Which to Do First - Mandibular Advancement or Midface Lift? Following my orthodontics treatment, I will have mandibular advancement surgery. But as you can see from the pictures, I also need a mid-face lift. I got different opinions from different surgeons regarding the order of the operations.I'm really confused.

A: Timing of facial cosmetic surgery

I don't think it makes much difference in the timing. Based on your photos you have fairly minimal jowling and any midface lift is likely to address the upper cheek area rather than the jawline. Also, have you considered simply fat grafting to the nasolabial fold and cheek areas rather than a lift. It may do the job.

What is a Mid-face Lift? What is a midface lift? How is that different from a regular facelift or a mini face-lift?

A: Midface lifting addresses the sagging present in your...

Midface lifting addresses the sagging present in your cheeks with aging. It can help improve your cheeks and lower eyelids, leaving you looking refreshed and younger.

Fat that is normally centered high over your cheekbones descends with age, giving a flat appearance to the face and heavy lines in the nasolabial area.

Any procedure that increases the volume in the cheek region can have the effect of lifting the midface, such as:

Implants
Filler
Fat injections

Surgery to lift the midface produces the longest lasting effects because it actually takes the fallen tissues and puts them back where they belong. Recovery time for midface lifting can be several weeks with prolonged swelling and cheek numbness being the most worrisome problems.

Hope this helps!
