I've seen 2 Dr regarding sagging on my face.One suggested endoscopic mid face lift saying it would lift up my sagging cheeks and that would be enough to reshape my face to its youthful look.He also said I'm too young for an invasive face lift.Other Dr suggested short scar face lift saying endoscopic lift wouldn't be effective to get the result I wish to get like in my younger picture which is a nice V shaped face.Please tell me your opinions and help me choose the right and the best treatment.Tx
