I'm 38 and am very unhappy with how my lower face is aging. I've heard very conflicting things regarding thread lifts, fillers and even treatments like Morpheus8. I had a halo and BBL treatment last year and as minimal improvement. I've also had filler, several syringes and also didn't see much improvement but am being told I need more. At the cost of 700-800 plus I might as well just save it for my facelift later on in life.
Answer: Appropriate HA Fillers Injected Properly Can Recontour Lower Face, Define Jawline & Diminish Smile& Marionette Lines I am hardly surprised that relatively expensive, energy-based gizmo treatments did not work. I have been cautioning my regular readers for years already that the hard science to support the use of these devices lags woefully behind the heavy marketing hype and social media buzz to promote them. Sorry. I gave up thread-lifts years ago. The results do not last as long as promised and the rates of adverse reactions, such as skin dimpling, divets, extrusion of the threads, infections, etc., are way to high. From the photo provided, there appears to volume deficit in the lower face and loss of definition of the jawline that can be quite easily addressed with the use of an appropriately robust HA filler. Likewise, the smile lines and prominent marionette lines can be improved with the appropriate injection technique of the proper HA filler to address these issues. I would strongly suggest that you make sure to be consulting with an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatology filler expert. Frankly, filler treatment for all the areas noted above by an experienced injector should take no more than about 30 minutes to perform with immediate, meaning on-the-spot results. So, once again, I would suggest that you make sure to be seeking evaluation and treatment by an expert physician. And, one more piece of advise. If you go into a consult asking upfront for a particular gizmo or threadlift, etc. treatment, you may unfortunately get what you ask for. Hope this helps and best of luck.

Answer: Non surgical facelift The results of non-surgical lower face treatments depend greatly on the quality of materials used and the expertise of the provider. High-quality threads, fillers, and bio-stimulating agents can create natural and long-lasting improvements, but their success relies on proper placement and technique. An experienced provider will assess your unique facial structure and aging concerns, tailoring the treatment to achieve balanced, natural results.

Answer: Non surgical face lifts Hello, my name is Ranen and I work at Shah Aesthetics. The thing about non surgical treatments, you are going to get non surgical results. You will get some improvement and will need multiple treatments as well. I think doing RF needling such as morpheus8 or Forma, will help to tighten and lift along with some botox in the lower half of the face may help.

Answer: Needs for Thermage FLX Method Hello, as far as I examine for your face, the looseness in the tissues is at the forefront. That's why; I will first recommend for you Thermage FLX method. Rope hanger is a choice; which is incorrect. Straps are visible on thin and sagging skin. First of all, an increase in skin quality and firmness should be achieved. Hyaluronic Acid fillers should not be used on your face. Hyaluronic Acid fillers weigh down; loose skin and cause downward volume of the face. BBL does not provide any noticeable benefit. Actually, what you need is Thermage FLX treatment. Thermage FLX will maximize for your texture quality in a serious way. It will create non-surgical face lift on your face. It is confirmed and approved by FDA in this regard. I advise for you Lanluma technique; in addition to this treatment. Lanluma is a PLA molecule. It includes liquid face lift. It gives youth and firmness rather than fullness and renews the skin. With the combination of these two treatments, your skin is gradually rejuvenated from the inside and outside zones, and the final effect after six months would be permanent for many years. I recommend Radiesse for your Midface, Nasolabial and Marionette lines. Radiesse, which is a Calcium Hydroxyapatite molecule that offers you a lifting effect as well as a slight plumpness. I am sure that you will get an excellent results with these combination.

Answer: For moderate improvement I would suggest Morpheus8. This may delay your facelift for some time. You have developed some early jowl formation. This is also starting to form a "marionette" appearance. Fillers can certainly be used to mask this to some extent. Tightening of the skin however would be the optimal treatment. Tightening of the skin of the cheek and jowl and also treating the deeper skin and fat of the jowl with Morpheus8 device would be helpful.
