I’m 53 and have lost a lot of fat in my face. I want to do anything that will make me look more youthful. I prefer solutions that last longer than a year or two. I’m 5’5” and 125lbs. Thank you.
Answer: Facial Rejuvenation Hello, hope you are well! Thank you for posting your photos in information. There are many options available to you. The foundation of a facial rejuvenation plan would be a face and neck lift. In addition, it would be worthwhile to consider brow lift, lip lift, fat grafting and/or cheek augmentation and upper blepharoplasty. Deciding whether to include these options in the surgical plan depends on your goals and expectations. To really understand the nuances of each procedure takes an in-person consultation (expectations of results, potential risks, scars, recovery, etc). Cheers, Dr. Tower

Answer: Physical examination is essential to tailor the treatment plan specifically to your anatomy and aesthetic goals. Based on your description and goals, the most effective way to achieve a longer-lasting, natural-looking youthful appearance would be a combination of a deep plane facelift and a neck lift. These procedures address not only the skin but also the deeper underlying tissues, helping to restore lost volume, tighten sagging areas, and redefine your jawline and neck contours for a rejuvenated look that typically lasts many years. since you have experienced significant facial fat loss, fat grafting (fat injections) can be performed during the surgery to restore volume to hollow or sunken areas, enhancing facial fullness and softness in a natural way. For the eye area, if you have concerns about eyelid drooping or puffiness, blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) is an excellent option to remove excess skin and fat, opening up the eyes and complementing the overall facial rejuvenation. Given your height and weight, you are a good candidate for these procedures, but a thorough physical examination is essential to tailor the treatment plan specifically to your anatomy and aesthetic goals.

Answer: Facelift I would recommend facelift with fat grafting to the upper cheeks. This would be a long lasting procedure that would still look natural.

Answer: Deep plane facelift and neck lift Thank you for your question and for sharing your photographs. There is moderate laxity along the jawline and visibility of the labiomandibular lines, which affects the shape of the face in general and contributes to a more aged appearance. The contour under the chin shows relatively strong visibility of the submandibular glands and digastric muscles, along with a moderate amount of skin laxity. Overall, it seems that the best approach to address all these aspects for a more defined contour of the jawline, a more visible V-shaped contour of the lower face, and increased neck definition would be a combination of a deep plane facelift and a deep plane neck lift.

Answer: Face rejuvenation Hello mlwatson1971. To rejuvenate your face, the best procedure would be a mid face and neck lift, upper blepharoplasty and fat transfer to the face. With these procedures we resposition the muscle layer of mid face and neck and readjust the excess skin. And we need to replenish the volume loss of the face with a fat transfer to the cheek bone, the nasolabial crease, the crease on the corner of the mouth and in the inferior eyelids. The combination of these procedures will have a great improvement and rejuvenation on your face and is the most long lasting treatment. Let me know if you woluld like more information. Thanks Dr. Medina
