How Permanent Are VIP Facelift Results?

Signs of aging on the face can make you feel distressed. While we continue to gain years of wisdom as we age, our skin may reflect some of our younger choices or the stressors we encountered. Additionally, the skin begins to produce fewer nutrients, like collagen and elastin, which help keep the skin supple, tight, and soft. This combination of factors can contribute to wrinkles, folds, sagging skin, volume loss, and fine lines. At Sawan Surgical Aesthetics in Edmond, OK, Dr. Kamal Sawan is a board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in facelifts. Using precise techniques and an artistic eye, he can manage the delicate features of your face. Before undergoing a VIP facelift, you may have questions about how long the results last.
