Hello, I am unhappy with the decent of my lower cheeks and jowls, and lack of definition in my jawline. **Please note that I have already done non invasive procedures such as Thermi-Tight to my lower face along with a chin implant and neck liposuction.** While I was pleased with the improvements of those procedures I am now wanting a more significant longer lasting improvement. Is a mini lower facelift a good option for me at this point? Thank you kindly for any advice.
Answer: Mini facelift You would be a candidate for deep neck contouring. This involves a small incision under the chin to remove the fat pad under the muscle (liposuction does not address this fat nor does weight loss), the digastric muscles which bulge with aging, the submandibular salivary glands which can also descend in the neck with aging, and to tighten the superficial muscle of the neck. This will create definition in the neck. To address the jowls, a facelift is the surgery of choice. However, the jowls at this point are not prominent, and it would be appropriate to start with the deep neck contouring.

Answer: Mini facelift The aspects of a mini facelift are different depending on the provider. It is recommended you have an in person consultation with your desired surgeon to discuss which options are best for you to provide the desired results as well as understanding the limitations inherent to the surgery.

Answer: Mini Facelift & Mini neck lift -- FaceTite RF for internal skin tightening + Neck Liposuction for definition/contouring FaceTite can internally tighten the skin in the lower face and neck. After all the skin has been heated and contracted, we shape the neck with liposuction to give definition and remove stubborn pockets of fat. In one quick treatment, we can tighten skin, remove fat, and contour the lower face, jawline, and jowls with only a weekend of downtime. Keep in mind that combination approaches will give you a more significant improvement as opposed to a single procedure. I recommend getting a consultation with a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: 40 year old woman, is a mini facelift an option for me at this point? Based on the photos, I would suggest fat grafting to your central and lateral cheeks to add volume to your central face. I would combine this with liposuction of the lower and medial cheek and buccal fat removal to decrease the volume of the cheek lateral to the corners of the mouth. This would reverse the current disproportions of your cheeks. I am happy to discuss this in more detail in person. 913 663-3838 We have a north and a south office. Good luck!
