Will a Facelift at a Young Age Cause Complications Later On?

Corrine75
I'm almost 23 years old. My skin has very little volume. My cheeks sag and give me hollow tear troughs, flat cheeks, heavy lower face with nasolabial folds, marrionette lines and sagging skin around the mouth. I look sad and very harsh in some light. I've been to several dermatologist and they don't know why my skin is like this. It has been recommended by several Plastic surgeons to get a mid face lift. Would getting a face lift this young cause problems with getting a lift in my when I'm older? Are there any other options? Thanks!
