I am devastated.... For the last 2 years my face has been quickly going south which has put me in a deep depression. My once beautiful face is falling apart and I need help and answers. I am petrified of plastic surgery but I will do what it takes. I am really hoping I can fix it with fillers for now to hold me off for a few years. I lost about 10 pounds 2 years ago and was in awesome shape but I have let myself go the last 2 years and it seems like the weight is going straight to my jowls!

Answer: 39 year old female with loose neck. What's best option? I think that a necklift with chin augmentation would provide a good improvement of your neck and chin, without having to go through a facelift.

Answer: Facelift at 39? From the limited views on your pictures, I would say that filler will not be the answer to rejuvenation for you. Your aesthetic issues deal more with skin laxity, than they do volume loss, therefore fillers or laser treatments will not provide you with the answer. I would first suggest a "Mini Facelift". This procedure would help to address the laxity of the skin in your neck area, and also correct the jowls along your jawline. This procedure would provide you with a much tighter neck and jawline. I would also suggest a chin implant. This would help to strengthen your profile and also give the appearance of a more sculpted neckline. I understand your concerns with surgery, but these procedures are safe when performed in the hand of a board certified facial plastic surgeon. I suggest you schedule an consultation where a more accurate examination of your face can be performed, and an individualized plan for reaching your aesthetic goals can be addressed. Good Luck!

Answer: Facelift vs Filler In reviewing your photos, it appears there is some fullness and laxity in the submental and lateral cheek area. I do not believe fillers will give you any improvement in these areas. Even though you may feel you are young to consider facial rejuvenation surgery, it will give you the desired effect. Patients often ask what is the best time. My answer is always " when you are ready to rid yourself of the problem that concerns you most". I would recommend a surgeon who can show you pictures of patients who have similar problems and then the post ops. This will confirm your desire to move forward.
