Hi! These pictures are 5 years apart. White shirt is now. I'm 40 years old and 6 months postpartum. I gained 60 lbs during my pregnancy and have managed to lose 50 of it since giving birth. But it's taken a huge toll on my face. My lower face droops, my jawline is mush, and my double chin won't budge. Not crazy about my neck either. Which surgical procedures would get me back to 5 years ago and approximately what would it cost? Was thinking mini facelift? I'm in Southern California. Thanks!

Answer: Face lift A variety of procedures fall within the category of a face lift. To clarify, a face lift, also known as rhytidoplasty, rhytidectomy, or meloplasty, is a common term used to describe the traditional face lift procedure which aims to enhance the lower two-thirds of the face and neck. Typically, incisions are made around and inside the ears. This procedure rejuvenates the face and neck by removing localized fat deposits such as jowls, while elevating other areas such as the malar fat pads and nasolabial folds, and tightening deeper structures such as muscle and connective tissue (SMAS). The result is a skillful redraping of the skin to create a more youthful appearance. You would greatly benefit from that procedure.

Answer: Neck or lower face/neck lift it you are considering surgical procedure, very likely that anterior neck lift may be good procedure for you. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon, expert in face/neck surgery, is recommended. Good luck.
