I'm 56 years old and I absolutely hate my sagging jowls. I have seen many testimonials that concern me. I don't want this procedure done if it's only going to last a few years. I live in Westchester, NY and want to stay local (prefer a plastic surgeon in my area).
Answer: Best Procedure To Treat Sagging Jowls Depending on the level of laxity, the effects of a facelift and/or a neck lift will certainly outlast the effects of non-surgical treatments. Non-surgical procedures can only temporary resolve the issue and require few to several attempts. It's best to begin by consulting with a surgeon in-person. During your #consultation, your skin texture and elasticity, as well as your underlying skin structure and your facial bone structure will be evaluated. Based on this evaluation, your board certified plastic surgeons will create a custom surgical plan, detailing specific techniques and recommendations to meet your goals. In doing so, he or she should be sure to have a full understanding of what results you expect. Patients who desire facial rejuvenation that is affordable, quick, and effective should consider the Lite-lift™. Like the Life-Style™ facelift, this is a modified facelift that can be performed in the office with a local anesthetic and improve signs of aging around the neck, jawbone and lower face. These procedures are not "Thread-lifts" or "String-lifts". We do not use the "barbed" sutures employed in these other lifting operations. The Lite-lift™ uses longer lasting techniques that are discussed below. Because the incisions are limited, there is less bruising, swelling and healing time for most patients. Many patients can be back to work in one to two weeks looking rested and more youthful. If you are not a candidate at the time of your #consultation, your board certified plastic surgeon can recommend alternatives to address your concern. Consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in neck and facial procedures is important to ensure you are receiving the best advice, care, and surgical experience possible.

Answer: Mini Facelift & Mini neck lift -- FaceTite RF for internal skin tightening + Neck Liposuction for definition/contouring FaceTite can internally tighten the skin in the lower face and neck. After all the skin has been heated and contracted, we shape the neck with liposuction to give definition and remove stubborn pockets of fat. In one quick treatment, we can tighten skin, remove fat, and contour the lower face, jawline, and jowls with only a weekend of downtime. Keep in mind that combination approaches will give you a more significant improvement as opposed to a single procedure. I recommend getting a consultation with a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: A Short Scar Facelift is usually the best option for sagging jowls/neck and most patients find it very worth it A short scar facelift is a great option for many people. The recovery & downtime is very minimal. There are usually no drains, most people can go out the same day, you can shower the next day, there're no scars behind the ears and you can wear your hair up anytime and most patients take no pain medicine. The result is usually the same in selected patients as a full scar facelift but it really depends on your exam.

Answer: Effective and Long-lasting Procedure for Lifting Jowls? Jowls are sagging of the facial skin and underlying tissue over ligaments attaching the skin to the bones. They can never be corrected by just filling the face with fillers. A proper facelift procedure involving pulling the SMAS should be performed for best results. In cases like yours I personally use the composite facelift technique where a SMAS flap is elevated with minimal skin dissection, a very quick recovery and very long lasting result. Some parts can also be filled with fat grafting (Lift & Fill) to enhance to overall result and make you look even younger. Reduction of your buccal fat also through the same approach will help you get a nice and tight "nefertiti" result.
