Why do facelifts look so unnatural? What prevents plastic surgeons from making seniors look like they did when they were 30?

When a 70 year old gets a facelift and plastic surgery, it looks like a 70 year old who had a facelift. Why is it impossible to convincingly reverse the effects of aging by tightening skin and re-sculpting?

It’s actually possible to have a facelift that looks normal. Some people just go overboard.

My mom needed medically recommended eyelid lifts (her lashes were turning under, small eyes). So she opted to add on the forehead lift and something else I forget now that she had to pay for as they weren’t medically recommended. But even just after it healed you’d never know she had anything done. Laugh lines, eye crinkle lines, forehead skin still scrunched up like it’s supposed to when you make certain faces.
