With a boom in facelifts, fueled by the rise in weight-loss drugs and ‘Ozempic face’, .independent writer Charlotte Cripps went in search of the non-surgical version, and was surprised by the results.

Non-surgical “facelift” treatments are trending, promising skin glow, collagen boost, and subtle lifting effects.

While these treatments can support skin quality, it is important to remember they cannot replace surgical expertise when deeper facial changes are involved.

The AAFPRS continues to emphasize that when surgery is considered, your face should always be in the hands of a qualified facial plastic surgeon for safety, precision, and natural results: facemd.org
