What is the best age to have a facelift?

The aging speed of each person depends on their lifestyle, since there are factors such as tobacco consumption, sun exposure, diet or genetics that have a great influence on skin aging speed.

With time, the question of what is the best age for a facelift arises, since this is the best surgery to eliminate wrinkles. Here we are going to answer that. 

The best age for a facelift is from the age of 40 onwards

Some people from the age of 30 begin to notice some signs of aging in their face and start to find out if they can have a facelift, however, for people between 30 and 40 years, it is best to opt for aesthetic treatments, such as the application of hyaluronic acid or Botox. 

Depending on the person’s aging process, from the age of 40 is the best age for a facelift. This surgery can be performed until the age of 60-65 years, because until that age the quality of facial tissues is still good.

In the case of men, the best age is from 50 years old.

Regarding men, the signs of aging are more prominent after the age of 50, being this the best age for a facial lifting in them.  The surgery can be performed up to 60 years of age and in case the patient is older, it is best to make an individualized assessment to identify if  facelift is the most appropriate intervention.
