Would I benefit from a mini facelift? Late 30's and noticing jowls and loose skin on my neck (photos)

FaceTite can internally tighten the skin in the lower face and neck. After all the skin has been heated and contracted, we shape the neck with liposuction to give definition and remove stubborn pockets of fat. In one quick treatment, we can tighten skin, remove fat, and contour the lower face, jawline, and jowls with only a weekend of downtime.​ Keep in mind that combination approaches will give you a more significant improvement as opposed to a single procedure. I recommend getting a consultation with a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for your question and sharing your photographs.

If you would like to understand wide and short scar the plane facelift could offer, I suggest that you examine your facial features when you lie down completely flat without a pillow versus sitting up or leaning forward.

The appearance of the face lying down has a lot of similarities to what deep plane facelift can do. For this reason, I tend to think of the facelift intervention as a stabiliser of the facial soft tissues rather than a lift because there is a reference shape that we can aspire to achieve. The appearance of the face lying down is never pulled or windswept and generally represents a good surgical target.
