Recommendation for Perioral mounds and noselabial folds and mid cheek. I had a High SMAS with neck lift 10 months ago. Do I need a revision SMAS facelift to lift more the Midface and mouth cheek area ? As well would microliposuction , buccal fat removal, anc or fat grafting help ? Thank you

I would recommend obtaining a second opinion from an experienced aesthetic plastic surgeon who actually does lots of facial surgery. I would personally perform a revisionary facelift and neck lift. These are all my own opinions based on the photos provided. I would recommend seeing a plastic surgeon who has great training and experience in aesthetic surgery.

Hello Dear @Sobeit3, thank you for your question. Several factors can influence the healing process following surgery. These factors include the surgical technique used by the surgeon, the type of procedure performed, and the level of recovery the patient is experiencing. To make an informed recommendation, more information is needed. A consultation is vital to establishing a surgical plan that meets your needs, meets your expectations, and takes into account what is possible. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Great series of posted photos. Based on the photos a full Face/Neck lift revision with SMAS plication, partial buccal fat removal, micro/nano fat grafting to malars, jawline. Fee $20,000. Best to virtual consult with...

Facial aging consiste of 3 main things: 1. sun damage/skin surface issues, 2. gravitational descent and laxity, and 3. deflation.
In your photos, there appears to be a significant amount of deflation, much more than laxity since you already had a facelift done. I would start with a filler program as fixing the deflation would be more beneficial than more surgery at this time. The last thing you need is buccal fat removal as this will lead to even more deflation.
