64 years old. What procedures would benefit me most? I’ve had 3 consults. One said upper and lower bleph, face/neck/lip lift, fat transfer and co2. Two others said no bleph or lip. Instead face/brow lift snd c02.
Answer: Facelift A facelift (which includes a neck lift as well) will be your best option. Once the main structure has been repositioned to a younger look then you can start working on skin with lasers, fillers, botox etc. The first step should be a facelift. Regards Dr. J

Answer: Most beneficial surgery Honestly, the procedure that would benefit you most depends on what upsets you about your face! Plastic surgery is not a need, but a want -- and only you can decide what do! To be the most helpful, I would first like to tell you what *not* to do. I would certainly say that if you got a brow lift, it would be a surefire way to look unnatural and older, as your brows are already high, as is your forehead. So please avoid that. Lip lifts never look natural, and I would avoid that as well. It would be hard, based on the photos, to make an educated recommendation about your under-eye area, so I wouldn’t know how to comment on a lower bleph without an in-person consultation. I see a bit more overhang of your upper right eyelid, so possibly an upper bleph but again, I’d need to see the anatomy in person to be sure. It does appear that a midface lift, and a neck lift, would be beneficial, and perhaps a subtle bit of volume in your lips. I would definitely advise you to seek more opinions, and to spend time prioritizing what matters to *you.*

Answer: Procedures that Would Make You Happy The answer to these questions really depends on what concerns you and what degree of rejuvenation you wish to have. Although I generally agree with all of the procedures mentioned (with the exception of fat transfer) as being aesthetically indicated, Only a consultation would determine if they are appropriate for you. I perform a deep plane facelift procedure which is self volumizing, repositioning facial soft tissues, obviating volumization is most cases.

Answer: Options for 64 yo with Facial Aging Changes Based on my review of your photos, I think a standard face/necklift would correct your loose sagging neck and lower jowl bulges, creating a smoother jaw and neckline. This might also raise the fat in the lower cheek up into the mid cheek, filling in some of your cheek hollows. Otherwise the purpose of fat grafting is too add volume to the mid cheek if you desire. Since your brows seem high enough, I suggest the upper lid bleph to smooth and open up the upper lids. Honestly, I can't appreciate enough from your photos to offer insight into your lower lids. The co2 laser treatment is meant to improve your skin texture and complexion. Try to prioritize what areas you notice most and seem more of a problem to you. Discuss correction of those areas with your surgeon.
