Don't like the creases on my-lips Also would like my lips fuller they have shrunken my eyelids are baggy and I got fat pockets under my eyes
Answer: Surgical vs Non Surgical Facial Rejuvenation...HOW to decide?? Ask Dr Ellen Hi there,Specific treatment with fillers will add volume to your lips and some modest contour to your face. Most of your facial lines are the result of gravity, not animation, so the value of Botox as a solution to reduce your type of lines is not great.Non surgical facial rejuvenation seems to have the best results in individuals who have early signs of facial aging. In my experience, once the lower face and neck show drooping, the fillers and neurotoxins become less successful and require multiple repeat treatment.With that said, I think your best bang for the buck would be to consider a surgical plan that would restore a youthful shape to your face/neck and lift your eyelids/ debulk the fatty tissue.Thanks for asking! Dr Ellen

Answer: Fillers and Botox Are for Early Signs of Aging In my opinion, fillers and Botox wouldn't make enough of a difference to feel satisfying to you. A facelift with fat grafting will give you a much more dramatic rejuvenation -- turning the clock back by about 10 years. From your photo, you would also benefit from blepharoplasty to remove the fat pads and excess skin around your eyes, and from a browlift. Laser resurfacing of the skin would not only even out the tone and texture but stimulate the production of new collagen. A facelift will last about 10 years. Fillers and Botox must be re-administered every few months to a year. I hope this helps

Answer: Surgical Facial Rejuvenation Thanks for your question. As you can imagine there is not a lot you can't have done these days. A facelift should address the concerns you have so can be varied to suit. If your skin is loose, sagging or creating the appearance of jowls you may be a good candidate for Concept™ Facelift Surgery. This type of Rhytidectomy is unique as the facelift is performed under local anaesthetic, and is less invasive than traditional methods, meaning the cosmetic surgery has a significantly faster recovery time. The cosmetic procedure is similar to a mini facelift as it is performed with a short scar that runs in front of the ear, down to the ear lobe and tucked behind the ear. There will be no dressings or drains afterwards. This is performed as a day case, walk in-walk out procedure with minimal bruising and downtime. This procedure if often combined with eyelid surgery which again can be performed under local anaesthetic, only taking approximately 1.5 hours. Please find a reputable and qualified surgeon who can assess you properly to give you a realistic idea of what outcome you can achieve. All The Best

Answer: A surgical facelift is a better option for you A facelift will give you a more dramatic result, longer lasting result. Although initially more expensive than botox and fillers, over time you actually save money. In fact you would likely spend just as much on non-surgical treatments in less than 3 years than what it would cost you to get a facelift surgery. A facelift when well done can keep you looking great for good 10-15 years. The math is simple.

Answer: Fillers/botox v facelift facelift + upper/lower bleph + endo brow + finesse fat transfer. That would be my recommendation. The laxity and descent in your face would swallow up hundred to thousands of dollars of fillers and botox without making you look much younger but also with the hazard of making your face look strange. Once a person gets into the late forties to early fifties the knife usually beats the needle in terms of return on investment.

Answer: Should I get a facelift or should I get fillers and Botox like to look younger? Eyelid surgery with a facelift would be appropriate. Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of facelifts, necklifts, facelift revisions, and facial procedures each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results. Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA
