I am 42 and had minifacelift and lower eyelids surgery about 5 years ago. My face is still good and quite young, but the skin under my eyes is wrinkled and flabby again, and my jowls are sagging. I do not have excess skin anywhere on my face, but under my eyes; May I suppose another under eye surgery and can I benefit from incisions made under my eyes for liftng and fixing jowls without making too many incisions??

Answer: Eyes and face Thank you for your question. It is hard to tell without an in person consult but you may benefit from a pinch blepharoplasty to treat the excess skin on your lower eyelids. However, another lower eyelid surgery would not address your jowls. That may require another mini facelift. Best to speak to a board certified plastic surgeon for an in person consultation.

Answer: Lower Eyelid Surgery and Jowling Without photographs, it is difficult to give precise recommendations. However, lower eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) will not improve jowling, which is sagging in the lower face. At your young age, I would be cautious about further lower eyelid surgery that removes skin. An in-person consultation with an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon who performs facial aesthetic surgery on a regular basis would be beneficial so they could explain all of your options. Best wishes!
