Is it too soon for a facelift?

February 5, 2016
Asked By:Mtnclimberb in Largo, FL

I am 29 years old with children and a high stress job which I am assuming has added to the aging I have noticed lately in my face. My eyes look tired and have extra skin that feels heavy, and my mouth pulls downwards. Is it too soon to consider a facelift? What are my options at this point?
