Is 37 Too Young for a Quick Lift?

Age doesn't matter

What is most important is that your extent of jowling, loose skin and health are appropriate for surgery.

Appearance Main Determination for Mini Lift, Not Age.

The Jowls and loose skin you describe indicate that you are likely a good candidate for a mini lift procedure like the Quick Lift. However, a consultation with an exam would be needed to verify this. With a Quick Lift, Lite Lift™, or other mini lift procedures you can look the way you feel.

What is the "right" age for a QuickLift?

The QuickLift is a variation fo purse string facelift appropriate for patients in good health with mild to moderate jowling and looseness. Age is irrelevant.

In other words, if you are in good health, and you have appreciable howling, age is irrellevant.

Quicklift in a 37 year old

Quicklift is a specific kind of procedure which uses a couple of circular sutures similar to the MACS type lift but with incision extended behind the ear as in mini-face lift incisions. The Quicklift is an excellent lift for rejuvenation of the lower face and neck but especially in patients who need to enhance midface or cheek volume. I would not recommend it as my first choice in patients with heavy faces. With regards to your age, it is a bid on the younger side and I wonder if a more... more

It is not unnatural to have this done at your age.  I do minimally invasive cheek lifts in my office for patients with similar complaints; no scars on the face.

Age limit for Quicklift

There is no true age limit to a facial rejuvanation procedures, including Quicklift.  The youngest person I have performed Facial rejuvenation surgery is 27 and the oldest is over 80.  The procedures are a bit different but the age alone is not a contraindication.

Quicklift, lifestylelift, midfacelifts are popular for many

No, people your age do get this procedure. All people age differently. This procedure helps to rejuvenate. It does help the nasolabial folds, the jowls, and the neck, but results will vary with the patients anatomy. A consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon is recommended.
