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

There are two reasons to have a cheeklift or midface lift.
The most common is facial aging with drooping of the midfacial tissues.
The other is to restructure the face. This is needed in some young patients whose volume sits very low on their face and has nothing to do with aging. Usually this type of syurgery is accompanied by a deliberate change in very sad appearing eyes, or eyes that bulge excessively, etc.
It is an unusual procedure and of course pictures are worth a 1000 words...
Be very careful before undergoing any cosmetic surgery, especially surgery that is controversial.

A good plastic surgeon’s goal is to deliver natural-looking results by enhancing and improving upon what one naturally has, using the technique that is the safest and easiest. If surgery is the best technique to obtain a patient’s goal, then it will be used. But often times with younger people, there are non-surgical, non-invasive options that are easier and will do a better job at preserving and enhancing one’s natural beauty. Unnecessarily doing surgery on someone young can create unnatural results, which may lead to more surgeries/revisions. That being said, a recent study noted longer lasting result in early middle age vs late middle age/elderly.

Hi there-
It would be difficult to answer your question without an examination, but generally speaking it sounds like you would benefit more from a procedure designed to improve the volume and shape of the face.
Seek a surgeon certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery and visit for a consultation.
