How Fillers and Facelifts Work Together in Modern Facial Rejuvenation

In this episode of The Plastic Surgery Revolution, Dr. Steven Davis explores how modern filler techniques and facelift surgery have evolved to complement — not compete with — each other.

He addresses a common misconception that previous filler use might make future facelift procedures more difficult. Dr. Davis breaks down how the placement and depth of injectables truly matter, explaining that intradermal hyaluronic acid fillers, when done correctly, are entirely safe and even beneficial for skin quality.

Using his trademark clarity and passion for teaching, Dr. Davis walks listeners through the anatomy of the skin — from the epidermis to the deeper layers beneath — to show how different treatments work on different levels. He describes how fillers “paint within the skin,” helping restore structure and vitality to the dermis, while facelift surgery works below that layer to reposition and tighten the underlying tissue.

The result? A new understanding of how nonsurgical and surgical treatments can work in harmony to create natural, lasting rejuvenation.
