Would a facelift correct deep lines that only appear during movement? (Photo)

Question

I am 37 years old. My skin on my face appears tight when I am looking straight ahead. However, when I look downward, the skin sags and loses all elasticity and these deep wrinkles appear in my lower face and neck. Would a face-lift correct this?

Hello, having lines with moment is actually normal, your skin saqs and some elasticity is normal. Moving the head up and down you will have lines and it is impossible to remove all of them.

face/neck lift for someone who looks good at rest i s good candidate. consider tightening skin with lasers and tightening radio frequency so you will have less lines when tilting your head down.

Hope this helps!

Hi dear, your problem looks like only on lower face. I cant evaluate your chin proportion. Maybe your chin is small too.So lower face and neck lift is good option for you. Please contact us for more detailed information and consultation

Hello; When you tilt your head to forward direction; on the neck and lower face; excess skin and wrinkles have formed. Considering for neck and lower face fields; with neck lift surgery; this problem can be solved.

It is normal to have lines in the neck/ face when flexing the neck, even babies have them. You do not seem to be a good candidate for an early face/neck lift. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with good reputation in facial
Rejuvenation may help. Good luck.

I think you are in the young side for a facelift. Even after a facelift you will have similar laxity when you put your chin down because during a facelift the skin is not tightened in that direction

Gary M. Horndeski, MD · Answer

Unfortunately, you have not provided a lateral view. A face lift can be used to pull the neck skin up. Another alternative would be a chin implant to take in some of the slack skin as well. It would be a less invasive procedure.

it is common to have distortion while in extreme positions such as having the neck hyperflexed. A face/neck lift is meant to address volume loss, tissue descent, and laxity of the the skin of the face and neck. As part of the examination, and in combination with photos, a full assessment of the degree of skin laxity can be evaluated. If there are no signs of jowling, volume loss or significant tissue descent, early laxity can often be addressed with less invasive procedures such as radiofrequency skin tightening before considering a face and neck lift. However, this can only be fully determined based on an exam at the time of consultation.

A lower face and neck lift would certainly improve these lines that you're talking about, however, a full set of facial and neck photographs that are in focus from all angles are gonna be required to make a determination about how best to proceed, since you're only 37 years old.

A facelift can help address deep lines and wrinkles that appear during movement by tightening the underlying facial muscles and removing excess skin. However, it is essential to note that a facelift primarily targets the lower face and neck, and may not fully address dynamic wrinkles that occur due to muscle movement. These wrinkles might also benefit from additional treatments such as botulinum toxin injections, skin boosters or fillers, which specifically target muscle activity and provide volume to the skin.
