A 70-year-old woman’s astonishing facelift transformation has captivated audiences online.

Beverly Hills-based plastic surgeon Dr Carl Truesdale took to TikTok last month to share some before and after clips of a recent patient he had worked on, and viewers couldn’t believe how different she looked after going under the knife.

The journey was documented on TikTok, starting with a heartfelt moment as the unnamed woman spoke to the camera just before her surgery.

Fighting back tears, she expressed her emotions, saying, “I’m just so happy, I’m just so grateful. I’m so excited.”

The video then transitioned to footage of her one month post-surgery, where she couldn’t contain her excitement over the dramatic change.

“It’s amazing, it’s just so amazing. He said he was going to take 30 years off my life and boy, he kept his word,” she exclaimed.

With newfound confidence, she added, “When people ask me how old I am, I’m gonna say 40. I went through the Truesdale time machine.”

The footage of the woman’s impressive transformation has gone viral, raking in more than 12 million views.

Many viewers were in awe at how much younger the facelift made her look and rushed to the comment section to share their thoughts.

‘This is the most natural facelift I’ve ever seen in my life,’ wrote one user.

‘It looks so natural omg,’ agreed another.

‘Dr. Truesdale… You are a miracle worker from God!’ gushed someone else.

‘I would never know she was actually 70,’ a fourth comment read.

A fifth said: ‘If she dyed her hair a darker color, she could easily pass for mid-40s.’

‘Now THIS is the plastic surgery look I can get behind. She looks incredible and so happy, and it doesn’t look fake or crazy at all. Nice job,’ praised a different viewer.

‘Wow. 30 years younger,’ another stunned user penned.

‘You don’t go overboard. This is refreshing to see,’ someone else chimed in.

‘He sure did take 30-plus years off! Awesome, so natural,’ a different comment read.

Dr Truesdale often shares his work on TikTok, where he has racked up more than 158,000 followers.

He focuses on ‘surgical and non-surgical solutions to rejuvenate, contour and bring natural beauty to your face, ears, eyes, nose, jawline and hairline,’ per his website.

He previously went viral after he gave his mom, Linda, who was 68 at the time, a ‘mommy makeover’ and documented it on social media. 

Over the course of almost a year, Linda underwent more than five procedures, which saw nearly all parts of her face and neck ‘lifted,’ as well as fat injected to add volume lost due to age. 

For her first round of surgery in September 2023, Dr Truesdale cut extra skin away from her upper and lower eyelids and from under her nose to give a more lifted look. 

For the next procedure, he performed a brow lift, a complete face and neck lift, and he also transferred fat from one part of her body to her under-eye and cheek areas for a more youthful look.

Thrilled with her new appearance, Linda said, ‘I have to make sure that I maintain [this] and that I keep a positive attitude.

‘We’re all aging but at 68, I feel great. This is what I felt inside – the youthfulness – and now I can see it on the exterior.’

Her son added, ‘Most kids add wrinkles to their mothers’ faces. I was able to take some away, which is really, really special.

‘She was already confident, she already had a beautiful personality but I see that youthfulness and I see that vigor that’s returned in her. She’s looking really great.’

After making his mom’s transformation public, Dr Truesdale admitted that he received some criticism for operating on a family member. 

But defending his decision to give his mom a facelift, he said: ‘A lot of people were saying my mom didn’t need surgery and I completely agree.

‘My philosophy with all plastic surgery right outside of the reconstructive things that we do… is [for people] to feel great about the way that they look.

‘I had the ability to do that for my mom. So even though she doesn’t need to look younger, it makes her life better… improves her quality of life and we only have so much time to live, so we better be as happy as we can be.

‘I personally know probably ten surgeons who have done work on their family members. You know… their moms, their wives [but] there’s only a couple that I know have done it pretty publicly.’
