About this listen
Is 40 really too young for a facelift, or is that an outdated way of thinking?
In this episode of the Beauty and the Beasts Podcast, Dr. Sam Jejurikar and Dr. Sal Pacella explore how facial aging actually works and why the right timing for facial rejuvenation has far less to do with age than most people think.
They discuss how volume loss, tissue laxity, weight changes, and overall health contribute to an aging appearance, and why modern facelift techniques allow for more personalized and natural results than ever before. The conversation breaks down commonly used terms like deep plane facelift and mini facelift, explaining what they really mean and why procedure names should never drive decision making.
The episode also covers realistic recovery timelines, the emotional ups and downs patients often experience after surgery, and how social media and celebrity culture have reshaped expectations around facial rejuvenation. Rather than promoting a one time solution, the discussion reframes facelifting as a thoughtful, long term approach to aging well.
This episode is designed for patients seeking clarity, surgeons thinking critically about technique, and anyone curious about what facial rejuvenation looks like in the modern era.
