I'm a male who had a mini lift back in July and I'm not very satisfied with the results I have a bit of jowling going on and a mild fullness to my chin. I didn't have much excess skin on neck so I was told a mini lift would work. My board certified PS said this procedure would last 15, yes 15 years. SMAS work was done. When would I be able to have a revision or should I wait for better results?

Answer: Mini-lift revision A mini facelift will only result in minimal temporary improvement in the jawline and cheeks.Tightening of the neck skin requires a direct approach to the neck. Options include the Precision Tx internal laser to improve the wringling, tighten the neck and reduce jowls. Liposuction of the submental region and jowls will tighten and smooth these areas. Botox or excision of Platysma muscle bands will improve subcutaneous banding. A neck lift will tighten neck skin; some patients are dissapointed due to recurrence of the fine wrinkles under the chin.Please consult in person with an experienced Board Certified Plastic Surgeon prior to making treatment decisions.
