Do I need a facelift at 28 or are there other options? Is it all just in my head? I feel my face is dropping (Photo)

Thanks for your question!  I do not think you need a facelift at age 28.  Looking at your photo, however, I do think you would benefit greatly from Botox and hyaluronic acids (fillers) to help rejuvenate your look.  Be sure to consult with an experienced injector for optimal outcome.  Good luck!

Young patients in the 20s don't need a facelift. When young patients in this age bracket start looking "old" is usually because volume loss in the face. Therefore, the plastic surgery procedure to "rejuvenate" a young face with volume restoration with either fat transfer to the face ( with fat harvested from the belly) or fillers . Patients interested in facial volume restoration plastic surgery should make a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon specialized in plastic surgery procedures of the face

Hello, thank you for your questions. 28 is very young to consider a surgery like a facelift. Although we don't like to put "ages" on things, a facelift would be something that I would not recommend to someone your age. My advice, would be to consider treatments like Botox, Fillers, Laser, Radiofrequency and general skin Care. You will be amazed at the results that can be achieved with this non-surgical treatments. James Bonaparte
