surgical facelift procedures. It provides significantly better lifting results than dermal fillers and may be comparable to surgery without the downsides.
The Y LIFT is customized for each patient, so it can be tailor-made to suit your needs. Dr. Margo Aura Emami can increase support where you need it or highlight certain features in your complexion. It can make your chin more defined and eliminate laxity under the jaw and chin. The Y LIFT can reduce hollow areas under your eyes and cheekbones. The upper neck can become slim and smooth, and lines around the mouth can also be eliminated.
Should You Consider a Y LIFT?
No Downtime
A major reason to consider the Y LIFT is that there is no downtime accompanying the treatment. You will recover in only 24 hours, and after this time you can apply makeup or skincare products and resume a majority of your daily activities. You should continue to avoid strenuous workouts while you recover, but you can resume all workouts after approximately two weeks. This makes the treatment an optimal choice if you have a busy schedule because you can complete the treatment during your lunch break and return to work without any interference in your workday. You will not experience pain following the treatment or require any medications.
You May Be an Ideal Candidate
The Y LIFT is a solution for patients of all ages and can make you look years younger. The treatment is typically performed for patients in their 30s and 40s to restore their healthy and youthful complexion, but there are no restrictions for those older or younger. Patients of all skin types can safely enjoy the results of the Y LIFT. Dr. Margo Aura Emami plans a treatment specifically for your facial structure to target areas in your complexion where the lifting is most needed. While most patients are eligible, the treatment is not recommended if you are pregnant or nursing.
Facelift Results in 30 Minutes
While most patients will need 60 to 90 minutes to achieve their desired results, the treatment may be completed in as little as 30 minutes if you only need a small amount of lift. You will see results immediately after the procedure and only a single session is required to reach your ideal appearance. You should not apply makeup or touch your face for 24 hours, but you can return to your normal routine or work immediately after the treatment.
Natural Looking Results
The Y LIFT works deep under the surface of the skin, so the results appear more natural than dermal fillers that concentrate on the top layers of the skin and the soft tissue. The treatment also does not restrict muscle movement, so the face can move naturally and make a full range of facial expressions. Unlike most treatments, if you are not pleased with the results of your Y LIFT, the treatment is completely reversible.
How Does a Y LIFT Work?
The Y LIFT does not require a general anesthetic, and there are no incisions or sutures. The treatment uses a thin cannula to inject hyaluronic acid deep under the surface of the skin. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance that is found in your skin, tissue, and joints. This substance is used for its ability to hydrate the skin and tissue, providing natural volume to the skin and definition to the facial structure.
How Long Does It Last?
While the results of your Y LIFT are not permanent, they are long-lasting. The Y LIFT results in lifted and smooth skin for one to three years. Over time, your body will metabolize the hyaluronic acid and your Y LIFT results will fade. Your results can be maintained long-term with regular touch-up sessions as needed, but the time between maintenance sessions is much longer than with many other dermal filler and skin tightening treatments.
Is a Non-Surgical Facelift Expensive?
While your health insurance provider will most likely not cover the Y LIFT procedure, the procedure is affordable when compared to a surgical facelift. You will not only save money on the procedure, but you will also not have to pay for a night of inpatient care or hospitalization that frequently accompanies surgery. You will also be able to return to work immediately after the treatment.
