I have been suggested a MFL with incision under the eye as it is felt i now have excess skin which needs to be excised hence endoscopic not being an option. I assume as excess skin cannot be excised. Can this change the shape of the lower eyes by dragging skin down even many years later if not soon after?

Answer: Will eyelid shape be changed with a midface lit performed throught the lower eyelid? HI Amber, It depends on the surgeon and their familiarity with the procedure. I will say that I have seen some fairly scary photos at meetings with type of technique and I personally would not perform a facelift that way. I do not think that you can get an adequate neck lift at all if you try to do a full facelift this way.Best,Dr. Christine Rodgers

Answer: Will the eye shape be changed with a Midface lift (MFL) performed from incision under the eyes? Hello, thank you for your question. There is not just one facelift procedure, but a whole range of facelift procedures. These different techniques have been developed over the years, involving different incisions and lifting the skin to varying degrees. A facelift may also involve the tightening of certain muscles and tissues, or liposuction of areas such as the jowls or chin. It is important to choose a highly skilled and experienced certified plastic surgeon to match your goals and skin type with the appropriate surgical techniques.
