By Maxillo-Facial Surgery Institute Irvine
As we age, it’s natural for our skin to lose elasticity, for lines to deepen, and for gravity to take its toll. While these changes are a part of life, they don’t have to define how we look—or feel—about ourselves. At Maxillo-Facial Surgery Institute Irvine, we specialize in advanced facial rejuvenation procedures designed to restore a youthful, refreshed appearance while enhancing your natural beauty.
Whether you’re considering a facelift, brow lift, eyelid surgery, or neck lift, understanding your options is the first step to making confident, informed decisions about your facial aesthetic journey.
What is Facial Rejuvenation?
Facial rejuvenation encompasses a variety of surgical and non-surgical procedures aimed at reducing visible signs of aging. These treatments target sagging skin, deep wrinkles, drooping eyelids, and other age-related changes to help you regain a more youthful, vibrant appearance.
At Maxillo-Facial Surgery Institute Irvine, our board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeons bring unparalleled skill and precision to every facial procedure, combining artistic vision with surgical expertise to achieve natural-looking, long-lasting results.
Common Facial Rejuvenation Procedures
1. Facelift (Rhytidectomy)
A facelift is one of the most comprehensive procedures for reversing the signs of aging in the mid-to-lower face and neck. It addresses:
- Sagging skin
- Deep nasolabial folds (lines from the nose to the mouth)
- Jowls
- Loose neck skin
Our modern facelift techniques reposition and tighten underlying facial structures while removing excess skin, resulting in a smoother, firmer appearance without a “pulled” look.
2. Brow Lift (Forehead Lift)
A brow lift corrects sagging brows and deep forehead creases that can make you look tired, angry, or older than you feel. Benefits include:
- Elevated, more youthful brow position
- Reduced forehead wrinkles
- Smoother frown lines
The procedure can be performed using endoscopic techniques for smaller incisions and faster recovery.
3. Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)
The eyes are often the first area to show signs of aging. Eyelid surgery rejuvenates both upper and lower eyelids by:
- Removing droopy skin that may impair vision
- Eliminating under-eye bags or puffiness
- Creating a more alert and refreshed appearance
Blepharoplasty can be performed on its own or combined with other procedures for full-face rejuvenation.
4. Neck Lift
A neck lift addresses loose skin, excess fat, and muscle banding in the neck and jawline. This procedure is ideal for individuals who feel their neck makes them look older than they are. A neck lift:
- Refines the jawline
- Eliminates the “turkey neck”
- Restores a youthful neck contour

Q&A: Facial Rejuvenation at Maxillo-Facial Surgery Institute Irvine
Q: Am I a good candidate for facial rejuvenation surgery?
A: Ideal candidates are in good health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations. If you’re bothered by sagging skin, deep lines, or tired-looking features, you may benefit from one or more facial rejuvenation procedures.
Q: How long do the results last?
A: Results vary by procedure, but surgical rejuvenation can last 7–15 years. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, proper skincare, and sun protection can help prolong your results.
Q: Is there a lot of downtime?
A: Recovery time depends on the procedure(s) performed. Most patients return to work and light activities within 1–2 weeks, with swelling and bruising subsiding over several weeks.
Q: Can I combine multiple procedures?
A: Absolutely. Combining procedures like a facelift and eyelid surgery can provide a more comprehensive transformation while reducing overall downtime.
Q: Are there non-surgical alternatives?
A: Yes. We offer a variety of non-invasive options such as dermal fillers, Botox®, and laser treatments. While these won’t replace surgical results, they can be excellent for early signs of aging or as maintenance after surgery.
Q: Why choose a maxillofacial surgeon for facial cosmetic procedures?
A: Maxillofacial surgeons have specialized training in facial anatomy, bone structure, and aesthetics. Our surgeons offer a deeper understanding of how to achieve harmony between bone and soft tissue for optimal, natural-looking outcomes.
