I noticed some jowls couple of years ago, also excessive skin when I smile. When I pull my skin back, my face looks much better and younger. Is mini lift too aggressive for me? And if so, what other options should I consider? Thanks.
Answer: Is Mini Facelift in 40s Too Early? Skin Quality, Not Age, Determines Need for Mini Lift Your photos show jowling, sagging, and possibly poor skin elasticity. All of these can be influenced by genetics, as well as by lifestyle choices such as smoking, which dries and ages the skin. It’s not too soon to get a Mini Lift in your 40s. In fact, many of my patients get their first cosmetic surgery at that time. It turns back the clock by about 8 to 10 years and lasts that long, too. You can add in a real “wow” effect by getting a chemical peel to resurface and rejuvenate your facial skin at the same time. I hope this helps.

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: The Right Age For A Mini Facelift I have treated many patients in their 40's with Mini Facelifts to correct early signs of facial and neck laxity. From your photos, it appears you have a degree of laxity which would be improved to give you naturally appearing rejuvenation. It also appears that you have a degree of facial volume loss, one of the earliest signs of facial aging, which could be addressed with facial fat transfer at the same time. I would suggest an in person consultation to discuss your cosmetic goals, have a thorough facial evaluation, and discussion of your cosmetic options. I have provided a link below. Good Luck!

Answer: MACS Mini-Facelift For You It sounds and looks like you are a candidate for a Mini-Facelift. My favorite technique is the MACS short scar Mini-Facelift. Developed in Europe, it is the ideal approach for the younger patient, not ready for a full facelift, or patients who desire a less invasive procedure with a shorter recovery time. I would also consider fat grafting to your face to re-define your jaw line and fill out those areas that have lost volume over time.

Answer: Age and mini-lift This is a very common question. There are several options which range from minimally invasive treatments such as fillers and energy treatments like Ultherapy. A mini lift could be a good option for you, but you really need an in person evaluation to be sure. Best wishes.
