I am a 24 year old man and I am going to keep it short and tell you that I used to be into facial massage cause I thought it would help me stay young looking and was easy but I got carried away and ended up rubbing my face for too long and too hard (and this is hard to believe but this is for real) and eventually I noticed my face is terribly saggy. I am getting soooo sick of this docs I know I am young but If i show you pics I am certain you will say I legitmately need some kind of skin tightenin
I agree with the other surgeons. Your question absolutely requires photos at the very least. Facelift is not based on age, but rather the anatomy.
Does face lift threading produce the same results as a traditional face lift?
When thread lifts first came out, they were all the rage and used by many practitioners. Unfortunately, the results have not stood up over time. There have been problems with infection or extrusion of the sutures as well as relapse of the pulled tissues. The best solution for jowls is open surgery.

My husband had a face/neck lift 3 days ago. He wore a thick bandage with drains for 2 days, took anti-inflammatory and antibiotics. His face is very swollen, and he is asked to sleep on his back for a month. My sister is having the same procedure in Paris but tells me she won't even stay overnight, she plans to rest at home for a few days and start work after 7 days. Her doctor says she can sleep on her side no problem. Same procedure - why the difference? Asking because I'm scheduled for same!
There are certainly variations between face lifting techniques and recovery time associated with each of these techniques. Nonetheless I feel that it is in the patient's best interest to keep the postoperative recovery as simple as possible. The more surgery that you have performed with your facelift -- including browlift, blepharoplasty, deep plane lifting, etc. -- the longer your recovery will be to a degree. I will frequently tailor my postoperative recommendations slightly for each patient, as I hope to keep the postoperative recovery period as smooth and simple as possible.
