As you could notice after the buccal fat pad removal, there has been no effect visible on your face, results of such maneuver are like unicorns, people talk about them but never saw one. With that said, your saggines is non attributable to that previous procedure.Unfortunately mini facelifts are within the same zone of nicely sounding small procedures with no effect or even deforming ones (stretched ears, sweep deformity, bad scarring, etc).I recommend you delay a few years getting a complete deep plane cervicofacial rythidoplasty, you'll be a happy patient in the right hands.
Unlike other tightening treatments, Ultherapy only requires a single treatment every one to two years and has long-term effects in skin stimulation and collagen production. Ultherapy is ideal for men and women who are experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity and desire a noticeable and long-term skin tightening treatment without the complications and risks of more invasive surgical procedures. Ultherapy can be combined with dermal fillers, Botox treatments, chemical peels, skin tightening lasers, and skin facials. Our plastic surgery and cosmetic center in Santa Monica offers Ultherapy as a complement to other skin treatments and cosmetic rejuvenation procedures. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Based on your concerns and lack of improvement with fillers, I recommend an Endotine midface lift using temporal and upper gingivobuccal incisions. This technique lifts the mid-cheek fat pad vertically, helping reduce nasolabial folds and cheek sagging without adding volume.
Thank you for your photos. You are starting with excellent facial shape and contour with a minimum amount of jawline irregularity. The small traction that you are performing on your cheek in one of your photographs shows an improvement of your jawline, making it straighter and sharper. This...
Being 36 years old is definitely not a barrier to having both upper and lower blepharoplasty combined with a facelift (whether mini or full). Age is not the sole factor in determining candidacy for surgery; what matters more is the condition of the skin, tissue quality, and the specific...
