Would I benefit from a lift at 30? (Photo)

Dear Luminous744398,
Thankyou for providing pictures for reference. As per your pictures you seem to be experiencing face laxity, meaning your skin is losing its firmness and tightness which could be due to many factors like weight loss stress etc. In such a case a full-face lift is most beneficial for a permanent solution it would target neck, midface and temporal area covering the sagging jowls. I would suggest to look into expert surgeons who deals in scarless endoscopic vertical facelift which would give you a natural look after full recovery. Moreover, scarless would mean that the lift incisions will be hidden in you hairline and after full recovery will be invisible to see. I recommend vertical facefiit so that you dont get a pulled or artificial look. Furthermore, fat injections is also a technique I would suggest for the areas around your mouth for any deep wrinkles or smile lines, it would greatly fill in the lack of volume.
Best Regards,

Thank you for your question and detailed photos. Facelift procedures are generally suggested for those looking to reverse signs of aging and improve skin laxity. While you may not be a candidate for this procedure, I understand your desire for a long-term surgical solution.
You may consider a buccal lipectomy (buccal fat removal) to reduce excess fullness in the face and contour the area below the cheekbones and along the jawline. I recommend that you schedule an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon who can assess your needs on a more individual basis.

Hello @Luminous744398, thank you for your question and showing your pictures. You are too young for a facelift and its not beneficial in the long run. There are several surgical and non-surgical alternatives to improve and make the changes you want in your face. It is important to make a personalized appointment to agree on a treatment plan that can meet your expectations. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

I’m not surprised the non invasive methods did nothing. Don’t get a facelift at your age, although you will have no problem finding a surgeon willing to do it

From your photos and descriptions excess fat in the cheeks and in the submental neck region are the major issue. You don’t have significant skin laxity. I Woukd probably suggest laser assisted submental liposuction in the neck and jawline region and buccal fat removal. A form of a deep plane approach also allows direct access to the buccal fat and combined with fat removal can be safely done with a completely natural result by a surgeon with experience with that technique but your laxity is not enough from the photos to justify at your age.
