From the consistent and clear communication all the way through to the fantastic results and follow up care, Dr. Zimm was without a doubt the right choice to handle my case.

The ideal age range for buccal fat pad removal is between the mid-20s to 40s. The lower age range results from the need to wait until the face is fully developed to remove the buccal fat pads, which generally occurs in the late teens to early 20s. Performing the age range in older individuals may have inferior outcomes due to lack of skin elasticity and age-related volume loss.

How long does a facelift last?

A facelift in NYC typically provides lasting results for 10 to 15 years. However, this depends on the type of facelift performed. Deep plane facelifts often offer longer-lasting results than traditional and mini-facelifts. A mini-facelift will provide improved results for five to seven years.

While these numbers reflect the average lifespan of a facelift, individual factors will play a role into the overall longevity of the procedure. Additionally, it should be noted that at 10 to 15 years the results will not revert back to the original appearance, but rather, a gradual decline will begin to occur. This may result in some sagging that does not necessitate an additional procedure for many more years.
