37 year old female trying to achieve a more youthful and smooth appearance of face especially lower face. What procedures would you recommend?
Answer: Lower face... Since you are young and your jawline is not heavy yet, I would start with fillers. Properly placed fillers can really help the folds around the nose and mouth and improve hollowing in the cheeks too. Then, as you discuss things with your doctor, you can always discuss other things that may be good for you down the line. Be sure to go to an expert injector for consultation.

Answer: Face At your age, I would recommend micro-needling with radiofrequency, like Secret, with the addition of Sculptra, done monthly for 3 sessions. You can continue to have a yearly boost to combat aging.

Answer: Mini Lift A mini facelift can lift the cheeks, reducing nasolabial folds and perioral lines. Using a short scar technique can be done with scars that are hardly noticeable.

Answer: Rejuvenation of lower face and neck. Thank you for your photos. You appear to have good mid facial width, and youthful volume retention in your face. It appears that you have the very beginning of some contour irregularities along your jawline and in your lower face. A mini facelift with plication of the SMAS layer would help straighten and smooth your jawline as well as your cheek and neck. This can be done under local anesthesia with some sedation to help defer the cost and the recovery is quick. Have a detailed discussion with your plastic surgeon about the best option for you.

Answer: Lip lift, rhinoplasty and chin implant I recommend 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 1 hour to perform under local anesthesia and costs $4,000. You would also benefit from a rhinoplasty to refine the tip of the nose. This would take 2 hour to perform under general anesthesia and costs $8,000. You would also benefit from a chin implant. This is done through an intra-oral approach under general anesthesia and costs $4,000. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.
