In today’s world, we want to look good, feel good, and accomplish both of those things as easily as possible. Back before the best cosmetic skincare treatments sat at the forefront of the aesthetic industry, there were limited options for those wanting to turn back the hands of time on their skin.
Facelifts, which happened to have recently celebrated their 100th birthday, have increased with popularity over the last century. In 1916, the German surgeon and president of the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, Rajiv Grover, performed the first facelift: ‘Lifting the [sagging] skin from the underlying fat, drawing it back, re-draping it and then removing the excess.’
This is when the face of history, changed forever – pun intended.
What started as an exclusive procedure reserved for high-society elite such as actors and individuals of wealth slowly but surely became a staple in the cosmetic surgery game. But a facelift, as transformative as they might be, is a major undertaking for the patient.
“Facelifts traditionally involve major surgery – sometimes hours on the operating table. Stitches, bruising and pain can result in needing weeks of downtime, which in today’s society, is hard to manage.”
– Drs. Marianna Blyumin-Karasik and Lesley Clark-Loeser, of Precision Skin Institute

The alternative, and one of the most popular trending skincare treatments for 2019 is the liquid facelift: No cutting, no stitches, and certainly no downtime required.
A liquid facelift, as reported by Very Well Health, “uses injectables known as dermal fillers, along with Botox, to help plump up, relax, and fill in the appearance of facial lines and wrinkles. It also can restore youthful volume to the face, reduce sagging of the skin by filling it up from the inside, and re-contour drooping facial features or hollow eyes. It is one of the latest anti-aging trends in non-invasive cosmetic procedures and is touted as a less expensive and less risky alternative to a traditional facelift.”
At Precision Skin Institute, we pride ourselves on using only the best dermal fillers and biostimulants in the injectables game.
“There are many injectables in our toolbox that can accomplish a liquid facelift and we pick and choose our products like artists would pick paint colors and brushes based on individual patient skin types, genders, needs, as per our commitment helping each patient strike a precise aesthetic balance.”

By analyzing the needs of your skin, we are able to customize your liquid facelift and give you a whole new refreshed and rejuvenated look in less time than it takes to complete a spin class.
To restore definition in your cheeks and give sagging skin a lift due to volume loss, we rely on superstar fillers like Juvederm Voluma XC and Restylane Lyft. These dermal fillers are used to treat wrinkles, smooth lines, and restore volume. We keep Sculptra injections in our arsenal of filler favorites, which is a perfect choice for restoring volume restore volume that is lost over time. Patients have reported looking up to five years younger at six months after treatment that restore volume loss.
The best lip injections in Fort Lauderdale and its surrounding area are Juvederm’s Volbella Ultra XC and Restylane Sylk. These injections ads subtle volume to your lips and corrects any lip lines, while Ultra injections adds fullness to your lips. Incorporating both a volumizer and line smoother together make for the perfect lip refresher. Volbella was even awarded the “Best of Beauty Breakthrough” title by Allure magazine in 2017.
Perhaps the most targeted area for anyone looking to take years off their skin, are the ones where lines and wrinkles have set in, replacing the tight skin once used to live in its place. For the lines and wrinkles around the nose and mouth, we complete your liquid facelift with Juvderm XC and Vollure, perfect for all skin types and lasting up to 18 months. Restylane Refyne and Defyne are two products that are superior for addressing the perioral/marionette area; with the main difference between the two being that Restylane Refyne treats mild to moderate lines and wrinkles, while Restylane Defyne is used to treat moderate to severe smile lines. Both fillers are long lasting – up to 12 months.
Additionally, we are also excited to welcome Bellafill, a dermal filler that stimulates collagen growth and lasts five years. Bellafill is particularly spectacular at smoothing out frown lines and acne scars, rounding out your liquid facelift beautifully.
The fine lines around the eyes and deep creases that set in between the eyes and on the forehead are best treated with Botox and Dysport. These two neuromodulators can complete any liquid facelift by smoothing out any crepeyness around the eyes and forehead and are the top product of their kind.
