Y LIFT^®

The Y LIFT^® is performed under local anesthetic. A specialized blunt titanium instrument is inserted beneath the skin and muscle. The muscles are lifted by the instrument and FDA-approved hyaluronic acid fillers are then injected to hold the muscle in its newly elevated place. The strength of the muscle maintains the filler in place and gives lift and prevents sagging. The face is then sculpted by hand. Filler is not injected into the skin and there is no use of needles like in regular filler injections. Results of the Y LIFT^® typically last 2-4 years.

There is little to no downtime with the Y LIFT^®. However, it is normal to experience swelling, tenderness, soreness, redness, and minor bruising, all of which should fade within a few days after the procedure.
