I am in my mid 30s and slender. I am noticing aging in my lips and lower face that is very upsetting to me. I have dimples (2-3 each side) in my lower face. I also have some acne&scarring. Family history of jowls. Fat transfer to my cheeks and fillers to folds have not helped issues. Also, fat transfer surgeon put fat in one of my dimples and now I have an annoying fat pocket. My new MD has recommended fillers and cortisol, but says its too soon for mid lift. I am so bothered by this. Options?

Answer: Best age for a mini-lift Mini Facelift” is a generalized “catch all” term that can mean different things depending on the doctor you ask. This often makes the real definition difficult for a patient to pin down. It typically only addresses the skin. The, LiteLift™, however, addresses the deeper muscle layer providing the patient with a thorough, natural, long lasting result.Who are the best candidates?Any healthy individual wishing to address the signs of laxity oraging in the lower face and neck. Anyone interested in a refreshed look. This can be from weight loss, genetics and family traits, or aging.

Answer: Appropriate Age for Mid-Facelift
I likely will respectfully disagree with your surgeon who says that just because you are a certain age, you are not a reasonable candidate for a mid-face lift. I routinely do midfacelifts on women in their late 30s/ early 40s, but only when appropriate. You in fact may be best treated with the definitive surgical approach, rather than trying to get desired
results from fat injections and other conservative treatments.
