Facelift or thread lift due to weight loss and braces? Advice needed please (Photo)

Asked By:kamja25 in 서울특별시, South Korea

I’m 27, asian. Ever since I lost weight & got braces, my cheeks and lips are sagging. I removed 2 teeth due to an overbite & the gaps are almost closed (about 0.5 inches on both sides left). It’s been 2.5 years & my orthodontist says there’s less than a year left. I also heard there is something called thread lifting too. I’m wondering which one would be better in my case & I can’t stand how it looks so I was wondering if it’s ok to get either procedures done during my braces.
