Fraxel Repair or Lift for the Whole Face and Neck?

I had an endoscopic brow lift in 2004. It still looks great. However, my mouth wrinkles are bad and neck needs a little help! I have some sun damage all over. I'm confused about going with Fraxel Repair for the whole face and neck or some type of lift. Please help. I am 56 years old.

 
A: Fraxel laser or face lift and neck lift

Although you appear to have some laxity of your skin in the jowls and neck which can be addressed with the use of a fractional CO2 laser, the issues that seem most prominent are the platysmal bands in your neck and the excess skin in your neck. I think you would obtain only slight tightening of the skin and no real improvement in the banding in your neck or much elevation of your jowl skin. If your mouth is a major concern, then the Fraxel laser works best.
