is it worth it to do the lower facelift in my early 40s if I'm definitely going to need it again in 10 years? it's Not very bad yet but still bothers me
Answer: Good candidate You are a good candidate for either a lower facelift or necklift! Everyone ages differently so it's hard to pinpoint the "right age" for these procedures but early 40s is not too soon if the appearance is bothering you enough. It's very common. Based on your photos, you could benefit from tightening of the bands, repositioning the tissues and trimming away the excess skin. This would take years off of your appearance but does not stop you from aging, so it's difficult to say at what point you may desire another procedure. Hope this helps!

Answer: Looking at your photos, you seem to be a good candidate for a lower facelift surgery. Looking at your photos, you seem to be a good candidate for a lower facelift surgery. You seem to have prominent jowls on the lower face, which can be addressed through a lower facelift surgery. Additionally, there is some looseness in the neck area, which will be solved in the lower facelift approach. My youngest patient for facelift was 32 years old, I always evaluate my patients according to their current situation and their expectations, rather than age.

Answer: Facelift worth it now? This is a tough question because you are so young. However, there is never a perfect time for a face/neck lift procedure. It depends highly on each individual's concerns and health status. I think you would definitely benefit from a mini lift including the neck skin. You are right that you may need another lift in the future, likely 10-15 years down the road. If it bothers you enough then go for it!

Answer: Lower facelift of neck lift Thank you for your inquiry and sharing your photographs. A neck lift procedure can address a lot of the concerns that you are describing along the jawline and the neck contours. A facelift intervention for the lower face only is also potentially valuable, but to address the laxity under the chin, an extension of the scar in front of the temporal hairline may be of benefit. This could also increase the longevity of the result. To increase the longevity of facelift and neck lift surgery, regular use of sunblock is very important. It protects against the damage from ultraviolet radiation that affects the elastic collagen fibers in the skin, which as adults we do not replenish.

Answer: Is it worth it to do the lower facelift in my early 40s? In person exam is essential. Based on limited photos it appears that you would benefit from lower facelift/ neck lift with muscle tightening. I suggest that you seek an experienced Board Certified PS
