Why Patients Like You Love Their Facelift Results
A facelift does more than smooth wrinkles; it restores the youthful definition and radiance you remember:
Lift, Support, & Smooth Away Signs of Aging
When facial tissue shifts over time, a facelift repositions and supports underlying structures to reduce sagging skin, soften deep folds, and create a more refreshed appearance.
Restore Definition to Facial Contours
By improving the definition of your jawline, cheeks, and lower face, a facelift restores youthful contours, helping you look years younger.
Look Like You, Not Tight or “Pulled”
Dr. Shektman’s approach focuses on natural-looking rejuvenation, helping you look rested and refreshed while preserving the features that make you, you.
Will A Facelift Create The Results You Want?
A facelift can restore a more youthful appearance by addressing the sagging skin, loss of definition, and deeper wrinkles that develop over time.
You may be a good candidate if:
- You’re bothered by loose skin along your jawline, cheeks, or neck
- Signs of aging make your face look older or more tired than you feel
- You’ve tried skincare, dermal fillers, or other treatments, but want longer-lasting results
- You want to look younger without changing your features
Depending on your goals, Dr. Shektman may recommend combining your facelift with a neck lift, brow lift, or other facial rejuvenation procedure.
He also performs mini facelifts to address early signs of aging and deep-plane facelifts for more advanced concerns.

“She really took the time to talk to me about expectations and goals so that we could formulate a treatment plan that I felt comfortable with” — Real Patient Stories
Your Treatment Process, From Consultation to Results
Your Consultation: You’ll meet with Dr. Shektman to discuss what’s bothering you, review your medical history, and talk through the results you want. He’ll answer your questions and create a surgical plan built around your facial structure and goals.
Your Procedure: Dr. Shektman performs your facelift at our Joint Commission–accredited surgical center, where your comfort and safety are our top priority. He lifts and repositions facial tissues to create a more youthful look, and your procedure may take 3–5 hours.
Your Recovery & Results:
- First few days: You’ll go home the same day with dressings, and you’ll rest and take pain medication to manage swelling and tightness.
- 1–2 weeks: Bruising and swelling start to subside, and you may feel ready to get back to light activities.
- 3–4 weeks: Swelling continues to fade, and your face looks more refreshed.
- 6 weeks and beyond: Your new contours continue to settle and reveal your final results.

Everything You Should Know Before Booking
At what age do people typically consider a facelift?
There’s no “right” age to get a facelift; it depends on your personal goals and concerns.
Many patients consider facelift surgery when loose skin, jowls, or loss of facial definition become more noticeable and non-surgical treatments no longer help.
How much does a facelift cost?
The cost of your facelift depends on your treatment plan and whether you’re combining it with additional procedures.
We’ll provide personalized pricing during your consultation so you can make an informed decision.
How long do facelift results usually last?
A facelift can provide long-lasting improvements, often for many years.
While your face will continue to change over time, your results age naturally with you.
Will there be scars after my surgery?
Every surgical procedure involves incisions, but Dr. Shektman places them in areas that are typically well hidden around the ears and hairline.
As your body heals, they generally become less noticeable over time.
Will a facelift change how I look when I smile or talk?
No, Dr. Shektman restores youthful support while preserving your natural facial expressions.
You’ll still look like yourself when you smile, laugh, and speak, just more refreshed.
Ready to Turn Back the Clock on Signs of Aging?
By carefully lifting your facial tissue, Dr. Shektman will help you look more rested, refreshed, and confident without changing the features that make you, you.
