The passage of time, gravity and gradual collagen loss show up on our faces as reduced volume, loosening contours and deeper wrinkles.
If you'd rather not turn to surgical correction (a facelift), aesthetic medicine offers a modern, innovative solution known as the Liquid Facelift: a personalised, non-surgical rejuvenation treatment performed in-office, with no general anaesthesia and no downtime.
What is a Liquid Facelift and how is it performed?
The Liquid Facelift relies mainly on the combined use of advanced injectable materials, such as hyaluronic acid and collagen biostimulators, while in several cases botulinum toxin may also be used to complement the treatment, where deemed necessary.
The treatment is fully personalised. Before application, the doctor carries out a detailed assessment of:
- The anatomy and proportions of the face
- The degree of tissue laxity
- Areas of volume loss and the patient's specific needs
The materials are then injected at strategic anatomical points using a very fine needle or an atraumatic cannula, aiming for comfort and minimal discomfort.
What are the benefits of the treatment?
The goal of the Liquid Facelift isn't to change your features, but to restore firmness to the face. By the end of the session, the treatment achieves:
- Restoration of lost volume: bringing back youthful fullness to the cheekbones and cheeks.
- Enhanced contour: sculpting of the jawline and smoothing of the nasolabial folds.
- Natural collagenesis: activating natural collagen production thanks to the biostimulators.
- A fresh, rested look: overall renewal with a natural-looking result.
“The goal isn't to change your features — it's to restore firmness to the face.”
Duration and results
The technique's biggest advantage is that it offers an immediate return to daily activities, with no incisions, scars or downtime.
The procedure takes around 30–45 minutes. The result is immediately visible and continues to improve over the following days, as the materials fully integrate into the tissue, while its duration ranges from 12 to 18 months.
The importance of expertise
Although it's a non-surgical method, the Liquid Facelift requires a deep understanding of anatomy and a refined aesthetic sense. Specialist plastic surgeon Athanasios Pallantzas will design a personalised plan for you, aiming for a youthful, natural-looking result.
