I'm 40 years old and looking for the best technique to lift my lower face. I have had fillers, thread lifts and Morpheus8 in the past.
Answer: Recommend doing non-invasive treatments to help rejuvenate the face for a lifted and younger look. Fractional laser is an amazing and highly effective treatment in our office. We use the laser treatment to help with acne scars, large pores, fine wrinkles, tissue collagen loss, scars, sebaceous hyperplasia, active acne, and for brightening dark pigmentation. Although there are very strong fractional lasers such as CO2 laser, we use lighter treatments for corrective skincare and maintenance of results. Our Thulium fractional laser, clear and brilliant laser, and Ultra Thulium laser are excellent options in our clinic. We also perform CO2 fractional and erbium depending on skin tone and tolerance for downtime. Patients do have to use a Melarase cream before and after treatment to help further reduce pigmentation after laser. Melarase AM, Melarase PM, and Melapads can seriously improve surface sun damage and UV related pigmentation. Dark spots can improve with these treatments. I recommend fractional laser for incisional scars as well, especially after plastic surgery. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Answer: You seem to be a good candidate for a lower facelift procedure. You seem to be a good candidate for a lower facelift procedure. This surgery is highly effective for addressing sagging and loosening of the skin, particularly around the jawline, cheeks, and neck. However, it's not possible to make a definitive assessment based solely on photos. Each individual’s skin type, elasticity, and degree of sagging vary, so a physical examination is essential to make an accurate decision. During an in-person consultation, I can evaluate your facial structure and the extent of sagging, allowing me to determine the most appropriate treatment plan for you.

Answer: Your Non-Surgical Treatments Have Paid Off! My looking at your photo, you have great skin and barely any skin laxity so I would personally wait until you are showing more prominent jowls or nasolabial folds. However, if you're looking for a Mini Facelift for preventative purposes you may be a suitable candidate, and essentially a Mini Facelift does not mean you'll get half the result of a 'full' Facelift, but rather focuses on minimal scarring and recovery.

Answer: Lip lift Yes, it is possible to do a mini face lift. However, your photograph is very limited. Another thing to consider that is less invasive is a lip lift. A lip lift does 4 things: shortens the distance between your nose and upper lip, increases the mucosa of the upper lip, increases the incisor show and pulls up the corners. This takes about 1 hour to perform under local anesthesia and costs $3,000. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.
