Liquid Facelift in Vancouver
What is a Liquid Facelift?
A liquid facelift is a cosmetic procedure that combines a strategic treatment plan of dermal fillers, each targeting a specific area of concern. This tailored approach provides significant, customized results, offering a great alternative to surgical methods. A liquid facelift can effectively target signs of aging and rejuvenate your overall appearance by selecting a combination of cosmetic injectables based on your individual needs and desired outcomes.
How Does a Liquid Facelift Work?
A liquid facelift involves injecting a specially chosen combination of cosmetic injectables into the skin. During your consultation at Skin Matters, our expert doctors will take the time to understand your unique skin concerns and desired results. Based on this, we'll select the most effective mix of injectables to achieve transformative results.
For example, if you want to restore volume in your cheeks, lessen nasolabial folds, or fill undereye hollows, we will tailor a plan to meet these goals. Our selection includes dermal fillers like Restylane and Juvéderm, which are effective for adding volume, smoothing creases, and enhancing facial contours. We also use neuromodulators, such as Botox and Xeomin, which relax facial muscles and reduce muscle contractions, softening fine lines and wrinkles.
How Much Does a Liquid Facelift Cost?
There is no "exact cost" for a liquid facelift. That's because your treatment plan is created especially for you. The cost of your liquid facelift will reflect how many injections you receive. Also, it's important to be aware that even though cosmetic injectables provide long-lasting results, they aren't permanent; as they fade over time, you may book routine injections to maintain your results.
Skin Matters is committed to transparent pricing. Contact us to schedule a consultation so we can give you more information about how much your personalized liquid facelift will cost.
How Long Does It Take to Recover from a Liquid Facelift?
You can expect to return to your normal routine as soon as you leave our clinic. If you experience side effects, they will likely be mild and should resolve within a few days.
How Long Does a Liquid Facelift Last?
The results of your liquid facelift can last for roughly eight months. Your results will depend on the specific dermal fillers and neuromodulators we use; if you're curious about how long you can expect your results to last, we encourage you to ask your medical aesthetician to provide you with a general timeline, but please keep in mind that your individual response to each injectable, your genetics, and certain lifestyle factors will affect the duration of your results.
Our doctors will be happy to discuss maintenance and even offer specific recommendations that can potentially prolong the results of your liquid facelift.

What Is the procedure Like for a Liquid Facelift?
If you and your medical aesthetician decide that a liquid facelift is right for you, you can expect the procedure to involve multiple injections of individual dermal fillers and/or neuromodulators. The procedure itself is minimally invasive; after a numbing cream is applied to the injection sites, your doctor will administer each injectable and ensure that it is evenly distributed underneath your skin.
Treatment Benefits of a Liquid Facelift
A liquid facelift offers numerous benefits. Receiving several injectables in a single session allows you to experience the combined results immediately. This procedure is particularly effective in tackling signs of aging and targeting areas that might be causing you concern. The duration of the effects of a liquid facelift varies, often lasting several months and, in some cases, up to a year. This variation depends on the types of products used and your individual response to the treatment. This non-surgical approach delivers impressive results without the need for invasive surgery.
Treatment Risks of a Liquid Facelift
As with any cosmetic injection, it's important to know the potential risks. While we take every precaution necessary to keep you safe and minimize discomfort, we cannot guarantee that you won't experience post-injection side effects such as redness, swelling, and/or bruising. Most patients experience mild side effects that last temporarily, but if you notice any disconcerting symptoms or signs of infection, it's crucial to call Skin Matters right away so we can provide the appropriate guidance.
How to Prepare for a Liquid Facelift
If you've made an appointment for a liquid facelift at Skin Matters in Vancouver, we kindly ask that you follow our instructions so you can be fully prepared for your treatment. Please eat nutritious, healthy meals and drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your appointment. Also, discontinue the use of blood-thinning medications for at least two weeks before your liquid facelift and do not drink any alcohol in the 24 hours before you arrive at our Vancouver clinic.
If you have any questions about how to prepare, please call us at 604-323-9588 so we can supply you with any answers or additional information you may need.
Liquid Facelift Aftercare
A liquid facelift is a minimally invasive procedure, so your aftercare instructions will be rather straightforward: you'll need to allow for any initial swelling or bruising to subside, avoid strenuous activities, and resist rubbing/excessively touching your face. If you notice swelling, bruising, or any other common post-injection symptoms, cold compresses can work well to alleviate those symptoms. We ask that you avoid direct sun exposure and refrain from using makeup or lotions for the rest of the day. While some patients return to normal activities immediately, others prefer to rest and relax for a day or two following a liquid facelift.
Liquid Facelift Recovery Timeline
Your results will be immediate, but you can anticipate seeing the full results of your injections within a day or two.
- Immediate Results: Right after the procedure, you will notice some changes. However, these initial results may not be the final outcome, as there can be swelling or mild bruising.
- One to Two Days Post-Treatment: Within the first 48 hours, you can expect to see more of the actual results. Swelling and bruising typically begin to subside, revealing the effects of the injections.
- Final Results and Patient Satisfaction: Once any minor side effects diminish, usually within a few days, you will be able to see the full impact of the liquid facelift. This is when patients often feel most pleased, noting a more youthful and radiant appearance.

Liquid Facelift FAQs
How long does a liquid facelift last?
A liquid facelift can last from a few months to a few years. Your results will be determined by the injectables used, your body's natural aging process, and other individual factors (if you're a smoker, your results will most likely not last as long as a non-smoker's).
What areas of the face can be treated with a liquid facelift?
Whether you have lines on your forehead, wrinkles around your mouth, or lost volume in your cheeks, a liquid facelift is a versatile solution that can address various areas of concern. A liquid facelift can smooth your complexion, enhance specific contours, plump the volume of your lips, define your jawline, and so much more!
