37 Yr Male, Interested in Mini Face Tuck? (photo)

But the problem is my face – it appears swollen/baggy, especially on the on right side (So much so that people think I had a facial paralysis episode as a kid) and I feel using a mini tuck might help? My questions are: 1) Do you do/would you recommend a mini tuck for my case, and my age/weight? 2) If so, what is the approximate cost and recovery time? 3) Does BCBS PPO cover it? Thank you I will look forward to hearing from you.

Facial assymetry, mini face lift

Options to improve a baggy face include liposuction of the jowls and Botox injections to decrease the size of the masseter cheek muscles. Please consult in person with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon prior to making any treatment decisions. Prices range from $200 for botox to $2000 for facial /neck liposuction. Cheers see video

Facial asymmetry

You may have some facial asymmetry. It does need to be fully evaluated to see where and what is causing the asymmetry, then you can have a plan of correction. See a good Board Certified Plastic surgeon (American Board Of Plastic Surgery). Computer imaging can help
