The Art and Science Behind a Natural Facelift

Many patients today are not looking to appear drastically different. They want to look like themselves, just more refreshed. A natural facelift focuses on restoring the deep tissue structures that have descended with age, rather than simply pulling the skin tight. Dr. Ruben Castro’s approach combines artistic intuition with technical precision, targeting key anchor points of facial support. The goal is to lift where needed while preserving expressions and character. Ideal candidates are typically in their 40s to 60s, noticing midface volume loss, jowling, and neck laxity. When done properly, a facelift should be imperceptible. Friends notice you look great, not “done.”
