Submentoplasty, mini facelift, liquid facelift, neck lift, chin liposuction, or other treatment to eliminate the extra fat and folds around my chin? I'd rather not have general anesthesia if possible.
Answer: Necklift, liposuction or other? You have skin laxity with visible relaxation around the mouth and jowls at rest as well as some aging changes in the neck. The only procedure that will definitively give long term correction is a lower facelift that addresses the again changes around the mouth as well as the jowls and neck. In my hands a minilift would improve the neck and jowls. A variety of smaller procedures and even noninvasive skin tightening could be offered with much less effect. I do all of my facial aesthetic procedures under local anesthesia and sedation which has advantages in recovery as well as being less stressful for your body.

Answer: Best options for jowls and neck You can make your decision after you seek out consultations. Without seeing you I would recommend a vertical facelift. This would address all of your concerns.Sincerely,Michael Kulick MDASPS, ASAPS memberSan Francisco Ca.

Answer: What is the Best Procedure? Almost always, the first and most important information I try to understand at consultation is what final result is desired? Your aversion to general anesthesia understood, but how much are you willing to compromise the quality of your result to avoid it? Responsible professionals must consider these and other factors before offering treatment recommendations, in my opinion.

Answer: Facelift You are an excellent candidate for a standard facelift. Don’t get confused by all the different terminology. It’s just word play. I personally don’t like fillers with the facelift and that includes fat injection. Just extra expense with no benefit at all. A submentalplatysmaplasty is part of most standard facelifts. I prefer this done under general anesthesia but it’s okay under local anesthesia with sedation as well.
