Dents, lateral sweep and draping skin after facelift. Will Botox help? (Photo)

Question

I am about 7 months out. I do look better than the pics now. Dr had mentioned botox as a solution. I have dents, lateral sweep and draping skin on the sides of my mouth. Thoughts? I really don't want to deal with the maintenance

Anna Avaliani, MD · Answer

Thank you for your photos. My answer is solely on the fact that you said you don't wan to deal with maintenance .Everything requires maintenance. Surgical results are maintained by non surgical procedures. If you desire less maintenance, then you can consider a revision surgery to redo the side where the sweep is present. 
On the other hand, Botox, Sculptra and RF microneedling would tighten the skin and even out any dents.Best,Dr.Anna Avaliani

Revising the face/neck lift under local with a little iv sedation for complete comfort is the only thing that can tweek the results to the way you want it to  be.  That is why doing it under local allows you to  sit  up during the procedure occasionally to fine tune the results so later tweeking isn't necessary. cost is roughly $15-20,000 and so worth it to get  it right.

As I previously answered, only revision surgery can improve the results you have. Best to virtual consult with so a discussion can issue after seeing you in action live. Expect fees to range from $15-$25,000.
