I know fillers are recommended over a facelift before 30. But if I can place my fingers on my hairline and pull gently back and THEN I see the face I recognize makes me wonder how fillers can be enough. Fine lines=fixed , texture=fixed , smoothness and suppleness=fixed. And how do I prevent changes to my facial muscle structure, my eyes, my heart shaped lips. All of these things solved and even improved over my most youthful face by a simple pull up and back from above my ears and eyebrows.

Answer: Mini face lift expectations Thanks for your question. You have a beautiful and youthful face! Do not have a facelift. I would suggest Botox & a small amount of filler, but more importantly medically-managed skin care. This includes quality products (does not have to be the most expensive), laser resurfacing/tightening, and routine medical facials to help exfoliate. I hope that helps a little? Best wishes

Answer: Late 20s mini face lift? There are many things to consider with regards to facial rejuvenation. The tone and texture of your skin are much better now than they will be when you are thirty or forty years older. As they say "enjoy your youth". The elasticity of your skin decreases over time and is determined by many things. Genetics, Father time, general health, diet, exercise, weight cycles, smoking, alcohol, sun exposure, diabetes, thyroid condition and even stress all determine each and everyone's "elasticity equation". Only an in office evaluation can determine what the best course of action will be in your case. It would be very rare to see a patient still in their 20s require a face lift. I have had a rare patient in their early 30s with extenuating circumstances need a face lift, but our elasticity is generally adequate until our mid to late 40s at the earliest. Fillers, surface laser treatments, or even the newer "FaceTite" procedure may get you the tone and texture that you desire. My Best!John Standefer MD
