I'm only 38 and am really bothered by the folds around my mouth as the make me look 10 years older than I am. Should I have a facelift or will fillers work?
Answer: Facelift or Fillers? What you are describing is actually volume loss, and while a facelift will tighten skin it will not correct your specific concerns by adding volume. I would say that starting with dermal fillers to minimize your nasolabial folds and lift and re-contour your cheeks would eliminate the heaviness in the jowls and produce a result that you would love. I would seek treatment from a highly skilled injector or board-certified plastic surgeon who is able to keep you looking very natural while addressing your concerns in a way that leaves you feeling more confident.

Answer: Fillers Over Facelift Thank you for your question! At this time you look like you'd be a great for injectables such as Voluma, Juvederm and Botox. The Voluma will give you a nice subtle and natural lift from the apples of your cheeks while the Juvederm fills in your marionette lines. Botox would be great in ridding any tiny fine lines round your eyes that you may have. Scheduling an in-person consultation with a surgeon or an accredited nurse injector will give them a chance to truly evaluate which injectables you would benefit from. Good luck!

Answer: Face lift vs fillers Thank you for your question and for attaching photos. Since your concern is the nasolabial folds, fillers are a great option. A face lift is a great procedure, but it does not correct this area. Many times fat grafting is done at the same time of a face lift to improve the NLF area. Find an experienced injector in a dermatology or plastic surgery practice for your fillers. You should be happy with the results. Best of luck.

Answer: Filler can be wonderful Great question! At your young age, surgery seems like too much. I would recommend fillers to both your nasolabial folds and corners of your mouth. Columns of hyaluronic acid such as juvaderm ultra or ultra plus can be laid under the skin to lift the mouth corners up too. The goal with fillers is to diminish shadows and the result is immediate. Find someone in your area who has great reviews. I have a nurse who has worked for me for 28 years is amazing. Some surgeons love injecting too.
