I originally planned for upper and lower bleph with ptosis repair, and maybe lipo, etc under chin area; probably fat transfer too, but seems a facelift is automatically rec'd for woman my age. If I decide I want the FL later is there a downside to already having the eyes done? I definitely have volume loss, but facelift doesn't do that anyway. Eyes and chin bother me most. Thank you for your time.

Answer: Optimal timing of facelift and eyelid surgery Optimally, all the needed procedures for facial rejuvenation should be done at the same time, such as facelift and blepharoplasty. On the other hand some patients elect to undergo just eyelid surgery and at a later time successfully undergo a facelift, although on occasion some fine tuning of lower eyelid might be required.

Answer: Timing of face and eyelid surgery? In general, I tell patients that the best money you can spend is on the eyes. Nothing makes you look better than periorbital, or eyelid, rejuvenation to get rid of that tired, puffy, wrinkled look encompassing the eyes. While excess facial and neck skin, and facial volume loss are a nuisance, they are second only to the eyes.So go ahead and treat your eyes first or do them at the same time, but not the other way around. "Here's looking at you kid,".....good luck.
