Would a facelift be the procedure to correct the jowl area? (Photo)

Thanks Jubilant472355 for your question! A facelift at age 27 is generally not considered standard practice but a mini facelift is a less invasive surgical procedure compared to a traditional facelift. It is intended to treat less severe forms of aging, such drooping skin around the jawline and in the lower face, which includes the jowls. The main distinction between a small facelift and a standard facelift is that the former usually includes less extensive tissue manipulation and shorter incisions. Instead than treating the entire face and neck, the surgeon concentrates on elevating and tightening certain regions. Because minifacelift is less invasive, recovery times are shorter.
Who is a good candidate for a mini facelift?
People who want a more subtle and natural-looking rejuvenation, those with good skin elasticity, and those with mild to moderate lower facial aging indications.
As nonsurgical options,Morpheus and Profound RF are both minimally invasive procedures that can help address jowling and sagging skin by stimulating collagen production. Radiofrequency (RF) radiation is administered by small needles in both therapies. By heating the skin's deeper layers, the combination of RF energy and microneedling stimulates the body's natural healing process and promotes the synthesis of new collagen and elastin. One of the main distinctions is that Profound RF often penetrates the skin more deeply than Morpheus8. In comparison to Morpheus8, Profound RF usually requires fewer treatment sessions and has a longer recovery period. Both devices make shrinkage of tissue and internal lift and are FDA approved.
Both procedures can enhance skin tone and texture while tightening and lifting drooping skin around the neck and jawline.
Hope this was helpful!

I normally would not do a facelift in someone your age. But with the weight loss I do see laxity of the skin so a facelift is a reasonable solution
