I am 34 1/2 years old. Although I have a youthful face, I've started to notice marionette lines and the beginnings of jowls. I’ve tried fillers but they don’t correct the problem and make my face look heavy. I want to have a mini facelift and am wondering about advantages/disadvantages of having this procedure at my age? I prefer to take a preventative approach and address issues before they become too big. But will starting early make me look unnatural or create problems later? Thank you

Answer: Mini facelift
Dear Imarie123,
You should consider a second opinion if you are not getting the answers/results that you are expecting
It is hard to advise you without pictures, maybe the injection were not done correctly
A mini facelift would just help tighten a little skin, usually the jowl area
Best regards,

Answer: Facelift at 34 years
I think that 34 years of age is rather young for a facelift. Most of the signs of aging you are seeing are normal for your age and can be improved with non-invasive techniques like fillers. The disadvantages of having a facelift at your age are many. First, the risks (scaring/cosmetic imperfections, etc..) do not outweigh the benefits, considering that these can easily be treated non-invasively. Additionally, if you start now, by age 55 you'll probably have had 3 facelifts!
