I'm 49 and considering a lower facelift. I would like to lift the jowling I have and tighten the skin under my neck. Thank you.
Answer: Lower face/neck lift You are a very good candidate for lower face/neck lift; it will shape your neck by means of removal of fat excess, thighten/shape platysma muscle, address the jawline and jowls. In person consultation with a plastic surgeon with good reputation in face/neck lifts, is recommended. Good luck.

Answer: Deep plane facelift and deep plane necklift Thank you for your question and sharing your photographs. To control better the laxity of the skin under the chin, a more vertical vector for the facelift would be valuable. The deep plane approach for facelift tends to provide this type of impact and it seems like a favourable solution for you. For the neck contouring, there is also some volume excess which would not be corrected by the skin tightening alone. The deep plain necklift intervention can address the neck girth more effectively and produces an improved balance between the characteristics of the face and of the neck.

Answer: A lower Face/Neck Lift is just what the doctor ordered! But ONLY under local. You would do great with a lower face/neck lift under local with a little iv sedation for complete comfort. Downtime is 1-2 weeks and there is minimal to no pain afterwards. Bruising is minimal and you look amazing in only 2 days.

Answer: Yes A facelift will tighten the skin underneath your chin and lift your jowls. The addition of facial fat grafting will help fill in the hollows in the corners of your mouth and restore fullness to your cheeks and midface.

Answer: Lower facelift and neck lift From the photos, I would recommend lower facelift ( will correct the jowls ) and lift up the cheek (as long as it is a deep plane facelift ). I also would recommend a neck lift to make sure your lower face and neck are balanced and the transition is smooth and youthful.

Answer: Will a lower facelift address the loose neck skin and corners of the mouth? The short answer is a neck and lower facelift may not be enough. Even though you are young, the heaviness in the neck and lower face may require more advanced techniques, such as deep plane facelift and deep neck lift, to achieve a satisfactory result. The corners of the mouth are typically not lifting (at all) with traditional SMAS lower facelift and require an extended deep plane approach in which the entire midface and midfacial fat pads are mobilized and key retaining ligaments of the face are released. Without the midface dissection and release of retaining ligaments, the corners of the mouth and cheeks will not be mobile enough to be repositioned enough to improve those areas. Consider consulting with a surgeon that performs extended deep plane facelifting.
