Would a facelift help with my sagging face? (Photo)

A deep plane facelift is an advanced surgical technique that targets deeper facial structures for more natural and long-lasting results. Unlike simpler and less modern facelifts that primarily tighten the skin, the deep plane approach repositions the underlying muscles and tissues, addressing sagging and volume loss more efficiently. This technique provides a more youthful and refreshed appearance without the "pulled" look often associated with facelifts. Recovery time is comparable to other facelift methods, but the results are typically more enduring and harmonious.

Unfortunately, fillers are only a short fix solution. With aging, skin and deeper tissues droop lower and in some parts of the face the tissues deflate and lose volume. This gives the classical sagging appearance as we age. The idea behind "facelift" is to restore volume to the face by repositioning the tissues back to their normal positions. This type of surgery is longer lasting than fillers, but not permanent. I would recommend that you see a plastic surgeon with an interest in facial surgery for a full assessment. Based on this, different options can be discussed to address your goals.

A facelift helps to position your tissues, improve the nasolabial folds and correct the contour of your neck. The changes are spectacular.

Hello !

Based on the pictures you provided, I believe that you would benefit from a facelift with fat transfer to the face.

The most appropriate candidates for a classic face lift are those who have a well-defined bone structure but whose face and skin are slack and sagging due to age or extreme weight loss.

Of course, consult with a board certified plastic surgeon expert in this field.

I hope this helps,

Good luck !
