What Is A Facelift?
Of all the different types of facial cosmetic surgeries performed at Maglic Plastic Surgery, one of the most commonly requested is the facelift. This treatment concentrates on specific sections of the face to treat drooping skin and facial lines to result in a younger-looking, firmer appearance. Depending on your concerns and goals for surgery, a facelift can focus on the eyes, the cheeks and mid-face, the bottom section (including the mouth, jowls, and neck), and more for an all-encompassing younger look. Dr. Dino Maglic specializes in a variety of facelift techniques to cater to Draper, UT patients with a variety of skin types, lifestyles, and concerns. Some men and women want a full facelift while others may only be ready for a mid-facelift. Whatever your goals are, our objective at Maglic Plastic Surgery is to create a natural look that's soft and beautiful.
What Can I Expect with A Facelift?
There are a number of possible approaches Dr. Maglic may take with your facelift, depending on your individual cosmetic needs. During your consultation at Maglic Plastic Surgery, he'll review your goals and discuss which approach is ideal for your situation. Some facelifts rejuvenate the upper area of the face, and others focus on the middle and lower. Furthermore, some procedures are slightly more invasive and intricate than others. It is also common for some patients to have an eyelid lift, brow lift, or another procedure to complement and enhance their results. Facelifts are almost always performed alongside neck lifts to create a more balanced overall look. During your consultation, we can discuss your goals and treatment options.

What Are Common Types of Facelifts?
Some of the more known facelift techniques include:
- Full facelift: Considered the gold standard, the full or "traditional" facelift generally makes an incision close to the hairline, extending down to the area near the temples and stopping near the base of the ears. The underlying facial muscles are carefully pulled and securely tightened to produce a lifted outcome, which diminishes excessive lines and wrinkles. A full facelift is reserved for men and women who show signs of advanced aging. Various treatments may be combined with this lift, including an eyelid lift to address the eyes or a neck lift for the lower region.
- Mid-facelift: Using a similar method to the mini lift, the cheek lift (known as a mid-facelift) addresses droopy features close to the cheekbones and the upper jaw. This lift works great for those who hope to attain improvement in the lower two-thirds of the face, which also includes the jowls.
- Lower facelift: A lower facelift addresses the neck region and chin, and in many cases, the jowls.
- Mini facelift: During a mini facelift, a small incision is placed around the ears to elevate the skin, which affects the mouth, jawline, and jowls. This process creates subtle improvements that look natural.

I was referred to Dr. Maglic and the Premier Plastic Surgery group by my primary care physician. My entire experience could not have been more positive. This is a group that focuses on and has clearly invested in service. Professional touchpoints, fully informative conversations, treatment follow-ups, and genuine personal engagement. Pleasant experience and positive outcomes to the services provided.
Dr Maglic is hands down one of the best plastic surgeons in the state of Utah. His attention to detail and patient care are second to none. He revised a tummy tuck for me and it looks 100 times better than the first doctor that did it. I also have a few friends that have had breast augmentations with him and we all agree that there isn’t another doctor we would go to.
I wish I could add more stars for this review as 5 do not do Dr. Maglic justice. From the initial meeting, I was completely put at ease with his professionalism and his competency. He listened to all my expectations and concerns and provided me with the utmost confidence that he could and would deliver. The surgery, postop, office staff, and, most importantly, results have exceeded every expectation and I cannot recommend Dr. Maglic enough to anyone who wants the very best plastic surgeon in Utah. There’s nobody else I would recommend more and you will only be disappointed if you go somewhere else.
Dr Maglic was very nice and informative. I can’t wait for our future appointments💜

Facelift FAQ
How much does a facelift cost?
The cost of your facelift will vary based on the technique used. During your appointment, Dr. Maglic will develop your unique treatment plan to match your needs and goals. Once this is established, he can discuss estimates of fees. To avoid unnatural-looking results, it's better to focus on finding a skilled surgeon, like Dr. Maglic, instead of the lowest price. Maglic Plastic Surgery can help you find low-interest medical financing that will make your surgery easier to afford.
Which technique is best for me?
The best surgical facelift technique for you will depend on your needs, goals, level of skin laxity, what areas of your face are being addressed, and other factors. To produce the results you want, Dr. Maglic will explain the different techniques in your consultation. He will then help you decide which method is best.
Should I get a surgical or nonsurgical facelift?
While several great nonsurgical skin tightening procedures exist, these can usually only provide mild improvements. For moderate to severe skin sagging, facelift surgery is the best choice to improve your appearance. In your consultation, Dr. Maglic will discuss your choices, including nonsurgical treatments, to help you decide what is best for your needs and goals.
What about wrinkle fillers and relaxers over facelift surgery?
Wrinkle fillers and relaxers have recently become very popular to improve fine lines and wrinkles. Also known as a liquid facelift, injectable wrinkle treatments can give early signs of aging, but the results won't last more than 1 – 2 years. A facelift will produce more significant improvements than injectables with long-lasting results. Ask Dr. Maglic about nonsurgical wrinkle treatments in your consultation.
Will my results look natural?
Many patients worry that facelift surgery will make their skin look shiny, overly tight, or like they live in a wind tunnel. Dr. Maglic focuses on giving you a natural-looking result, so you appear refreshed and not fake. He listens to your concerns and goals before developing your custom treatment plan with the technique to produce your best results.
