Is 39 too young for a face lift?

Asked By:June12

Is 39 too young for a face lift? I recently had juvederm for marionette lines and nasolabial folds and think they helped to smooth my cheeks out, but my marionette line on the left looks worse. I'm wondering if I just need a lift. My whole lower face seems to be sagging. I wonder if I'm a good candidate for a face lift or if I need to find someone with more skill to inject dermal fillers.
