Most Effective For Face and Neck

The most effective face procedure for the face and neck is a comprehensive, anatomically correct facelift. Facelifts which can lift the appropriate layer can lead to long term, natural rejuvenation. see video

Comprehensive face/neck lift is most effective

A traditional comprehensive face/neck lift is the best option for addressing jowls, neck fat which is located above and below the platysma, neck cording, within anterior platysmal bands and excess skin both in the neck and facial areas. If eyes appear tired, blepharoplasty can help.

Facelift - jowls - neck and eyelids

Your question may be more accurately answered if photographs showing your concerns were attached. It is hard to buy clothing for someone without knowing their size or cook a meal without knowing what ingredients are available. In general, the upper eyelids can be improved with a removal of extra skin (if present) & fat. Occasionally, the brows / forehead may need to be repositioned for optimal improvement. I prefer to do a laser vertical Facelift technique for problems with the... more

Best Facelif Procedure for Jowls, Neck and Eyes

Traditional facelift (SMAS) combined with a neck lift and a forehead lift will be the answer. Deep plane facelift will do the same and might do it better for the jowl areas.

If there is too much skin in the upper eyes, then you need a blepharoplasty (eyelid tuck) which is completely separate from the facelift. Regards

It means someone with a good eye and a commitment to excellence, who can figure out exactly what to do for your particular anatomy. Go to a board certified plastic surgeon, and ask to see a lot of before and after pictures. My web site has links to the... more

There is not single most effective facelift procedure

Dear Jan There is no single best facelift for everyone. One thing we know is that cookie cutter surgery is a bad idea. Certain proprietary facelifts try to mass market the idea that a quickie facelift will solve all the facial concerns. This is simply not true. The single most important aspect of a facelift is a well trained, artistic, caring surgeon. Facelift must be tailored to the needs of the individual. The eyelids are addressed by eyelid surgery and not a facelift. The eyelid... more

Every face has an individualized plan...

The most effective procedure for anyone and in the areas you mention should be tailored to your specific problems and result in a natural and balanced appearance. A facelift will improve the area from your lower nose downward to the neck including the jowls. A blepharoplasty will improve your eyes. Sometimes a cheek lift is added for the area between the eyes and facelift. However, there is no generic "best" procedure for any of these since some patients may benefit from... more
