Facelift for Men in Kirkland, WA
Aging changes the face in ways that aren’t always welcome. Sagging skin, deep folds, and loss of definition can make you look older than you feel. Our male patients believe this affects confidence, career, and even social interactions.
At Remington Plastic Surgery, we offer facelifts for men that restore a firm, youthful appearance while preserving masculine features. Our goal is to help you look refreshed and well-rested without any obvious signs of surgery.
Why Men Choose a Facelift
Men in the Eastside Seattle area seek facial rejuvenation surgery for many reasons. Some want to look younger in the workplace, while others are bothered by deep wrinkles, loose skin, or a softening jawline.
A male facelift in Kirkland can help by:
- Defining the jawline
- Smoothing deep creases
- Restoring volume to areas that have decreased with age
- Tightening skin that has lost elasticity
- Boosting self-confidence
The goal is simple—helping you feel good about what you see in the mirror.
Am I a Good Candidate for a Facelift?
A facelift is a safe and effective option for most healthy men, but it is important to meet certain medical and lifestyle criteria.
Ideal candidates:
- Are in good overall health – Chronic conditions like uncontrolled diabetes or heart disease may increase risks.
- Do not smoke – Smoking affects healing and increases complications. If you smoke, you’ll need to quit well before surgery.
- Have visible signs of aging – Sagging skin, deep folds, and jowlings are common reasons men seek a facelift.
- Have realistic expectations – A facelift improves your appearance but won’t completely stop the aging process.
- Are at a stable weight – Significant weight fluctuations can impact long-term results.
If you’re unsure whether a facelift for men is right for you, we’ll discuss your health history and goals during a consultation.
What Makes a Facelift for Men Different?
There are several reasons why the male facelift is more unique. For example, the skin is thicker, facial hair affects incision placement, and the volume restoration in certain areas of the face is more subtle. The goal is to lift and refine the tissue without creating an unnatural appearance.
Our approach focuses on:
- Keeping incisions hidden within natural contours
- Maintaining a strong, masculine jawline
- Avoiding an overdone or “worked on” look
With the right technique, a facelift for men enhances features without making drastic changes.
How the Procedure Works
A facelift involves lifting and tightening facial tissues while removing excess skin. It’s performed under general anesthesia for comfort and safety. Most patients return home the same day.
Steps of the Procedure:
- Incision Placement – Around the ears and along the hairline for minimal visibility.
- Tissue Adjustment – Lifting and securing underlying muscles for long-term results.
- Skin Removal – Removing excess skin for a smoother, more youthful look.
Recovery and Aftercare
Swelling and bruising are normal for the first week. Most men feel comfortable returning to daily activities within two weeks.
We provide detailed aftercare instructions, including:
- Managing swelling and discomfort
- Caring for incisions
- Knowing when to resume exercise and work
Healing takes time, but results improve week by week.
What to Expect from Your Facelift
An appropriately performed facelift should never look obvious. Instead, you will see a more confident, refreshed version of yourself.
You can expect:
- A stronger, more defined jawline
- Smoother skin and refined contours of the neck, jowls, and midface
- A long-lasting result without obvious signs that you had surgery
No drastic changes. Just a confident, refreshed version of you.
Cost of a Male Facelift
Pricing depends on individual factors, including procedure complexity and additional treatments. We provide clear pricing during consultations and discuss financing options to make surgery more accessible for you.

FAQs About Facelift for Men
Will there be visible scars?
Scars are placed in natural creases that are around the ear and along the hairline. Once healed, they are difficult to notice.
Can a facelift be combined with other procedures?
Yes. Many men benefit from eyelid surgery, a neck lift, laser resurfacing, or non-surgical treatments like Botox for a more comprehensive result.
How long do the results of a male facelift last?
A facelift provides long-lasting improvement but does not stop the natural aging process. Depending on skin care, lifestyle, and genetics, most men enjoy their results for 10 to 15 years.
What can I do to help results last longer?
Maintaining a stable weight, avoiding smoking, and using sun protection can help prolong your results. Some men choose non-surgical treatments like Botox or fillers to maintain a refreshed appearance.
