I had what was called the quick lift and was very pleased. But as you can see I could use something done. Please give me a few options
Answer: Revision face lift You had some kind of face lift 10 years ago. You state it was called a quick lift. There is no academic equivalent for this procedure so it sounds more like a marketing tool. Because you are 10 years older since your last procedure, you have obviously continued to age and as a woman you have lost volume in your face and you have gravitational falling of facial soft tissues. In order to produce a natural looking facial rejuvenation,you need fillers to restore volume and possible surgical elevation of the fallen facial tissues.Don't over do it Be conservative.

Answer: Revision to Original Facelift 10 Years Prior Patients who desire facial rejuvenation that is affordable, quick, and effective should consider the Lite-lift™. The LiteLift™ is an innovative facelift developed by board-certified plastic surgeons Dr. Larry Nichter and myself which benefits many male patients. The goal of the #LiteLift is to provide a less invasive natural looking option for both men and women desiring to refresh their appearance with less downtime and risks. The LiteLift® is a “real” facelift, which does address the underlying muscle, tissue and overlying skin.The technique requires limited incisions and takes a vertical lifting approach, in contrast to the traditional facelift, which requires extensive incisions and lifts or pulls the face towards the ears horizontally. The modern techniques used allow us to perform most LiteLift® procedures in the office under local anesthesia. Also, removing the risk of general anesthesia opens the door for more people to pursue facial surgery. All too often people do not move forward with undergoing the desires facelift surgery due to their overwhelming fear of the risks associated with general anesthesia.

Answer: Lower facelift will be a great option I'm happy to hear you were pleased with your "quick lift." These "mini" lifts are typically done in offices and can be a reasonable option for early signs of facial aging, but are less adequate for more advanced aging signs. Based on your photos, you have more significant aging that a mini lift/quick lift won't address well. A formal lower facelift--which also includes a neck lift--will nicely rejuvenate your face and neck. A properly done lower facelift should last another ten years. Best regards.

Answer: My face has drooped after my quick lift facelift procedure (10 years ago): what are my options???? Here is something that may help you think this through logically:1. Will I do well with another quick lift procedure?A: NO! Neither a quick lift nor a no-scar lift nor a micro-lift nor a no-bruise lift nor a weekend-lift, nor a lift-only-with-fat-lift, nor a comma-lift, nor a micro-scar lift, nor a no-scar lift, nor a Yoga-lift, nor a magic-balm lift, nor an acupuncture-lift. Other surgeons on this site will have heard of many more different and cleverly-worded types of "lifts": share them with me please! 2. Will I do well with a proper face and neck lift?A: Absolutely.3. Should I also have a brow lift, upper and lower blepharoplasty and cheek lift?A: Only if these parts of the face bother you! If you are happy, don't let us tell you what to do!4. Should I have fat grafts and lasers at the same time as my face and neck lift?A: Almost certainly. In order to give you a pleasing result with a reasonably long-term improvement, combining procedures at the same sitting is wise and fruitful.5. Does this mean my quick lift failed?A: No. If you were happy with what you got 10 years ago, then time and tide waiteth for no man (or woman). Aging is progressive and no facelift lasts forever. It is perfectly reasonable for you to need a further procedure after 10 years (IF the changes bother you!).6. How long will this last, if I have a proper face and neck lift with ancillary procedures as my surgeon suggests?A: Many a long and happy year! Enjoy it with vitality and vivacity while you can! Tempus fugit!Excellent question and you have received very sensible answers: this particular thread of the question and answer series (excluding mine) should be framed by RealSelf to allow others to gain from it.Au revoir.Prof. Bhupendra C. K. Patel MD, FRCS
