I'm 45 and have been doing botox, fillers (jawline/around mouth etc) I have done Ultherapy and threading with very minimal results. I am now considering a lower facelift to address sagging jowls and neck. I've also started to notice eyelids are sagging and dark circles under my eyes. What would the best option be to address eyes? Should I do both procedures at the same time? If so, what is the downtime associated with doing both.
Answer: The lower face/neck lift with skin resurfacing is just what the doc ordered. From the photos, the Advanced MiniLift under local would give such great results and is so easy to undergo. It fixes the jawline and neck quick and safely. Never go under general if you can help it. Cost is on special currently for just $15,000 and is so worth it. Also you need the skin resurfaced on the face, neck and probably chest which is easy to undergo at the same time as the minilift since everything is numbed up nicely. Morpheus and TCA peel together would do the trick for an additional $5000. Then everything would look rejuvenated and great.

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: Lower facelift Thank you for the question. The decision to have a facelift is really dependent on when you feel ready. At this point, I would recommend avoiding further threadlifts and/or Ultherapy, which introduce deeper scar tissue, often without much aesthetic gain. I perform a deep plane facelift, which allows for a very natural, but significant result. At 48, your skin integrity and elasticity allows for a stunning result. Whether or not to address your upper or lower eyelids would be dependent on an in person consultation.

Answer: Multiple procedures at the same time The quick answer is yes, you can definitely have multiple procedures performed at the same time. If you are a candidate for blepharoplasty, at the same time as a facelift, then yes, you can do this. I perform about 90% of facelifts with other procedures, which include, the eyelids, neck, fat transfers and laser skin resurfacing. The recovery is generally the same, initial recovery is about 10-14 days. In order to determine the best options, a consultation would be best.

Answer: How to refresh the eyes and the lower face at the same time Hello, and thank you for providing photos along with your question. While an assessment of your skin is necessary to determine the best procedure or combination of procedures, there are several ways to rejuvenate the eye area. One is through a dermal filler treatment. By injecting small amounts of filler around the tear trough, the skin will become plump and supple, lifting the skin and smoothing out the visible groove in the skin. There is also facial fat transfer to restore volume under your eyes. For a more comprehensive approach, you may have a lower blepharoplasty which will create a smoother transition from the lower eyelid to the cheek by addressing loose or wrinkled skin of the lower eyelid and excess puffiness or bags under the eyes. And yes, you can combine a facelift with blepharoplasty. In fact, combining multiple facial rejuvenation procedures can be an effective way to address all your concerns at the same time. Blepharoplasty and a facelift are commonly performed together to produce comprehensive results. The best way to determine your eligibility for the procedures is to schedule an in-person consultation with a reputable board-certified facial plastic surgeon. Your surgeon can do a proper evaluation, customize the best treatment plan according to your desired goals, and ensure the best possible results.
