I had a full surgical facelift at 48. It included neck and brow plus I had my eyes lifted too. Great result. I am now 61 and am getting some sag and jowls again (minimal). Would a mini face lift now be a good option for me? Thank you.
Yes, a "mini" may be all you need to get you back to looking and feeling your best. However, it depends on your lifestyle (smoking, sun exposure), and natural aging factors. Occasionally other procedures such as fat grafting and skin resurfacing play a role in secondary facelift surgery.
why do some doctors do mini or s-lifts with local and others more asleep anesthesia?
Thank you for the question.
Facelift surgery can be done under local, IV sedation, or general anesthesia. In my opinion, more important than the type of anesthesia used is the selection of plastic surgeon. Make this selection process your first priority; not the type of anesthesia used.
Best wishes.
Hi At 32, I suffer from a prematurely aged mid face area. Gravity has pulled the fat down from the area underneath my chin bone to below the corners of my mouth as you can see. Would a mid face lift help me to reduce my 'jowly' appearance as well as reducing the hollowed cheeks, drawn face look? My aim would not be to look 25, but to not have people surprised when I tell them my real age. I've tried restylane (1ml each side) in the cheek, didn't think it helped much. Thanks
You look fairly young, and your primary issue may be volume loss. It is difficult to make a precise recommendation from a photo, but cheek implants (submalar) may be worth considering. Fat grafting can also help but may not be as dramatic in your case.
