I have cheeks that have dropped somewhat and jowls. Since my bone structure is very narrow, I'm unwilling to undergo surgery if it takes more volume from my face.

Answer: Facial Volume After Surgery Thank you for your question. The natural aging process results in loss of volume in our upper face with tissue laxity resulting in jowls and a relative narrowing of the face and a more rectangular shape. The heart shape face of youth is a result of volume and lack of sagging of the tissues. Young faces tend to be wide in the cheek and upper outer face known aa the Zygoma. The degree o fulness varies from patient to patient and this needs to be taken into consideration when discussing both surgical and less invasive options. Having a naturally narrow face the changes of volume loss make appear even more pronounced.A lower facelift should actually improve your facial contour by repositioning the jowl and should be done in conjunction with volumizing the face with fat injections. This will allow for enhancement o your facial contour and give you a more youthful shape which will not be sunken or hollow. IF anything it should give you a softer fuller look taking into account your natural shapeBest of LuckDrG

Answer: Facelift does not take away volume Facelift does not take away volume and does not effect bone structure. You seem to misunderstand this great operation. It will enhance you within your limits. It is nothing to be afraid of. Everyone who can afford it deserves to have it.
