Which lift will moderately improve earls jowls, loss of gravity and volume in midface? (Photo)

Question

I am noticing loss of volume in my jowl area. I am currently getting tear trough filler. I am wondering if there is a type of brow lift that can subtly lift the cheeks as well, lower temporal lift? Or should I consult with a mini lift, midface lift? Thank you

This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. Buccal fat pad gives slimming not symmetry. Masseter botox will make you slimmer and make the jawline more loose. Fillers help give shaping and contouring. If you want perfect or close to perfect symmetry you need maxillofacial surgery or implants customized. I suggest seeing an expert to go through all options. Most of my younger clients use fillers to give them shaping especially on the cheeks, jawline, and chin which make the face look more slim and tight; and threads such as PDO or Instalift can build collagen and support the facial shaping and skin looseness over time, slowing down the aging process and given the face a more “snatched” look; and morpheus8 or PiXel8 deep microneedling RF can tighten crepe skin especially on the neck and jawline and is great for long term tightening of the full face, neck and chest; its often used to give the face a slimmer more sculpted look because it tightens the skin and gives lift. an early face lift can be performed as well even in younger clients if they want a different facial shape, maxillofacial surgery with bone breaking or shaving can also be done. For facial slimming a combination of treatments are always needed. Options include: 1. Buccal fat pad removal to reduce fat on the lower face 2. Factite or Renuvion/J Plasma to tighten the lower face, jawline, and chin to reduce fat and give the jawline and neck tightening and shaping. 3. Botox to the masseter to reduce the muscular size of the jaw giving the face an illusion of being more slender 4. Fillers to the jawline, chin, cheeks, temples and brow help to shape the face and make it more angled and defined Always use at home derma rolling (see link to Emerageskin x anteageMD roller plus stem cells/hyaluronic acid ampules) and peels like emeragecosmetics enlighten or aerify that can be used to improve skin quality and tighten the skin while improving wrinkles, pigmentation, acne, and Melasma. See an expert who does facial shaping with surgical and non surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for sharing your questions and posting your photographs. From the photographs it appears your cheeks are the appropriate size for your face. Perhaps giving a slight increased volume to your temples might enhance your cheeks. This can be performed with proper placement of Radiesse. See an ocular facial surgeon for comprehensive evaluation and proper guidance. Good luck!

The brows, malar and temporal areas can be lifted with an endoscopic brow-midface lifting operation. The incisions are hidden inside the hairline. This operation highly benefits the upper section of the face and has minimal effect on the lower face. I would suggest an upper face lifting instead of a lifting done with a pre-auricular incision.
