It usually lasts 6 to 10 years, although the older you are when you have the first one, you may need a touch up before 5 years. It is safe to have more than one. If your general health is good, there is no top age.
Dear Harriet,
While there are many opinions about this, I believe that one needs to have a facelift once in their lifetime. There isn’t a chronological time when this is performed that could be in the 60s or even the 70s. With the advent of fillers and nonsurgical tightening procedures like Ultherapy, Facelift is commonly performed in patients in their 60s In my practice. Just looking at the posted picture, barring your full physical examination you seem like a good candidate for eyelid rejuvenation prior to a facelift.
