My Face Sags Considerably when I Bend Over, Look Down, or I'm Supine: Will a Neck/facelift Help?

uphill
I'm a mid-40s man, aiming to get fat grafts to my hollowed tear troughs, and temples. I have good strong features. That will have a dramatic effect on my very lean face, I know, but I want to keep my naturally lean appearance.No overfill. And although I don't appear as great candidate for a neck/midface lift, when I bend over, look down, or am supine, my face really sags a lot. It bothers me a lot, too. I want to correct this without a windswept look, or scars that go into my hair. Can it be done?
