Noticing some sagging of face and loss of facial definition. Would a lower facelift be an option I should look into? I use filler and Botox but would want long lasting results. Also, can a lower facelift be done under local or twilight anesthesia? Thanks in advance!

Answer: 42 years old- too young for lower facelift? Hello. Great question. Thank you for your pictures. In order to avoid a facelift, you may want to consider skin tightening. Please visit a board certified plastic surgeon for a detailed surgical plan to achieve your desired results.

Answer: Neck Sag -- Fillers Like Belotero, Silk; Fraxel or Erbium Laser; Botox/Dysport/Xeomin; Sagging needs Neck Lift, Renvion/Vaser my patients who dont want surgery will do facetite, fillers, and morpheus treatments to keep the skin tighter and slow down the process. if you have significant sagging or are looking for prevention then an early lift can be great and a lot of my younger patients 30-40s do this to get them more significant improvement. hormonal optimization will be very important for you as well. With significant neck sagging you would need a neck/face lift with muscle tightening (platysmaplasty). at the same time lasers (fraxel, co2 or erbium( or microneedling RF (fractora, intensif) can be . performed to improve the crepe skin or wrinkles. You need a formal consultation, as the neck can be treated with a combination approach: 1. micro needling and lasers for texture 2. botox, disport or xeomin to help platysmal bands 3. intensif or fractora RF microneedling for crepe skin and lifting 4. fillers like belotero, restylane silk, juvederm volbella to improve lines and folds 5. neck/face lifting if sagging is prominent or early starting +/- platysmaplasty (muscle tightening) 6. J plasma/Renuvion, thermiRF, inmode facetite for internal tightening 7. ultherapy and thermage for external tightening 8. regular Venus legacy, exilis ultra, or inmode forma treatments with facials to maintain tightness 9. PDO novathreads or silhouette instalift cone threads for lifting and long-term collagen production see an expert for a full evaluation and treatment plan based on your individual situation and goals.
