The decision to pursue a facelift is rarely small. The procedure represents an investment of significant time, money, and emotional energy — and the difference between a result that takes ten years off naturally and one that announces itself as obvious surgery comes down almost entirely to the surgeon performing it.

For patients who prefer the United States, the Beverly Hills office welcomes international visitors with coordinated travel and recovery planning. Virtual consultations allow the conversation to begin from Monaco before any travel decision is made.

Dr. Anastasatos has been an invited lecturer at the Royal Society of Medicine in London on advanced facelift techniques — including the deep plane facelift — and has been invited to return as a featured speaker in 2026. He has also presented at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center Grand Rounds on advanced surgical techniques, with sustained academic engagement reflecting decades of refined facial surgical work. Board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), and named by The Luxe Insider as one of the Top 10 Plastic Surgeons in the World.

What Type of Facelift Is Right for You?

Determining the type of facelift that is right for you depends on various factors, such as your specific concerns, desired outcomes, overall health and your plastic surgeon’s recommendations.
Facelift options in Monaco include but are not limited to the following:

• Traditional facelift: Also known as a full facelift, this procedure addresses the lower face, jowls, neck, and sometimes the mid-face. It involves making incisions along the hairline and around the ears to lift and reposition underlying tissues, remove excess skin and create a more youthful appearance.
• Mini facelift: This less invasive procedure focuses on the lower face and jowls, with smaller incisions and a shorter recovery time compared to a full facelift. It is suitable for individuals with mild to moderate signs of aging.
• Mid-facelift: This procedure targets the middle area of the face, including the cheeks and nasolabial folds. It aims to restore volume, improve sagging and create a more youthful contour.
• Thread lift: A thread lift is a non-surgical option that involves inserting dissolvable threads under the skin to lift and tighten specific areas. It is typically used for mild sagging and is associated with minimal downtime.
• Neck lift: A neck lift focuses on improving the appearance of the neck by removing excess skin, tightening underlying muscles, and addressing the presence of neck bands or a “turkey wattle.”

It is crucial to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon or facial plastic surgeon to determine the most suitable type of facelift for you. Dr. Anastasatos is a top facial plastic surgeon who will evaluate your individual needs, examine your facial anatomy and discuss your desired outcomes to recommend the most appropriate procedure or combination of procedures for you.

What Is a Monaco Percutaneous Facelift?

A percutaneous facelift is a surgical procedure Dr. Anastasatos offers his patients in Monaco that aims to rejuvenate the face with smaller incisions and less extensive dissection compared to a traditional facelift. It is a variation of the facelift technique designed to provide more limited correction, specifically targeting certain areas of the face. This type of facelift is generally associated with a shorter recovery time, reduced scarring and a decreased risk compared to a traditional facelift.

How Long Do Facelift Results Last?

The duration of your Monaco facelift result can vary depending on several factors, including individual characteristics, the specific techniques used during the procedure, lifestyle choices, and the aging process. While a facelift can effectively address signs of aging in the face and neck, it does not entirely halt the natural aging process.

On average, the results of a facelift can be long-lasting, typically ranging from 5 to 10 years. However, it is important to note that the aging process continues even after a facelift, and the face will continue to change over time. Factors such as genetics, sun exposure, smoking, and overall health can influence the longevity of the results.

To maximize the longevity of facelift results, following a healthy lifestyle, including regular skincare, sun protection, a balanced diet, exercise, and avoiding smoking is recommended. Additionally, considering periodic touch-up treatments or complementary non-surgical procedures can help further enhance and maintain your results.
