Rediscover the Elegance in Your Reflection
As time passes, the face can feel like a less accurate reflection of how you feel inside. Sagging skin, softening contours, and visible neck bands may leave you less confident in photos, social events, or everyday moments. A modern facelift offers more than rejuvenation—it’s a chance to restore harmony, poise, and confidence without sacrificing your natural identity. At Dr. Kristy Hamilton Plastic Surgery, every lift is a bespoke transformation, designed to reflect your best, most refreshed self.
What Is a Facelift?
A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a comprehensive surgical procedure that restores youthful contour to the lower face and neck by lifting, tightening, and redefining sagging skin and underlying tissues. This includes correcting jowls, deep facial folds, and loose skin around the jawline and neck.
Dr. Hamilton’s signature approach combines advanced surgical technique with artistic precision, often including a neck lift and facial fat transfer, to produce smooth, sculpted contours and refreshed facial harmony. As a board-certified facelift surgeon in Houston, Dr. Hamilton tailors each procedure to the individual’s anatomy and goals, respecting ethnic features and unique facial structure. Her work is known for being elegant, subtle, and completely natural-looking.

Facelift in Houston FAQs
What areas does a facelift improve?
A facelift targets the lower two-thirds of the face, including jowls, jawline laxity, and deep folds. It often accompanies a neck lift or eyelid procedure for full-face rejuvenation.
How long is the recovery?
Most patients return to public-facing activities within 10–14 days. Swelling continues to refine over several weeks.
Can I combine a facelift with other procedures?
Yes. Common pairings include brow lift, upper and lower eyelift, lip lift, CO2 laser resurfacing and other regenerative procedures..
Am I a good candidate for a facelift?
Ideal candidates are healthy individuals who are experiencing sagging skin, jowling, or a loss of facial definition. During your consultation, Dr. Hamilton evaluates your facial anatomy and advises how she can help her patients achieve their aesthetic goals.
Where will the incisions be, and will there be visible scarring?
Using Dr. Hamilton's fin, meticulous suturing techniques, incisions are artistically hidden within the hairline and natural creases around the ear, making them virtually undetectable.
What's the difference between a facelift and non-surgical treatments like fillers or Botox?
Non-surgical treatments like Botox and fillers can soften lines and restore volume, but they can't address sagging skin or loose tissue at a structural level. A facelift lifts and repositions the deeper layers of the face for a more comprehensive, longer-lasting correction, and is often paired with non-surgical treatments for a fully refreshed result.
