I have a thin face, if I tighten my jawline with a lower lift will this make my face even thinner? I want a tight jawline yet I don't want my face to look too thin, what are my options?

Answer: Does facelift makes face thinner? Thank you for your question. People are often concerned that a facelift would excessively change their looks and in some way would even make their face less attractive. This concern was certainly justified with some older facelift techniques that relied primarily on tightening of the skin. However, modern day facelifts are performed in a way that preserve the natural facial appearance. Instead of "tightening" the jawline (this could certainly make the face look thinner), modern facelift would restore your natural jawline contour. Find a plastic surgeon in your area that specializes in facelifts. The doctor should be able to offer you rejuvenation procedure that would make you look your best.Best wishes!Dr. Konstantin

Answer: I have a thin face, if I tighten my jawline with a lower lift will this make my face even thinner? Thank you for posting your interesting question. A properly performed facelift is designed to tighten the jawline and get rid of jowling. In fact, a lower facelift is a very effective solution. Only, the excess skin should be removed not additional volume. Most of the aging of the face is due to bone loss and most facelifts today have added volume with fat grafting and Sculptra aesthetics's to restore the lost volume, not make the face look puffy. I recommend that you have a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who is experienced with Face and Neck lifts. At the time your consultation, you will be examined, discuss your optimal surgical option and see dozens of the plastic surgeon's before and after facelift results.
