Facelift in Bogotá

With my technique (Liftera), the result is completely natural. I avoid the ‘operated’ appearance by:

My surgical philosophy:

• Repositioning, not excessive tightening
• Preservation of natural facial asymmetries
• Respect for unique facial expressions
• Deep work, not just superficial

Differences of my technique:

• Elevation of deep muscular system
• Redistribution of natural fat volumes
• Hidden incisions in anatomical folds
• Appropriate tension without distortion

The goal is that people notice you look younger and more rested, not that you had surgery.

A well-executed facelift can subtract 10-15 apparent years, but this varies according to:

Factors that influence:

• Age at the time of surgery
• Degree of previous aging
• Skin quality
• Lifestyle post-surgery

Typical results:

• 40-50 years: 8-12 years of rejuvenation
• 50-60 years: 10-15 years less apparent
• 60+ years: 12-18 years of improvement

Important: The goal is not to drastically change your apparent age, but to return you to a younger and fresher version of yourself.

Facelift results last 10-15 years on average, but depends on several factors:

Duration by technique:

• Mini-lift: 5-8 years
• Mid-face lift: 8-12 years
• Complete Liftera lift: 12-18 years

Factors that prolong results:

• Constant skin care
• Rigorous sun protection
• Healthy lifestyle
• Maintenance treatments

Aging continues after the lift, but from a “younger” base, you will always look better than if you hadn’t had surgery.

Scars are strategically hidden and become practically imperceptible:

Incision locations:

• Hairline (hidden by hair)
• Natural fold in front of ear
• Behind ear (invisible)
• Posterior hairline

Scar evolution:

• 1-3 months: Pink lines, easy to cover with makeup
• 6-12 months: Progressively fade and flatten
• 12+ months: Very faint lines, practically invisible

Special care with scar creams and sun protection optimize the final result.

Yes, I frequently combine lifting with other procedures to optimize rejuvenation and reduce total recovery time. Common combinations include:

• Lifting + Blepharoplasty (eyelids)
• Lifting + Facial lipofilling (volume restoration)
• Lifting + Rhinoplasty (total facial harmony)
• Lifting + Laser treatments (skin texture)

Advantages of combining:

• Single recovery
• Total cost optimization
• More integral result
• Saved total time

Individual evaluation determines what combinations are safe and appropriate for each patient.

There is no specific age, but aging signs that indicate the appropriate time:

Indicators for lifting:

• Notable facial sagging
• Deep folds (nasolabial, marionette)
• Loss of mandibular definition
• Neck with bands or sagging

Typical age ranges:

• 40-50 years: Preventive mini-lift
• 50-60 years: Mid or complete lift
• 60+ years: Complete lift with complementary procedures

Philosophy: “It is better to operate when needed, not by age. Some people need lifting at 45, others can wait until 65.”
