What is Best Procedure for Mild Sagging in Lower Face and Below Eyes?

During your #consultation, your skin texture and elasticity, as well as your underlying skin structure and your facial bone structure will be evaluated. Based on this evaluation, your board certified plastic surgeons will create a custom surgical plan, detailing specific techniques and recommendations to meet your goals. In doing so, he or she should be sure to have a full understanding of what results you expect.Patients who desire facial rejuvenation that is affordable, quick, and effective should consider the Lite-lift™. Like the Life-Style™ facelift, this is a modified facelift that can be performed in the office with a local anesthetic and improve signs of aging around the neck, jawbone and lower face. These procedures are not "Thread-lifts" or "String-lifts". We do not use the "barbed" sutures employed in these other lifting operations. The Lite-lift™ uses longer lasting techniques that are discussed below. Because the incisions are limited, there is less bruising, swelling and healing time for most patients. Many patients can be back to work in one to two weeks looking rested and more youthful.The best candidates for #LiteLift are non-smoking patients 35-60 years old with early changes of the lower face and the neck. But whose skin has elasticity with well defined bone structure. Older patients who cannot or do not wish to have a longer operation or general anesthetic may also be a candidate for a Lite Lift™.

It is also possible to #combine #surgeries. In fact, I commonly recommend other procedures to go accompany a facelift, such as blepharoplasty or a midface (cheek) lift, to name a few. The combination of multiple of facial procedures may create an optimal result. If you are not a #candidate, your surgeon can make other suggestions to address your concerns and objectives. It is extremely important to seek a board certified plastic surgeon highly trained with your desired procedures.

Thank you for your question.  Addressing mild sagging of the jowl area can be done with a procedure that is available called a Quicklift.  A Quicklift is a modified or simplified facelift that will address the areas of your concern.  Having a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon will help you with the procedures for which you may be a candidate.  Best wishes.

   A facelift is probably what you need, and you appear to have diagnosed this already.  Find the plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of facelifts each year.  Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

hi
Considering your age, I think that the best solution is a facelift limited to this part of the face with a lower blepharoplasty
It s simple , safe with a minimal downtime 

Mild facial loose skin can be treated with various treatments.  The options include restoring facial volume with fat or Sculptra.  Other options are face lift or non-operative skin tightening treatments. An evaluation by your doctor will determine which are the most appropriate treatment options. 

Hi.  Depending on the amount of volume loss and skin laxity, you may want to consider non surgical options such as Radiesse or Juvederm fillers combined with Sculptra volumizer.  These options would not replace a mini or full facelift but maybe buy you a few years until surgical intervention is necessary.

there are so many names for the same basic operation that anyone can get confused. a straightfoward facelift is probably what you need. the actual details make the different names. see a good PS in your area. get a second and third opinion and then choose wisely. good luck

If you are content with your neck, I would suggest a Minilft. This procedure will help your jowl, cheek, and temple areas (the areas that you suggested you would like to see improved). The recovery is less than with say a facelift and will give you excellent results.

This sounds like a mini lift and fat frafting to fill in the sagging areas.This is a common early aging pattern and in most cases the neck doesnt need to be addresed.

 This seems a perfect scenario for a minimal incision type Face Lift.


Small incisions

Rapid recovery time 

Can be performed in 90 minutes with or without anesthesia

Patients are free to fly back home all over the worlds in as little as 3 days post-op


 Typically, we combine this with aesthetic shaping of the face with fillers and or implants to the cheeks, whichever is more appropriate in each specific case.
