Early 30s facelift. What are the best options?

Photographs and a formal evaluation are needed to determine the best solution for you. Generally speaking, FaceTite can internally tighten the skin in the lower face and neck. After all the skin has been heated and contracted, we shape the neck with liposuction to give definition and remove stubborn pockets of fat. In one quick treatment, we can tighten skin, remove fat, and contour the lower face, jawline, and jowls with only a weekend of downtime.Keep in mind that combination approaches will give you a more significant improvement as opposed to a single procedure. I recommend getting a consultation with a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Hi columbiabound, thanks for your question.  The age range for most candidates having lower face/neck lift is >40 years.  It is relatively uncommon, though not unheard of, for patients to undergo this procedure at an earlier age.  The procedures which may be more helpful for younger patients such as yourself may including liposuction of the lower face/neck area to help tighten and better define that area, along with perhaps some augmentation of the cheek/malar region.  This combination can definitely help convert a "square" face into one that is more "heart-shaped" in appearance.  Hope this helps!
