Hello! Pregnancy drastically changed my face. I'm 39, which seems young for a face lift, but is that what I need? I have already done morpheus 8 and I had a threadlift, which I'm not interested in doing again because it didn't last. My neck and jawline were snatched before pregnancy but I gained a lot of weight (which I've lost all but 10 pounds of now). One surgeon I consulted with said facelift, another said smart lipo. What do you all think?

Answer: Best Procedure? As you noted, energy devices like Morpheus and Ultherapy don't do much to address the problem that you describe (which is why I no longer recommend them). You do have indications which a facelift would address, possibly along with a small chin implant. Whether or not you are comfortable with this solution is up to. Surgical candidacy relies on 1) good health, 2) indications, 3) desire to address those indications. If you feel more comfortable waiting, that's entirely up to you.

Answer: Neck Do not do lipo. I barely see any fat in your neck so the lipo is not going to treat your problems. It looks like, and sounds like, you need to get some of the skin tightened and possibly address the muscle underneath the skin too. That can only be accomplished via a lift procedure. 39 is not too young; we can start doing face lifts on people as early as 34-35.
