I posted my pictures previously and one surgeon said that my area of concern (my type of marionette lines and jowls) is not easy to correct and likely to recur after a facelift. I don't want to spend my savings if there is a higher chance that a facelift will be either less successful OR shorter lived.

Answer: Facial structure Thank you for your question and photos. You have lower face ptosis, with midface displacement. What is causing your skin folding over is the facial ligaments. These can be released in a facelift procedure, and will significantly improve your appearance. Pleas visit with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for a consultation.

Answer: Does my facial structure/type of sagging make it less likely that a Facelift will last 10 years? Hello @Learning430555 thank you for your question. Is important to see the overall face because of symmetry. Any type of surgical plan is subject to real possibilities of improvement and to the passage of time. A surgical solution is a new starting point for improvement that also needs a maintenance plan with non surgical treatments that help to sustain the process for a longer period of time. For more information and recommendations it is best to consult with one or several board certified plastic surgeons. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.
