Turn Back Time and Embrace a Naturally Refreshed You
Have you had facelift or necklift surgery in the past and now you are noticing the effects of time once again? You're not alone. Our faces are a roadmap of our lives, and sometimes, we desire a little help regaining that youthful glow even if we’ve had a facelift or necklift in the past.
For those who have had a facelift or necklift 10-15 years ago, the time may come when additional surgery is desired to maintain or enhance your youthful, natural appearance. Although a facelift or necklift surgery can turn back the hands of time, the aging process does continue which may necessitate the need for additional surgery down the road. That's where revision facelift or necklift surgery comes in. A secondary or ‘re-do’ facelift/necklift is a specialized procedure designed to refine and rejuvenate the results of your previous facelift. It's your opportunity to enhance the results of your initial facelift, addressing concerns in your cheeks, jowls, and jawline for a more sculpted, natural-looking you.
Ross A. Clevens, MD, FACS and Phillip Barbee, MD are both double board-certified facial plastic surgeons with unique expertise in both facelift and revision facelift surgery. Specialists in deep plane, extended deep plane and SMAS-lifting, Drs. Barbee and Clevens are uniquely qualified to address your facial aesthetic concerns if you’re considering facelift, necklift, re-do facelift or a tuck-up procedure.
Signs it Might Be Time for a Revision Facelift
Facelift surgery, also known as rhytidectomy, offers remarkable improvements in facial appearance by addressing sagging skin, deep folds, and other signs of aging. However, the natural aging process continues, and over a decade later, the effects of gravity, sun exposure, and lifestyle factors can lead to new or recurring concerns. Patients who had facelift surgery 10-15 years ago may notice:
- Subtle Sagging: Over time, cheeks can lose volume, the jawline definition may diminish, and jowls may return.
- Incomplete Results: Perhaps your initial facelift didn't fully achieve your desired outcome, didn’t last as long as you had hoped or perhaps asymmetry has developed.
- New Concerns: New wrinkles or jowls may appear as part of the natural aging process, and it may be time for another facelift.
Rediscover Your Confidence with a Personalized Approach
At Clevens Face & Body Specialists, we understand that every face is unique. Our board-certified facial plastic surgery specialists, Drs. Ross Clevens and Phillip Barbee, will work closely with you to create a personalized revision plan that addresses your specific goals.
Imagine This:
- Enhanced Cheek Volume: Regain that youthful fullness with a cheek and midface lift as part of your facelift plan.
- Sharper Jawline: The deep plane facelift technique tightens the underlying muscle layer for a long-lasting, sculpted jawline.
- Youthful Profile: Necklift is part of facelift, and this includes tightening the muscle bands and sagging to eliminate the "turkey neck," creating a youthful profile.
- Improved Skin Texture: Laser resurfacing addresses wrinkles and uneven skin tone for a radiant, youthful complexion.
Minimally Invasive Options and a Supportive Recovery
In some cases, we may even utilize minimally invasive techniques to complement your revision facelift, all while prioritizing your comfort throughout the process. Our experienced team at Clevens Face & Body Specialists will guide you through every step of recovery, ensuring you feel confident and supported. Drs. Clevens and Barbee have created innovative minimally invasive techniques including The Express Lift, EllaLift and The Laser Assisted Weekend Necklift to achieve facial and neck rejuvenation with no incisions and no stitches. Individuals who have had prior facelift or necklift surgery may be candidates for one of the unique short-recovery treatments.

The ultimate goal of revision facelift surgery is to achieve natural-looking results that age gracefully with you. By choosing skilled and experienced facial plastic surgery specialists such as Dr. Barbee or Dr. Clevens, following a healthy lifestyle, and maintaining a consistent skincare routine, you can extend the longevity of your youthful appearance.
