Am I a Candidate for a Facelift at 32? (photo)

I must admit that even at the age of 32, you could use a facelift, although much of your problem is loss of volume. Your tear trough and mid cheek areas are very "deflated." This loss of volume has contributed to your jowls and generalized sagging by loss of support. If you decide on having a facelift, i would suggest that you have fat transfer at the same time and/or at a later date. The fat will not survive if injected into the area that has been elevated to achieve a facelift. Results from fat grafts can be inconsistent even under the best of conditions. However, I think you would be elated with a facelift with volumizing from fat or other products. Good luck on your trek toward a younger looking face.

I would like to add that premature aging can be from improper nutrition. I have personally seen this numerous times. Keep the simple carbohydrates, trans fats, and saturated fats to a minimal.

During your #consultation, your skin texture and elasticity, as well as your underlying skin structure and your facial bone structure will be evaluated. Based on this evaluation, your board certified plastic surgeons will create a custom surgical plan, detailing specific techniques and recommendations to meet your goals. In doing so, he or she should be sure to have a full understanding of what results you expect.

The best candidates for our #LiteLift surgery are non-smoking patients 35-60 years old with early changes of the lower face and the neck. But whose skin has elasticity with well defined bone structure. Older patients who cannot or do not wish to have a longer operation or general anesthetic can be improved with a Lite Lift™.  If you are not a #candidate, your surgeon can make other suggestions to address your concerns and objectives. 

Younger patients may benefit from nonsurgical treatments before considering surgery. You may want to explore fillers, Botox and laser technologies first before considering surgery. However, seeing your photo, you may benefit from surgery as well considering the severity of your wrinkles and creases.
