Do I need lower facelift or can be corrected with kybella or cool sculpting? (photo)

Thanks for your post. I would suggest starting with Smartlipo of the chin/neck. This is a safe, short, in-office procedure that has minimal discomfort and downtime. The results slowly become more visible between 6 and 12 weeks. By then, most people have a very nice improvement in their contour. You have some early jowl formation, but I think I'd put off facelifting surgery in your case for another few years. Best wishes.

I agree with most of the other surgeons here. While a less invasive technology such as Coolsculpting or Kybella is appealing, you may be disappointed with the result. They can address the fatty tissue to an extent, but don't always deal with the excess skin adequately.

During your #consultation, your skin texture and elasticity, as well as your underlying skin structure and your facial bone structure will be evaluated. Based on this evaluation, your board certified plastic surgeons will create a custom surgical plan, detailing specific techniques and recommendations to meet your goals. In doing so, he or she should be sure to have a full understanding of what results you expect. It is possible to #combine #surgeries. In fact, I commonly recommend other procedures to go accompany a facelift, such as blepharoplasty or a midface (cheek) lift, to name a few. The combination of multiple of facial procedures may create an optimal result. The best procedure approach will be discussed in greater detail during your one-on-one #consultation. I invite you to visit PacificCenterPlasticSurgery.com to view a complete list of surgeries commonly performed. If you are not a #candidate, your surgeon can make other suggestions to address your concerns and objectives. It is extremely important to seek a board certified plastic surgeon highly trained with your desired procedures. I also encourage you to look at before and after photos of the surgeons actual patients. Also, reading patient reviews of those who have had combined surgeries will be beneficial. Gathering all of this information will help you make a well-informed decision.
