I’m a 47 year old athletic female. I’d sincerely appreciate recommendations on the procedures required to make me look 15 years younger (is that even possible)? I’m aware of the jowls, the fallen check fat pads, loss of volume in my lips, sun damage, under eye bags. Please advise of other issues that age me and how best to address them all. Thank you so much for your time.

Answer: Surgery & Co2 laser Vs Sculptra & CO2 laser Thank you for the question and for attaching the photos. I trust you have two different options.The first one will be a combination of surgery and Co2 laser, which will include lower face and upper neck lift for tightening the loose skin and lifting the jowls and removing the fat deposits in the neck along with a platysma-plasty. As for the under eye bags they can be treated with blepharoplasty, which involves removal of the fat bags through an incision on the inside of the eyelids. A few months later you after the surgery, you could benefit from CO2 laser for the sun damage spots and the pigmentation on the skin.The Second (non-surgical option) will involve having a course of Sculptra treatment (3-4 sessions ) over 3- 4 months to address the fallen check fat pads and the loss of volume in the face. A Silhouette Soft thread treatment to lift the jawlines and you could benefit from CO2 laser for the sun damage spots and the pigmentation on the skin. The under eyes could be helped with 2-3 sessions of a special dermal filler and Co2 laser treatment. The results form option one will last for many years, while in the non-surgical option the results will last for 3-4 years only. Best regardsDr Ayham Al-AyoubiFacial plastic and laser surgeon, London
