Alternative Options to Facelift for Patient with Heart Condition?

You would be surprised how much younger you would look after a treatment with Injectable Fillers. Areas that you could easily improve include: your deep frown line, lower eyelid grooves, deep nasolabial folds, lips, and downturned corners of your mouth. Adding volume to these areas would not replace the benefits of lifting sagging skin, but could offer you a non-surgical option to improve your appearance. There is typically no downtime, and your results are visible immediately. Procedures are performed in the office with topical anesthetic.
I hope this is helpful for you.

It depends on what kind of "heart condition" you have. Often we do patients that  are cleared by their cardiologist for minilifts or more. If the cardiologist  does not give you clearance for general or local anesthesia, your options are fillers and botox and peels. 

Your eye anatomy is difficult to treat without surgery.
However, you can achieve some improvement with the use of fillers, botulinum toxin (i.e., Dysport), chemical peels, laser resurfacing, radiofrequency or IPL treatments. It would be best for you to meet with a professional to discuss these options. IF you are on blood thinners (including aspirin) you run the risk of bleeding. You should discuss the possibility of having to discontinue these medications with your cardiologist prior to treatment.

Prior to pursuing any cosmetic plastic surgery, consult with your cardiologist as whether you are physically healthy enough.
If so, request your cardiology records and a letter of clearance from your cardiologist be mailed to your facial plastic surgeon. This is to protect the patient from any cardiac events or complications during the surgery.
If you are not cleared for plastic surgery, there are non-surgical options that may help, though not nearly as effect as surgery. Non-surgical options include botox, dermal fillers, peels and lasers. Consult with a cosmetic dermatologist for more information.

I have operated on many people with minor heart problems as well as people who have had angioplasties, stents and even cardiac bypass surgery. However, these people have all been relatively healthy at the time of my surgery and they have all been cleared by their physicians (usually cardiologists).
In general, the biggest potential problem with facelift surgery is not the surgery but the anesthesia. Facelift surgery can be performed with local anesthesia as well. A mini lift type procedure with local anesthesia may work well in your case. The use of tumescent local anesthesia employs very little lidocaine and only a scant amount of epinephrine.
If surgical procedures are truly contraindicated in your case because of a severe heart problem, consideration can be given for the use of filler injections for creases and depressions, BOTOX® for forehead furrows and crows feet, non-invasive (or minimally invasive) laser, peel or other resurfacing type procedures for improving the quality of the surface of your skin.
