A facelift (rhytidectomy) corrects sagging of the face and neck. Over the years it is not only the skin that loosens: the deep muscular layer of the face (SMAS) also descends, which is why the jawline loses definition, folds deepen and jowls and a double chin appear.
That is why I do not just tighten the skin. In a hybrid facelift I reposition the SMAS, redrape the skin without pulling it tight and, if needed, restore volume with your own fat. The goal is for you to look rested and natural, not "done", while keeping your expression.
During your consultation I examine your face and neck, listen to what you would like to improve and tell you which areas are worth treating: forehead, cheeks, jawline and neck can be treated in the same surgery. If sagging is mild, I will tell you, because a smaller procedure such as double chin liposuction may be enough.
I operate in certified hospitals with the highest safety standards, because a harmonious result starts with safe surgery. I have experience welcoming patients from other cities and countries: most can fly home 7 to 12 days after surgery.

The technique
Hybrid facelift
It combines three actions in a single surgery and can treat the forehead, cheeks, jawline and neck at the same time.
SMAS repositioning
I reposition the deep muscular layer of the face (SMAS), which is what actually sags over the years. This gives a more natural, longer-lasting result than tightening the skin alone.
Skin redraping
I redrape the skin strategically, without pulling it tight, to preserve your expression.
Fat grafting
If needed, I restore volume to areas that have lost it, using your own fat.

“I came for my rhinoplasty like my mom, because I loved hers. Everyone was so welcoming and made me feel so comfortable. I 100% recommend Dr. Daza and his team.”
Ayme P.
“I am very happy with all the care from the doctor and his whole team! I highly recommend the doctor.”
Alejandra R. · Translated from Spanish
“It has been 9 days since my Mommy Makeover with Dr. José Daza Flores. The nursing and spa team are wonderful: they made me feel calm the whole time. The massages are not the typical painful massage other people describe. Many thanks to Brenda, Imelda, Alberto, Rosario and Dr. Daza. 100% recommended! ❤️”
Alejandra F. · Translated from Spanish
“From the very beginning, Dr. José Daza took the time to listen to what was important to me and made sure I felt comfortable and confident every step of the way. His attention to detail and calm, professional presence made a world of difference. His team was just as incredible: compassionate, attentive, and genuinely caring. Nurse Imelda stood out with her kindness and reachouts throughout the process, and a special thank you to Brenda for her exceptional post-op massages, which made my recovery more comfortable. Highly recommend!”
Maureena J.
“From the very beginning, Dr. Daza stood out not just for his professionalism, but for the kindness and genuine care he shows to every single patient. After a deeply disappointing experience with another doctor, Dr. Daza was honest with me from day one and helped restore my confidence too. I initially came for a rhinoplasty, and later returned to have him correct the previous work. From the nurses and assistants to the spa team, his entire staff creates an atmosphere that feels safe, warm, and supportive. Thank you, Dr. Daza, for everything you've done for me.”
Nadine P.
“3 months after my gluteal implant surgery. I spent almost a month looking for a surgeon with experience in gluteal implants, and I was lucky to find Dr. Daza: he did an amazing job, with just one incision between the glutes, so you don't see the scar at all. A great thing is that Dr. Daza operates in his own clinic, so you always know where to go. Big thank you to the front desk girls and all the nurses, especially Imelda and Brenda; I felt at home. Definitely recommend Dr. Daza and his team.”
Dmitry G.
“Always the best care from everyone: the nursing team always attentive, the reception staff always very kind, the massage therapist outstanding and very professional, very careful so you don't feel pain, and above all the doctor, excellent and very experienced; he always understands the results you are looking for without neglecting any detail to protect your health. I recommend them 1000% 🫶”
Beatriz M. · Translated from Spanish
“My experience with Dr. Daza and his whole team has been excellent. From the very first moment I felt incredible human warmth and professionalism. Every member of the team, in every area, is attentive, kind and very professional; they make you feel safe and supported at all times. I want to highlight the lovely care from Brenda, Zara and Alberto, wonderful and professional people. I recommend Dr. Daza 100%: he is an excellent surgeon, highly trained and a great leader, which shows in his great team.”
Brizeida M. · Translated from Spanish
“I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Daza and his entire team! Everyone was professional, caring, and welcoming. A special thank you to Brenda, who went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and supported throughout the process. I'm very happy with my experience and truly appreciate the care I received. Highly recommend!”

Karin · Translated from Spanish
“This is my second surgery with Dr. Daza and I am very happy. Highly recommended!”
It is for people with moderate to severe sagging of the face and neck who do not smoke (or have quit) and still have some skin elasticity. If sagging is mild, non-surgical treatments may be enough. I will confirm this during your consultation.
Where are the scars?
In front of and behind the ear, following its natural folds so they go unnoticed.
Which areas can be treated?
Forehead, midface (cheeks), jawline and neck. They can be treated in a single surgery.
What about thread lifts?
I do not recommend them: they do not reposition the deep layers of the face and their effect is limited.
I have experience welcoming patients from other cities and countries. Most can fly home 7 to 12 days after surgery. During your consultation we will help you plan your travel dates.
Do you use technology to tighten the skin?
Yes. Along with surgery, I use fourth-generation ultrasound, professional intraoperative radiofrequency and other advanced technologies that help the skin tighten and adapt to the new contour. I also use them in surgery of the body, arms, hands and legs.
How much does a facelift cost in Mexico City?
It depends on the areas treated and whether it is combined with another procedure, such as blepharoplasty. That is why I do not quote a price without examining your face: during your consultation I plan your surgery with you and you receive a complete quote.
Why choose a board-certified plastic surgeon?
A facelift requires in-depth knowledge of facial anatomy. Dr. Daza holds specialty license 6204435 and Board certification no. 1477, current (recertified in 2024). Before having surgery with any doctor, verify their specialty license in Mexico’s National Registry of Professionals.
Where is the surgery performed?
In certified hospitals with the highest safety standards, because a harmonious result starts with safe surgery.
