Questions you may have
Choosing between a non-surgical facelift and a surgical facelift depends on your goals, lifestyle, and most importantly the signs of aging that you are seeking to address. Whilst non-surgical facelifts are generally better for those noticing early signs of ageing there is no one-size fits all. In certain circumstances a younger patient may be a more appropriate candidate for a surgical facelift and an older patient more appropriate for a liquid facelift. Understanding what can and cannot be achieved from a liquid facelift and when a patient is a more appropriate candidate for surgery is part of the expertise you can expect from any of our practitioners at Montrose.
Discomfort is minimal, especially with the use of numbing cream. Most patients find it very tolerable. The procedure involves multiple precise injections, but the application of a topical anaesthetic significantly reduces any pain or discomfort during treatment.
Results are immediate, with continued improvement over the next few days as swelling subsides an the filler settles in place. You will notice a smoother, more youthful appearance right after the procedures.
Typically at least 12 – 18 months depending on filler type and individual metabolism but it can last for years. Touch-ups can be performed on the 8-point facelift to maintain results as they begin to wear off. The longevity of the fillers varies based on factors such as the specific hyaluronic acid formula used and the treated facial area,. Regular maintenance treatments can help prolong the youthful effects and adapt the treatment plan to your evolving facial structure.
Yes — the 8-point facelift works well alongside complementary treatments such as Morpheus8 or Thermage for skin tightening, laser therapies to refine skin texture and reduce fine lines, and neuromodulators such as Botox to reduce dynamic lines or wrinkles.
While these treatments are not performed at the exact same time, combining them as part of a staged treatment plan can address multiple signs of ageing. Dermal fillers restore volume and structure, while skin-tightening and resurfacing treatments improve tone, texture, and firmness. This multi-modal approach allows for a more comprehensive and natural-looking facial rejuvenation, tailored to your unique goals.

Thank you
Overall a disappointing experience, sterile and cold enough environment made bearable only by the maximalist decor. No serenity as portrayed in marketing features ie. Lack of music As a director within a private healthcare setting, very poor customer experience and not one I will be recommending to our own clientele.
I was advised if unhappy with results in 2 weeks to come back for a top up but work restrictions meant I did not attend for 4 weeks but was told that this was chargeable: disappointing again with lack of appreciation or flexibility for working professionals. No follow up provided or courtesy call as is often given at alternative aesthetic clinics.
Dr. Noy has been incredible from start to finish. It is a joy to go to this beautiful clinic, and care is second to none.
