Answer: Lower face and neck lift with Full face fat transfer Given the excess skin on your neck, I would recommend a lower face and neck lift. Any non-surgical treatment, such as PDO threads, would not provide you with optimal long-lasting results. Notably, the PDO threads would be able to lift the midface area to lessen the appearance of the nasolabial folds and saggy jowls but would not provide a noticeable or significant lift to the neck area. A lower face and neck lift would address the sagging around your neck and jowls and soften the appearance of your nasolabial folds. The best part is that you will be able to enjoy this refreshed look for many years to come as results typically last 8-10 years. Additionally, I believe that a facial fat transfer will also provide an overall refreshed look as it would restore volume to areas that are currently hollow within the face. Going forward, I would recommend you to complete multiple in-office consultations with a board-certified plastic surgeons to discuss your ideal outcome. This way, they can assess your goals in person and determine the best treatment for you. Best of luck! Kian Karimi MD, FACS

Answer: Mini facelift vs. Lower face and neck lift... Based on the photos, a lower face and neck lift would work better for you. A mini facelift can improve the jowling and jawline nicely, but it's not great for the neck. Doing the neck at the same time will give you a better result overall. Be sure to see a facial specialist for consultation

Answer: Facelift Hello, Based on the photographs and the neck and lower face descent that you are exhibiting at this point, I would recommend a facelift rather than a mini facelift as the mini-lift generally targets the jowls mainly and provides minor improvement in the neck. If the neck isn't a significant concern for you, I think that you could consider a mini lift. Good luck!!
