Aging is a part of life, but your skin doesn’t need to know that. Sun exposure, gravity, facial expressions, smoking, and lack of sleep all take their toll on our skin. As we age, our skin becomes more fragile and loses collagen, causing it to sag and appear “aged,” leading us to seek out cosmetic procedures.
Friedman Plastics is a premier facial plastics and cosmetic surgery center in Arizona, offering a full spectrum of surgical and nonsurgical treatments to help patients look refreshed and confident. Led by triple board-certified cosmetic and facial plastic surgeon Dr. Bryan Friedman, the practice is known for personalized care and natural-looking results.
What is Facial Rejuvenation?
Facial rejuvenation refers to the combination of cosmetic procedures used to restore your facial features to their youthful appearance. While a facelift is often the foundation for facial rejuvenation, other methods can complement and enhance the result. Surgical procedures such as eyelid surgery, brow lift, facial implants, or fat grafting can help correct specific problem areas of the face. Nonsurgical treatments, including fillers and fat injections, can be used to enhance volume and suppress wrinkles, erasing the progression of facial atrophy that accompanies aging.
Laser skin resurfacing can also be utilized to improve skin texture and correct skin blemishes or age spots.
Careful planning and sequencing of procedures is necessary for facial rejuvenation. Dr. Friedman will thoroughly discuss your case with you and determine the best order of procedures.
Recovery and Aftercare
Your appearance immediately after facial rejuvenation will depend on the type of facelift performed and the number of associated treatments. Your resurfaced skin may be covered with protective ointment, and in some cases, dressings, tape, or a bandage may be applied.
Dr. Friedman and his staff will provide you with all the necessary post-operative care instructions and schedule any necessary follow-up appointments.
Candidates for Facial Rejuvenation
Facial rejuvenation is not one “one-size-fits-all” treatment. Candidates do best with a custom plan that combines treatments to address multiple concerns at once.
You may be a good candidate for facial rejuvenation if you:
- Want improvement in more than one area, such as skin texture and tone, plus laxity, volume loss, or facial contour changes.
- Notice early to advanced signs of aging, including sagging along the jawline, deeper folds, hollowing in the cheeks or under-eyes, or loss of definition in the midface.
- Have skin concerns that don’t respond to skincare alone, such as sun damage, uneven pigmentation, redness, visible pores, or fine lines.
- Prefer a balanced, natural-looking refresh, where subtle enhancements add up to noticeable improvement without looking “overdone.”
- Are interested in staged treatments to minimize downtime or build results gradually over time.
- Want to maintain results long-term, using nonsurgical options to support skin quality and facial harmony after a procedure (or instead of one).

Frequently Asked Questions
There is no “best” age, as facial rejuvenation is based on individual concerns rather than a set age. Some patients start in their 30s with preventative or nonsurgical treatments, while others pursue combination or surgical options later to address more advanced signs of aging.
Results vary depending on the treatments used. Surgical procedures can provide long-lasting improvement, while nonsurgical treatments such as fillers, neuromodulators, and lasers typically require maintenance to sustain results.
Yes. Facial rejuvenation is highly customizable and can be tailored to address concerns such as wrinkles, volume loss, skin laxity, uneven tone, pigmentation, redness, texture, or acne scarring through a personalized combination of treatments.
Nonsurgical treatments can be very effective for mild to moderate aging concerns, improving skin quality, volume, and facial balance. While they cannot replicate the results of surgery, they can deliver noticeable, natural-looking improvement.
Recovery depends on the treatments performed. Nonsurgical combinations may require little to no downtime, while surgical facial rejuvenation typically involves a longer recovery period, ranging from a few weeks to several weeks for full healing.
Maintaining results often includes good skincare, sun protection, healthy lifestyle habits, and periodic maintenance treatments such as injectables or laser therapies, depending on your treatment plan.
Some combination treatments can be performed during a single session, while others may be staged over time to optimize results and minimize downtime.
