I would like to just get lipo on my jowls to reduce the appearance of the sagging. Is this possible? I would like the least invasive possibility that will give me results.

Answer: Facelift for jowls In our practice, we do not recommend liposuction of the jowls, since there will be significant irregularities present in the jowls afterwards. The jowls must be lifted with a facelift procedure to restore volume from where they fell down from. A facelift with a SMAS lift will accomplish the goals of facial rejuvenation. For many examples, please see the video and the link below

Answer: Liposuction of the jowls can be effective for some patients In people with good skin elasticity and no significant muscle looseness, liposuction alone can be a good option.In your case, I would not be comfortable offering liposuction alone, as I believe it would result in inadequate results due to increased skin looseness, and untreated looseness of the deeper tissues.Instead, I would proceed with a mini facelift, which would treat the jowl fullness as well as the skin and muscle looseness.
