What is a Liquid Facelift?
A liquid facelift can be a minimally-invasive alternative to facelift surgery for those interested in rejuvenating and refreshing their appearance. This might be a fantastic option for individuals with mild to moderate sagging, wrinkles, or volume deficiency. “Liquid Facelift” is a term to describe the non-surgical facial rejuvenation that can be accomplished through strategically administered fillers and neuromodulators like Botox. Liquid facelifts can minimize the appearance of droopiness, open up the eyes, reverse the signs of sadness, fatigue, or anger, tighten wrinkles and sagging skin around the lips, eyes, and forehead, plump the cheeks, and add volume to the under-eye, midface, and jawline areas.
Liquid Facelift Benefits
It is evident that traditional facelifts last longer and can remove excess skin. However, there are many benefits to liquid facelifts that traditional facelift surgery cannot offer. For one, a liquid facelift has the safety net of being 100% reversible.
This also allows for easy tweaking of the results, which is more difficult with surgical procedures. Secondly, while surgery can pull skin, it cannot fill areas of volume loss.
When done properly and in a proportional and conservative manner, sometimes a slight re-inflation can reposition skin into the rejuvenated area more appropriately than by pulling the skin.
Also, while bruising and swelling may occur, there is no downtime associated with liquid facelifts, whereas surgical facelifts require ten to fourteen days of recovery.
Depending on the severity, cost is also usually more advantageous with liquid facelifts.
Individuals looking for results that are both instantaneous and reversible if desired would greatly benefit from liquid facelift treatment, especially since results from a liquid facelift are immediate and much of its results can last over two years.
Liquid Facelift Cost & Pricing Structure
The cost of a liquid facelift differs depending on the amount of filler and neuromodulators needed to achieve the patient’s desired outcome. The price of a liquid facelift costs can range between $2,000 to $12,000 on average.
At the Cosmetic Injectables Center in Sherman Oaks, our prices are highly competitive compared to the national average, even with our extensive experience and expertise.
However, it is important to note that the number of syringes needed to achieve the desired facelift effect depends heavily on the patient’s anatomy and cosmetic goals.

Before and After Gallery
How Liquid Facelift Works
As we age, the collagen and elastin proteins in our skin begin to break down and diminish over time. When these proteins dwindle, our skin is prone to increased bending (AKA wrinkling), sagging, and volume depletion. Through the strategic placement of dermal fillers, neuromodulators like Botox, and threads, an experienced provider can combat these issues in a minimally invasive and efficient manner to lift the skin back up into position and create a proportional harmony that exuberates energy and a happy demeanor.
Before & Preparation
For about seven days leading up to your liquid facelift appointment, refrain from drinking alcohol or taking any blood-thinning medications or supplements such as Advil, Aspirin, ibuprofen, Motrin, vitamin E, Ginko Biloba, or St. John’s Wort.
If you are prone to bruising, you may take arnica pills, Bromolyn, and eat pineapple core for the days leading up to your appointment. Please arrive at your appointment with a clean face, free of makeup and creams/serums. Also, we advise against doing this procedure within 2 weeks of any important events and any dental or vaccination injection.
During the Procedure
When you arrive for your liquid facelift appointment, you will be asked to fill out a brief questionnaire regarding your medical history. This form may be filled out ahead of time if you choose to do so and can be accessed from an email you receive from Cosmetic Injectables Center.
The appointment takes place between forty-five minutes to an hour, depending on the procedures and number of syringes required to achieve desired results.
Aftercare & Recovery
There is no downtime associated with a liquid facelift procedure. However, as with any treatment involving fillers and injections, there may be some bruising and swelling after your appointment. You should refrain from any intense physical activity for twenty-four hours after your liquid facelift procedure.
Avoid sun exposure for the weeks following your appointment and keep from using any topical creams or makeup for 24 hours. wear sunscreen if you must be in the sun. Your provider will give you individualized aftercare instructions after your treatment that should be followed carefully.

Similar & Related Procedures
Facelift: Surgical facelift procedures involve making multiple incisions around the hairline, elevating, tightening, and repositioning the tissues/fat/ and muscles in the face. The skin is then pulled, excess skin is removed, and the incisions are sutured closed. Sometimes this procedure is performed under local anesthesia and sedation, but often general anesthesia is recommended. The downtime associated with facelift surgery is roughly two weeks, but the results are permanent. The cost of facelift surgery typically ranges from $30,000 to $80,000.
Mini Facelift: A mini facelift procedure is similar to a facelift but specifically targets the lower half of the face and neck. Mini facelifts are ideal for individuals looking to target sagging jowls or other signs of aging on the lower half of the face. They can cost anywhere between $20,000 to $60,000 and are permanent.
PDO thread ponytail lift: A lifting effect can be achieved by strategically placing PDO barbed or molded threads in several locations of the face. This procedure is sometimes called a “ponytail lift” for several reasons. One of them is that the lifting effect can be likened to the skin being pulled back from putting your hair in a ponytail. The other is that you can put your hair in a ponytail without worrying about scars being visible when your hair is pulled back. The cost of a PDO thread ponytail lift varies depending on the number of threads used and the type of thread but averages around
$2,000-$6,000 nationally. However at our office, we keep prices competitive and sometimes include threads in liquid facelift packages. For more information on PDO thread lifts, click here.
Side Effects & Risks
The side effects and risks from liquid facelift are similar to ones from filler or Botox injections. Common side effects include bruising, swelling, and soreness around the injection site(s).
Other risks such as infections, asymmetry, clogged vessels or embolisms exist but are rare. These risks are minimal in the hands of experienced providers like the ones at Cosmetic Injectables Center in Sherman Oaks, California.
