Should I get a face lift and/or filler? (Photo)

Question

Hi, I'm 39 years old. I have sagging jowls, nasolabial folds, indentation under my eyes & small chin. I want fill out the sides of my chin because it really pronounces my sagging jowls. I see an improvement in the indent under my eye, nasolabial folds & sagging jowls when I lift up the lower half of my face. Do I need filler, implant or facelift and where? Can this & blepharoplasty+brow lift be done ahead of rhinoplasty? How much time do I need between the surgeries?

Thank you for posting your question and photos. Many people combine liquid fillers with a facelift procedure to optimize their surgical results. A facelift can reduce the appearance of jowls and nasolabial folds for a defined and long-term lift, while dermal fillers can be used to volumize the indentations you describe. 
This combination of treatment options may help you achieve your overall aesthetic goals. I recommend that you schedule an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon who can assess your needs and help to develop the best course of action for you.

I would encourage you to schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. During your consultation, your surgeon will be able to assess your unique needs and develop a treatment plan that is right for you. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.
