I'm 51 and Want to Look Better, Where Do I Start? I haven't had any thing done yet but know it's time for some maintenance. Problem is I'm unfamiliar with my options and the seemingly limitless choices. I don't want to be cut unless it's very minor and behind my ear. So where should I start? Where can I get the biggest bang for my buck? Botox, Laser, Thermage, injectables?Please Help!

Minimal procedures would make a noticeable improvement in your face.
If you want minimal procedures that give a lot of bang for their buck, then liposuction of your jawline under local anesthesia for around $2500, botox for the crows feet for $300 and a medium chemical peel for the face and neck for 1000-1500 would accomplish a lot and is so easy to undergo.

drooping of the nasal tip

long upper lip
The recommended procedures would depend on what specifically bothers you, how much...

Best approachbto reverse aging.
My advice for someone who photographs as you do is to consider upper blepharoplasties and a facelift. If you want to call it a mini lift so be it. You would not need as extensive a procedure
as might be indicated 10 years from now. Use the fillers, Botox and other minimally invasive procedures to augment the results of the surgery.
