Have had a neck lift 3 years ago - and am now seeing the ever slight looseness on my jowl line. Would like to avoid a face lift, but am wary about the thread lifts - anything else out there??

Answer: Neck Skin Sagging / Platysmaplasty -- neck lift/Facelift, Lasers, Microneedling RF, Fillers, Renuvion, ThermiRF, FaceTite With significant neck sagging you would need a neck lift / facelift with muscle tightening (platysmaplasty). At the same time, lasers treatments (Fraxel, CO2, Erbium) or microneedling RF (Fractora, Intensif) can be performed to improve crepey skin or wrinkles. You need a formal consultation, as the neck can be treated with a combination approach: - Microneedling and laser treatments for texture - Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, or Jeuveau to help the Platysmal bands - Intensif or Fractora RF microneedling for crepey skin and lifting - Injectable fillers like Belotero, Restylane Silk, and/or Juvederm Volbella to improve lines and folds - Renuvion, ThermiRF, and/or InMode FaceTite for internal tightening - Ultherapy and Thermage for external tightening - regular Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra, or InMode Forma treatments with facials to maintain tightness - PDO NovaThreads or Silhouette InstaLift cone threads for lifting and long-term collagen production See an expert for a full evaluation and treatment plan based on your individual situation and goals.

Answer: Options for correcting loose jowls There are many options for improving laxity in the jowls, both surgical and non-surgical - which is best depends on the degree of fat present, the quality of your skin and the degree of skin laxity.If you have minimal excess fat and are relatively young and have good skin quality then liposuction will give a good result, especially if combined with a skin-tightening laser. For early skin laxity then there are a number of skin-tightening lasers such as Thermage, SkinTyte and Ultraformer III that improve skin laxity with minimal or no down-time. These however need to be continued for ongoing improvement. For more advanced skin laxity then surgery - a lower facelift is the best option, giving you a long-lasting result

Answer: Minilift is a great option for jowls A minilift is surgical procedure that can be performed under local anesthesia. an incision is made in front of the ear and down to the earlobe, skin is lifted, muscles tightened and the excess skin removed. This is a very nice procedure to improve jowls, with little down time. Sutures are out in a week and you can return to normal activities in about 5 days.Machines all work a little bit to tighten the skin, but the gold standard is surgery. Once you consider the expense of using machines, you will see that a minilift is the best option both clinically and financially.And finally, a word on threadlifts: DON'T!!!
