Considering a Facelift? 5 Signs It Might Be Right for You
Nov 06, 2025
Wondering whether it’s the right time to take that next step toward a refreshed, youthful look? Confidence begins with feeling comfortable in your own skin, and modern facelift techniques can help achieve that.
Our team at Oceana Aesthetics, led by fellowship-trained, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Brian Blumenauer, always strives to help you achieve your aesthetic goals with a youthful, refreshed appearance that remains completely natural.
We’re pleased to offer these five signs that now might be the right time to consider a surgical facelift.
One of the most common reasons people consider a facelift is the presence of loose, sagging skin around the lower face and neck. This can create jowls or a “turkey neck” appearance that’s difficult to treat with skincare or non-surgical treatments alone.
A facelift tightens and repositions the underlying tissues, removing excess skin and restoring a smoother, more defined jawline, helping you look as youthful as you feel.
We offer a wide range of aesthetic therapies, including injectables (i.e., dermal fillers, Botox®) and advanced skin-tightening treatments, at Oceana Aesthetics. These non-surgical solutions are often highly effective for overcoming the signs of aging.
However, as skin elasticity decreases, non-surgical options may no longer deliver the lift you’re looking for. If you find yourself constantly chasing results with temporary treatments, it might be time to consider a facelift for more dramatic and lasting rejuvenation.
During your consultation, Dr. Blumenauer can determine which options are better suited for you based on the level of sun damage, loss of elasticity, and other factors that affect the skin’s appearance.
Modern facelift techniques are far more refined than in the past. Today’s procedures focus on repositioning deep facial layers, not just tightening the skin, which helps achieve natural and youthful results that last for years.
With proper care, many patients enjoy their facelift results for 10 years or more, making it a wise investment in your confidence and appearance.
Many patients say they still feel vibrant and energetic, but their reflection doesn’t match. If you often think, “I feel great, but I look tired or older than I am,” a facelift can help bring your outer appearance in line with how you genuinely feel.
This renewed confidence can positively affect both your personal and professional life.
A facelift isn’t a one-size-fits-all procedure. The best results are achieved through a customized surgical plan tailored to your unique facial structure, skin type, and aesthetic goals.
During your consultation at Ocean Aesthetics, Dr. Blumenauer discusses your concerns, assesses your facial anatomy, and recommends the most suitable approach for your needs. That might mean a full facelift, mini facelift, or combination with complementary procedures like eyelid surgery or fat grafting.
If you’re considering a facelift and want to explore your options, the first step is a personal consultation. We’ll help you understand what’s possible and design a treatment plan that enhances your natural beauty.
