How long do the effects of a mini lift last? 59 y/o concerned about worsening jowls (photo)

February 7, 2023
Asked By:heckette in Lexington, Massachusetts

Hello! I am a 59 yr old woman with worsening jowls. Last year I had Accutite/morpheus with absolutely no improvement (staff concurred). I have scheduled a mini facelift but was astonished to hear from the surgeon that the effects are unlikely to last beyond 2 yrs ("maybe three"). Everything I have read here indicates a longer duration of 5-10 years. Can I please have some feedback about what is a reasonable expectation?
