After a facelift, skin treatments are timed to your healing and planned with your surgeon. Because our plastic surgeon and skin doctors work together, gentle care can start when it is safe, with energy devices and boosters added later to maintain skin quality.
Why co-care matters
Surgery repositions tissue, but skin quality, texture and pigmentation still need care. Our surgery and skin teams agree on when each treatment is safe.
Typical options, once healed
- Medical skin care and LDM
- Skin boosters such as Rejuran
- Collagen devices such as Thermage for maintenance
Frequently asked questions
How soon after a facelift can I have skin treatments?
It depends on your healing and the treatment. Your surgeon and skin doctor set the timing together.
One concern, several specialists
The same concern can need a device, an injection, surgery or simply better skin care. Our skin, plastic surgery, pain and regenerative medicine doctors look at it together and recommend the least you need for the result you want.
