Hello Doctors. I'm unhappy with the heaviness of my lower face and undefined jaw line. I'd like to get something done to address the excess skin, tighten and lift the lower face and neck and also make my jaw line look more defined, I'd like a more heart shaped face vs the round or square shape I have now. I am wondering what type of face lift is best for me (deep plane, mid, mini etc)? Won't a mini / lower lift not last as long and need to be repeated soon? I'm 40. Thank you.

You have a vertically oriented face, your eyes are quite sucken and you appear thin. You have not told us your height and weight. One alternative is to gain a few pounds and that may soften the contour areas of the neck. Another alternative is a mini face lift. The incision would be placed...
You would benefit from a chin implant to balance your face. You would also benefit from a lip lift. A lip lift does 4 things: shortens the distance between your nose and upper lip, increases the mucosa of the upper lip, increases the incisor show and pulls up the corners.

A lower face/neck lift under local would look amazing and really help your appearance looking natural and is so easy to undergo . Don't bother with the worthless 1 stitch lifts which don't work at all.
