Who is a Good Candidate for a Ponytail Facelift?

A ponytail facelift or “ponytail lift” is a minimally invasive lift that’s performed though small incisions. The term is used to describe the same lift and procedure as a mini facelift. This can be ideal for addressing subtle or early signs of aging. Some patients say it mimics the look of the face when the hair is pulled back in a tight, high ponytail, hence the name. Moreover, you can easily wear a ponytail after surgery without having to worry about scars. However, the name is a marketing term rather than a medical term or a standard textbook procedure.

It’s best for someone who would prefer the more substantial results they can achieve from a surgical lifting procedure over injectable neuromodulators or fillers. This can include patients who have tried injectables before but haven’t been fully satisfied with the results. A ponytail lift is very good at lifting everything below the corners of the mouth, including nasolabial folds and the jawline, along with the area under the chin.

A ponytail facelift is best for those who would like to achieve small improvements. They typically includes people in their thirties to fifties who do not have any significant facial sagging or excess skin laxity. The main benefit of the ponytail facelift is lifting the midface, temples, and jowls. However, it’s worth noting that although a ponytail facelift will make your face look more lifted, it won’t address all of the things a traditional facelift can. Ponytail facelifts are often best suited to individuals who are ready for something more dramatic than fillers but not yet ready to commit to a traditional facelift. Finding the right type of facelift for you is a matter of customization. We can tailor your procedure to address your needs and desired goals.
