Mini Neck Lift and 'Pinch' Bleph For Me?? (photo)

Thank you for your question.  You look lovely and have excellent skin.  I think it is early for you to consider neck lift surgery. However if you do decide to have a procedure it is important that you choose the proper procedure.

The 2 small folds seen on  your neck are most likely caused by the Platysma Muscles beneath the skin and a mini neck lift will not address them.  So if you are going to have the procedure the muscles must be addressed which is not usually done with a mini neck lift.

A skin pinch blepharoplasty will tighten the lower eyelid skin but superficial wrinkles  will not be corrected.  If you feel you have Hollow eyes then fat grafting is required  to correct  Hollow eye caused by previous fat resection.  In my experience only laser resurfacing can remove surface wrinkles from the eyelid.  However laser resurfacing of the lower eyelid can cause lid retraction if canthopexy is not done to tighten lid support.

 

Based on your photos and age, you should do well with the minimally invasive procedures you described.  Best wishes on your recovery.

 A neck lift procedure involves removal of fat above and below the platysma muscle and tightening the platysma muscle, called a platysma-plasty in the front part of the neck. When jowls are present  and excess neck skin laxity are present, then a lower face and neck lift must be performed for best results. With respect to the lower lids a very conservative pinch technique or  fractionated CO2 laser may help with the wrinkles on the lower lids.
