Non-surgical facelifts, also known as liquid facelifts, offer a quick, non-invasive, and cost-effective alternative to going under the knife.
A surgical facelift comes with all the risks you would expect from surgery, as well as the need for anaesthetic, a hospital stay, and a recovery period that can take up to six to nine months.
A non-surgical facelift, on the other hand, can be carried out in an appointment lasting anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour at Dr Bailey Medspa in Leeds.
The length of the appointment depends on the patient’s individual requirements.
A face that needs only a minimal lift will require less time than one where the skin is looser and needs more structure.
Dermal Filler Facelifts
Non-surgical facelifts use dermal fillers and can also incorporate newer hybrid treatments such as HArmonyCa to lift, sculpt, and tighten the skin.
Dermal fillers are made from hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance that occurs naturally in the body. As we age, our natural HA levels decrease, contributing to volume loss and the visible signs of skin ageing.
Hybrid Fillers
Hybrid fillers combine hyaluronic acid (HA) with other ingredients to create a superior anti-ageing effect.
HArmonyCa, a hybrid filler developed by Juvéderm, combines HA with calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA) which is another naturally occurring substance in the body.
CaHA helps to stimulate collagen production. Collagen provides the skin with strength, structure, and elasticity, but its levels naturally decline as we age, leading to wrinkles and skin laxity.
A hybrid filler like HArmonyCa delivers a two-in-one effect: adding volume and structure while simultaneously stimulating collagen production for longer-lasting rejuvenation.
The Full Face Rejuvenation
If you want to invest further in your skin health, a full face rejuvenation is an excellent choice. However, it typically requires multiple appointments to achieve optimal results.
The foundation of a full face rejuvenation is the liquid facelift. Skin health is then further enhanced with additional injectable treatments and medical-grade skincare following the non-surgical facelift.
Case Study
Alison, a patient at Dr Bailey Medspa, recently turned 60 and wanted to celebrate the milestone by investing in her skin health.
Her full face rejuvenation treatment plan included multiple appointments consisting of:
- Anti-wrinkle injections
- Profhilo
- Lower and mid-face dermal fillers
- HArmonyCa
Medical-Grade Skincare
Alongside her in-clinic treatments, Alison committed to a dedicated at-home skincare routine using Obagi Medical products prescribed specifically for her skin.
These products were selected to target her main concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, pigmentation, and uneven tone and texture.
In addition to her skincare regime, Alison also received Profhilo injections to further improve hydration, elasticity, and overall skin quality.
In this video Alison explains how the Profhilo benefitted her skin.
All of these treatments combined have helped Alison achieve a smooth, glass-skin finish and a youthful, radiant glow.
As a result of her full face rejuvenation, her overall skin health has improved, her facial structure appears more defined, and her jowls have been lifted and tightened.

What Is the Best Age for a Non-Surgical Facelift?
The best age for a non-surgical facelift varies from person to person, depending on how you age and the specific concerns you wish to address.
Aesthetic treatments are often most effective when used as a preventative measure to manage the early signs of ageing.
Many patients choose to have a non-surgical facelift in their 30s when they begin to notice mild volume loss or early skin laxity.
The beauty of this treatment is that filler placement can be precisely targeted to lift and contour the face in a natural way. Patients who start earlier or have maintained their results over time typically require less product to achieve their desired outcome.
For those showing more advanced signs of ageing who are new to treatment, additional product may be required to restore structure and achieve optimal rejuvenation.
