When I bow my head my cheeks droop forward leaving unsightly nasolabial folds and sagging cheeks. I would like to know if they're are suitable non-surgical options or do I need a facelift. I would like to avoid surgery as I just had lefort, bsso, and genioplasty a year and half ago and I am just not ready for another major surgery. Thank you for your time.
Answer: Mini Facelift & Mini neck lift -- FaceTite RF for internal skin tightening + Neck Liposuction for definition/contouring FaceTite can internally tighten the skin in the lower face and neck. After all the skin has been heated and contracted, we shape the neck with liposuction to give definition and remove stubborn pockets of fat. In one quick treatment, we can tighten skin, remove fat, and contour the lower face, jawline, and jowls with only a weekend of downtime. Keep in mind that combination approaches will give you a more significant improvement as opposed to a single procedure. I recommend getting a consultation with a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Morpheus8 can help minimize the appearance of nasolabial folds and loose skin on the face Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Answer: What are non-surgical options for nasolabial folds and sagging cheeks? Hello, thank you for your question and for including photos. A good, non-surgical treatment for the jowl and neck area of the face is Ultherapy. The Ultherapy treatment is the only non-invasive procedure FDA -cleared to lift skin on the neck, under the chin and on the eyebrow. Ultherapy delivers focused ultrasound energy to the same foundational layer typically addressed by surgeons during cosmetic surgery - without cutting or disrupting the surface of the skin. Therefore, no down time. The energy initiates the body's natural response to stimulate the growth of fresh, new collagen and strengthen weak collagen. You can click on the link below to get more information about this procedure as well as before and after photos.Good Luck!
