Non-surgical face lifting

Treatment overview

Over time the face doesn’t age only on the surface — changes happen in the deeper layers of the skin and supporting structures. Loss of collagen, elasticity and volume leads to tissue descent, loss of contour and a tired look.

Non-surgical face lifting is a contemporary, sophisticated approach to rejuvenation that addresses these deeper causes of ageing — without surgery, without lengthy recovery and without changing your natural appearance.

What makes this treatment particularly valuable is that it doesn’t act on a single level — it combines different technologies and methods to achieve:

  • a lifting effect
  • improved skin quality
  • restoration of volume
  • redefined facial contours

The modern non-surgical lift is no longer simply “an alternative to surgery” — it’s a distinct approach that delivers more natural, gradual results without the abrupt changes that give a treatment away.

Patients often don’t arrive with a single problem; they arrive with a feeling that their face has “changed” — that it has lost firmness, definition and freshness.

It shows up in photographs, in everyday interactions or simply in the mirror — when the face no longer reflects the energy you feel.

In social and professional settings, where first impressions form quickly, this subtle difference can affect a sense of confidence and self-assurance.

Non-surgical face lifting restores structure and balance — without changing your face.
The result isn’t “someone else” — it’s the best version of you.


How the treatment is performed

The treatment isn’t based on a single method, but on an individually designed plan that may include several technologies.

During the procedure:

  • the condition of the skin and facial structure are assessed
  • the degree of tissue laxity is evaluated
  • a combination of treatments is defined
  • targeted action is delivered to different layers of the skin

Depending on need, the treatment can include lifting, collagen stimulation and volume restoration.


Who the treatment is for

The treatment is ideal for people who:

  • notice skin laxity and a loss of firmness
  • want a lifting effect without surgery
  • want a natural result without abrupt changes
  • want long-term improvement in skin quality

It suits anyone looking for subtle yet effective rejuvenation.


Our approach

A non-surgical lift isn’t a single treatment — it’s a strategy.

At our clinic we treat every patient individually, looking at the face as a whole and defining a plan that makes sense over the long term.

We don’t deal in one-size-fits-all solutions.

We combine technology and medical experience to deliver a result that is natural, balanced and long-lasting.

We take time over the assessment and the explanation — because confidence comes from understanding.

Patients usually don’t notice a “dramatic change” — but they notice they look fresher, more lifted and more pleased with the result.


Preparing for the treatment

Before the treatment, we recommend:

  • arriving with clean skin
  • avoiding aggressive treatments for a few days beforehand
  • letting your doctor know about any medication you’re taking

Recovery and precautions

Recovery depends on the combination of treatments, but it is generally minimal.

The following can occur:

  • mild redness
  • a tight feeling

Recommendations:

  • avoid sun exposure and use SPF
  • follow your doctor’s aftercare instructions

When results become visible

Results develop gradually.

  • the first effects are visible relatively quickly
  • the full result develops over several weeks

Outcome:

  • a lifted appearance to the face
  • improved skin quality
  • a natural, fresh look

Treatment combinations

The non-surgical lift is built on a combination of leading-edge technologies:

  • HIFU — lifting deeper structures
  • Morpheus8 — collagen stimulation and tightening
  • CO2 Smaxel — skin regeneration and texture
  • Candela Nordlys — skin quality and tone
  • Icoone Laser Med — microcirculation and regeneration

Additionally:

  • dermal fillers for volume
  • Botox for facial expression

All combinations are planned individually — because every lift has to be tailored to the face.

Price

The price of a non-surgical face lift depends on the amount of fillers and Botox used and the patient’s specific needs. The final price is set during a consultation at Poliklinika dr. Jelena Jakić, where we tailor the treatment to your goals and preferences.

    FAQ

    Frequently asked questions

    Here you’ll find answers to the questions our clients most often ask about our services and treatments.

    + What does “non-surgical face lifting” involve?
    It is a sophisticated, combined approach that achieves a tightening and rejuvenating effect without surgery. It can include a combination of dermal fillers, biostimulators (Sculptra, Radiesse, Ellansé), Botox and technologies such as Morpheus8 or HIFU, depending on individual needs.
    + How visible are the results?
    The results are visible — but in a way that looks natural. Patients usually notice they look fresher, more rested and “tighter”, without the sense of having had a procedure.
    + When can I expect the full effect?
    Part of the result is visible immediately, while the full effect develops gradually over several weeks to months, particularly when biostimulators are used.
    + How long does the result last?
    Depending on the combination of treatments, the result can last from one to two years, with proper maintenance.
    + Is this an alternative to a surgical lift?
    In certain stages of ageing — yes. For mild to moderate changes it can deliver excellent, satisfying results without surgery.
    + Is recovery needed?
    Minimal — most patients return to everyday activities very quickly.
    + Why is an individual plan key for this treatment?
    Because there is no universal “lift”. Every face needs a different combination of approaches — which is exactly why the consultation and planning are the most valuable part of this treatment.
