I have sagging jowls on one side of my face. It seems as if this happened over the last year. I am 34. What are my best options to get rid of this? It makes me so self conscious. I could lose around 10 pounds, but not sure if doing so would help. Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Answer: One sided jowling Thank you for your question. At your age, you should consider less invasive options. A temporary option is to hide the jowling with some filler along the jawline. Patients tend to find this unsatisfying in the end and seek more permanent options. I am usually not a fan of liposuction in the face (except in the neck, where it works well), but a microliposuction of the jawline under local anesthesia would be a quick and effective solution for you with minimal downtime.

Answer: Sagging jowls? Mini-facelift candidate You do not yet have enough sagging to justify a facelift. Concentrate on preventing sun damage by protecting your skin with sunscreen, hats and clothing. Have your dermatologist recommend a medical-grade skin care regimen with retinol and hyaluronic acid. Get regular chemical peels. If you do start to see some jowling, a mini lift, with or without a neck lift would give improvement. I hope this helps.

Answer: Options for sagging jowls You appear to be in the very early stages of aging with volume loss in your mid face. I would recommend the volume enhancement using a number of techniques ranging from fat to synthetic fillers.
