FORT MYERS, FLA., January 27, 2022 – Dr. Prendiville says he sees patients who come to his office for Botox or one of the other facial fillers when what they really need is a facelift.
“There is fake news that fillers and injectables are all you’ll ever need to keep looking your youthful best, but nothing could be further from the truth,” he said. “The gold standard for facial rejuvenation is – and always has been – a facelift.”
According to the most recent data available from the American Academy of Plastic Surgeons, there were 1.7 million cosmetic surgery procedures such as facelifts and eyelid lifts in the U.S. in 2017 The number of non-invasive cosmetic procedures such as Botox and fillers dwarfed that number with 15.7 million procedures in 2017.
“Fillers and injectables work well as stand-alone treatments for women in their 30s and 40s, but cannot be considered the best treatment available after this period in life. Women in their 50s, 60s and 70s will require more substantial treatments to achieve spectacular results. Results obtainable with surgery aren’t possible with fillers and injectables and people need to be honest about that,” Dr. Prendiville said.
There is a cost factor involved. A facelift or eyelid surgery cost more than fillers, but there is a disadvantage to fillers too.
“A filler will only last about six to eight months and then you’ll need to keep repeating it to maintain the same look. A facelift may be more expensive initially but it can last 10 or more years,” he said.
Dr. Prendiville said a patient in her late 60s commented to him recently that she has done fillers for seven years. She realized that for the amount of money she spent on fillers, she could have paid for a facelift. And it would have been permanent instead of temporary.
Using before and after pictures of actual patients, Dr. Prendiville will discuss the latest advances in facelifts, eyelid lifts, nose surgery, lasers, and reconstructive surgery. He also will review injectable wrinkle fillers Botox®, Sculptra®, Juvederm®; Restylane®, Restylane Silk®, Radiesse®, Voluma®, Vollure®, and Revanesse Versa® for deeper wrinkles and lines.

FORT MYERS, FLA., January 4, 2022 BY DR. STEPHEN PRENDIVILLE, GUEST COLUMNIST, USA TODAY NETWORK – A facelift is one of the most popular procedures to rejuvenate the face, but what age is best for this surgery? There is no one-size-fits-all for when is the right time. The condition of the skin, lifestyle and aging is individual to each person. Some people may look youthful into their 40s and 50s, while others might mistakenly look much older when they are in their 30s. Smokers, for example, tend to have wrinkles and sagging skin at an earlier age than someone who doesn’t smoke. Sun exposure accelerates the aging process. Genetics also play a role. If your mother had signs of early aging, you are more likely to experience the same outcome.
Women (and men too) in their later 30s and older who come to my office of- ten say they no longer feel like themselves. They look in the mirror and re- port that they look tired. Friends may even ask if they are getting enough sleep. Here are some signs that a facelift may be best:
The decision to have a facelift procedure is based primarily on aging indications but also on how those aging changes affect the individual. Both are requisites for considering a facelift, but presence of aging changes is more important than actual numerical age. I have performed facelifts on patients from their early 40s to their 80s based on these criteria.
Credentials have always been important when it comes to choosing a board- certified facial plastic surgeon, and they matter even more now. Board-certified facial plastic surgeons specialize in surgery of the face, head and neck. The American Academy of Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery advises patients to conduct their own research be- fore scheduling a procedure.
“Finding the right, most qualified, physician to perform any procedure should ALWAYS be a patient’s first priority,” says Steve Jurich, CEO and Executive Vice President of the AAFPRS.
“Make sure the physician is qualified, experienced, and board-certified in the procedure that you are considering. If you are seeking a surgical procedure on the face, head, or neck, the AAFPRS always recommends that you select a surgeon who trained specifically in procedures of the face, head, and neck.”

Injectable wrinkle fillers are all the rage these days, but Facial Plastic Surgeon Dr. Stephen Prendiville says they are not a solution for everyone.

Thank you for doing such an excellent operation on my face. It is one month today since you operated.
You had warned me that there might be visible scars, but you concealed them so well that they are hardly to be seen. My family were amazed, even right after the operation.”
