Facelift for Young Adult (Age 21), Too Young?

A facelift in 21 year old is not controversial, it is just plain wrong. Most 21 year old people do not have excessive skin laxity. Rather the issue is excessive fat in the cheeks or under the jawline, a weak chin or some other aspect of the facial skeleton or hypertrophy of the masseter muscle. I would recommend that you seek a consultation with an experienced Facial Plastic Surgeon. They will be able to evaluate your concerns. It is highly likely that you will be able to achieve improvement without resorting to a facelift procedure. If someone recommends a facelift for you at 21 years old, I would be dubious of the reasons why they are offering that treatment to you. I hope this information is helpful.

Thank you for your question! I am sure you  don't need a facelift, as you can't have loose skin at your age. Please, don't forget that this is a surgery, supposed to deal  with severe signs of aging. I think the good idea for you may be liposuction of  your neck and jawline. After the fat will go and your skin shrink, you can have perfect result. As you are very young and have good elasticity of the skin, your skin is sure to shrink well.My best advise is to choose an honest and trustworthy doctor. He will take an overall approach, judging the balance and proportions of your face with regards to your age and the outcome you seek.I wish you the best of luck!

In my professional opinion, 21 years old is far too
young to be considering a facelift surgery. Such a procedure is reserved for
patients who exhibit severe signs of aging, and who will benefit from
tightening loose, elastic skin. In your case, injectable fillers would probably
be the best option. If this solution doesn’t fulfill your expectations, you can then
progress to more intensive treatments like a fat transfer to add volume to
areas of your face that are hollowed.
