Complementary Procedures to a Facelift or Neck Lift:
Enhancing Harmony and Refining Results
A well-executed facelift or neck lift can dramatically refresh your appearance—but for many patients, optimal rejuvenation requires a more comprehensive approach. This is where complementary procedures play a powerful role.
At Raggio MD Facial Plastic Surgery in Birmingham, AL, I design customized surgical plans that go beyond simply lifting tissue. By addressing related areas—such as the eyes, brows, lips, and skin—we can create a result that’s not only more youthful, but also beautifully balanced and natural.
Commonly Combined Procedures
1. Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)
A facelift doesn’t treat the upper or lower eyelids. Blepharoplasty helps:
- Eliminate sagging upper lids
- Smooth under-eye bags
- Restore a bright, youthful gaze
Deep Plane Facelift and Necklift, complemented by Upper Lid Blepharoplasty.
2. Brow Lift
For a sagging or heavy forehead, a brow lift:
- Elevates low-set brows
- Reduces forehead lines
- Enhances overall eye and upper face aesthetics
Deep Plane Facelift and Necklift, complemented by a Minimally invasive browlift.
3. Fat Grafting & Nanofat
Included in every PreservaLift™:
- Adds volume to hollow cheeks, temples, jawline
- Softens folds and under-eye hollows
- Nanofat improves skin quality and radiance
Facelift and Necklift coupled with autologous fat grafting.
4. Lip Lift or Augmentation
Facial rejuvenation often highlights signs of aging around the mouth. Options include:
- Lip lift: Reduces upper lip length, enhances shape
- Fat or filler augmentation: Restores soft volume
Deep Necklift coupled with Surgical Lip Lift.
5. Chin Augmentation
To support jawline rejuvenation:
- Fat grafting or implant can enhance projection
- Improves balance and enhances neck-facelift results
Chin Augmentation with medical grade silicone chin implant.
6. Ablative Skin Resurfacing
After surgical lift and volume correction, many patients benefit from:
- CO₂ laser or deep chemical peel
- Addresses surface issues like texture, lines, pigment
Facelift and Necklift complemented by Deep Chemical Peel.
Timing Considerations
Almost all of the above procedures are able to be performed during your facelift or neck lift. Others—like laser resurfacing —may be staged 3–6 months later for optimal healing and impact if desired.
