I would like to add volume to my cheeks and fill in my nasolabial olds and lines on my chin and mouth. Would I be better off with a lower face lift and possible fat transfer or fillers like sculpture, radiuses or juvederm?

Answer: What Age is Best for a Facelift A person’s age is best guessed by the appearance of their face. If you feel that your face does not reflect how young you feel inside, you may be a candidate for a facelift. 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. If you are not a #candidate, your surgeon can make other suggestions to address your concerns and objectives.

Answer: Surgical or Non-Surgical Options for 75 Year Old to Look Younger Although a personal consultation would allow me to closely examine your face and be more specific concerning what is best for you to look younger, based on your photos, I would offer the following information. Various fillers can plump up the nasolabial folds and scattered lines, softening them and making them less distinct. Volumizer fillers can add bulk to you cheek bone areas and temples. However none of these are permanent. Fat grafting can add fullness to your cheeks but is a surgical procedure and more involved that just injecting fillers. Although some of the fat may dissolve, whatever survives the grafting will last for many years. So if you just want to add volume or soften some lines, then the injectables or fat grafting may suffice. However, if you are bothered by your loose skin on the cheeks or neck, the bulges (jowls) near the sides of your chin, or even the loose saggy muscle bands I see on your neck, then there is no substitute for a lower facelift to create a smoother, firmer neck and lower cheek. At surgery, you could always have fat grafted into the cheeks to add some fullness there if desired. You really should have a thorough discussion with an experienced plastic surgeon to better understand which treatments will give you the improvement you are looking for.

Answer: Facelift Thanks for sharing. Easily a lower facelift and possible fat transfer will get you the best results. It does cost more with more recovery time but fillers alone will not get you the results that you desire. Speak in person with several board certified plastic / facial plastic surgeon.
