I am 26 years old but I really feel that my face sags much more than it should for someone of my age due to dramatic weight loss in my teens. I hate the folds from the sides of my nose and mouth. Is a surgical mini face lift an ideal procedure for someone of my age?
Answer: Non-Surgical Face Lift / Skin Resurfacing with Renuvion/J-Plasma -- add Lasers, Microneedling/PRP, Ultherapy, FaceTite In our practice, we perform a non-surgical face lift / skin resurfacing treatment using Renuvion Helium Plasma Radiofrequency. To get the most improvement with skin tightening, we combine Renuvion (formerly J-Plasma) with lasers (Fraxel, Clear + Brilliant, CO2), microneedling/PRP, Ultherapy and InMode FaceTite. I suggest getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Ideal Age to Consider Your Facelift Options A #facelift is a surgical procedure designed to smooth and remove major folds, wrinkles and excess skin around the #neck and #jawline; which form on our faces with age. Gravity, sun damage, smoking, living in a dry climate, and a variety of factors contribute to the aging process of our faces. The best candidates for facelifts such as #LiteLift are patients 35-60 years old with early changes of the lower face and the neck.It is important to understand that facelifts are not intended to remove fine wrinkles. A facelift which removes every line and fold would be too aggressive resulting in an unnatural result. Fine lines and #wrinkles are better addressed by non-invasive skin treatments such as chemical peels or microdermabrasion, which we also offer at our office. At this point and your age, you may not be a #facelift candidate. However, there are many other cosmetic options to accomodate your goals at your age all while providing great results. Consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon or their licensed esthetic staff to learn more about treatments best for you.

Answer: Mini-Facelift I appreciate your concern, and photos would be helpful, but I doubt Mini-Facelift is needed because you are only 26. Other, less invasive options, include Botox and fillers. Be sure to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!

Answer: Mini face lift expectations Thanks for your question. It would have to be a unique case for me to offer a facelifting procedure to someone as young as you. I would bet that you could achieve a nice improvement through non-surgical methods such as fillers and laser-resurfacing technology. I'd suggest meeting w/ a trusted plastic surgeon near you for options. Best wishes.

Answer: Mini facelift at 26 Thank you for your question. Typically someone 26 years old would not be a candidate for a mini facelift. However Sn examination would be in order to determine whether a surgical or non-surgical procedure would be the optimal treatment for you. There are many noninvasive treatments to assist with volume loss in the face such as fillers and fat grafting.Typically , when you add volume to the face it provides a much more youthful image . If you have a moderate amount of skin laxity , jowls , and deep nasolabial folds a mini face lift may be the answer to your concerns . Definitely a consult with a board certified plastic surgeon is recommended .
