At 66, what would be the best treatment for lower face? I have read so many negative articles about thread lift. Fillers will not be enough; I need a lift. Do I need a lower face lift or is there an easier way to fluff this area up?

Answer: Options for 66 year old with neck and jowls Different people age differently. In general, by 66 years of age, most individuals have some component of facial inelasticity as well as midface and lower face volume loss. To get the most natural result in the end, your surgeon has to diagnose the different ways you are aging and reverse each problem individually. So, if you have excess skin and volume loss, then a facelift followed by adding volume to the face with fat, filler, or implants would be ideal.

Answer: Lower Facelift, Under Local Anaesthetic Thank you for your question.I have pioneered my Concept™ facelift which is suitable for men and women who wish to reduce sagging in the lower face (jowls) and neck and regain a more natural, rejuvenated appearance. The procedure is less invasive than a traditional facelift and there is less scarring, bruising and swelling for a significantly quicker recovery period. This innovative procedure combines the latest surgical techniques with the use of local anaesthetic to dramatically reduce the risks associated with traditional facelifts, while significantly reducing the bruising and downtime of your recovery, from months to a matter of days.The marionette lines will be smoothed by tightening the skin however without tightening the muscle unfortunately the lines will still appear. A lot of my patients will have fillers or chemical peel to reduce these lines.What are the benefits of the local anaesthetic Concept™ Facelift?Minimally invasive as it is a short scar faceliftThere is minimal bruising and swelling, especially when compared to traditional faceliftsAs the procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, you can go straight home following the procedureFull recovery in a matter of days rather than monthsSignificantly less risk than Facelifts performed under general anaestheticFresh, youthful and long lasting resultsAll The Best

Answer: At 66, most people have significant skin laxity and jowls due to gravity and slowed collagen production. At 66, most people have significant skin laxity and jowls due to gravity and slowed collagen production. While there are non-surgical options such as fillers or skin tightening lasers, these will most likely not be effective enough. Likewise, although it is impossible to say without seeing you in person, a “mini-lift” would likely not be enough either. I perform mini-lifts, which involve fewer incisions and less aggressive surgical techniques, most often on people in their 40s or 50s who are just beginning to see skin laxity or jowls. A full face and neck lift, which lifts and repositions the SMAS layer as well as re-draping the skin to recreate a more youthful and contoured appearance, would most likely be best for you. Please visit a board-certified facial plastic surgeon for a consultation to see what options you have. I hope this helps.
