How can I make my face look ten years younger? (Photos)

Question

I am interested in your recommendations about rejuvenating my look by 10 years.

Your jawline looks well defined. You did not provide a lateral view so it is difficult to assess your neck. You may benefit from a mid facelift. Another thing to consider is a rhinoplasty. The angle between your nose and lip is abnormally low and should be about 110 degrees, yours appears to be at 70 degrees. Your tip needs to refined as well. You may want to consider an eccentric lip lift. This does 4 things: shortens the distance between your nose and upper lip, increases the mucosa of the upper lip, increases the incisor show and pulls up the corners.

Based on your photos and goals, I would recommend a combination of deep plane facelift, neck lift, upper blepharoplasty, and fat injection to achieve a rejuvenation of approximately 10 years.
The deep plane facelift repositions the deeper facial structures to effectively address jowls and nasolabial folds, providing a natural and long-lasting result. Neck lift improves the contour of the jawline and neck by addressing laxity and banding. Upper blepharoplasty refreshes the eye area and corrects any upper eyelid hooding, creating a more alert, youthful look. Fat injection restores lost volume to areas that have hollowed with age, enhancing overall facial harmony.
The exact approach and combination of these procedures would be determined after a thorough in-person evaluation, where I can assess your facial anatomy and specific aesthetic goals to create a safe and tailored treatment plan.

A true 10-year rejuvenation is best achieved with a Deep Plane Facelift, which is considered the gold standard for natural and long-lasting facial rejuvenation.Unlike traditional facelifts that only tighten the skin, the deep plane technique repositions the deeper facial structures (SMAS and fat pads), restoring youthful contours to the cheeks, jawline, and neck. This creates a refreshed appearance without the “pulled” or artificial look.Why Deep Plane Facelift stands out:Restores volume and facial anatomy, not just tightens skinTreats midface, jowls, and neck in one procedureResults look natural and last 10–15 yearsLess tension on the skin better healing and scarsFor patients seeking a noticeable but elegant transformation, this approach consistently delivers the most dramatic and youthful results.

Hi and thank you for your question.Based on your photos, you appear to be suitable for a facelift, which can significantly improve facial sagging and help you look noticeably younger and more refreshed. I hope this helps.

John Diaz, MD · Answer

Making your face look ten years younger requires addressing the underlying causes of aging, including tissue descent, loss of definition, and volume changes. In my practice, a facelift—often using an endoscopic-assisted approach for appropriate candidates—is the most effective way to reposition deeper facial structures and restore youthful contours in a natural, long-lasting way. 
Depending on your age and anatomy, I may also combine the facelift with procedures such as eyelid surgery or fat grafting to enhance overall balance. The key is a customized plan that focuses on subtle rejuvenation rather than dramatic change, so you still look like yourself, just refreshed and more youthful.

In the first photo the face looks very good. I am not sure if the facelift alone will improve it by 10 years. You will need some skin laser treatments and fillers or fat grafting as well.

Hello, This is Dr. Berat. Based on your examination, I would recommend a facelift combined with a neck lift to achieve the best and most balanced result.

Zoran Potparic, MD · Answer

Both surgical and non-surgical modalities are needed to restore youthfulness of the face. Surgical options like face lift, fat grafting, blepharoplasty should be combined with skin treatment like chemical peels, laser. In person or teleconference consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with good reputation in facial rejuvenation, should be your next step. Good luck.

Albert Yang, MD · Answer

Hello! I think you are a great candidate for face/necklift + Facial fat transfer. It's hard to tell but by any chance have you had fillers to the cheeks? If there is then I would dissolve that before surgery, then add the fat back in at time of surgery.

Darryl J. Blinski, MD · Answer

Based on your nicely posted photos, you need multiple modalities. Firstly a skin care regimen, and possible type types of skin peels; TCA, modified phenyls. Possible laser skin peels could be an option. As far as minimal or complete surgical options either a mini face neck lift with muscle tightening or a liquid facelift with H A fillers or SCULPRA injections.(fees could be in $12,000 rangers for the amount of filler needed). Or a full face neck lift modified deep plane. Those fees could be in the $20-$30,000 range.
