Q: How can I get rid of my sagging jowls?

Jowls are commonly associated with ageing in the lower half of the face, often accompanied by laxity of the tissues under the chin, giving the person a double chin or “turkey neck”.

A minimal incision facelift of just the lower two-thirds of the face is often more than enough to elevate these tissues if there is some fixation of the tissues underneath (not just a skin lift). The results always look more natural when they do not rely on skin tightening alone.

The advantage of this minimal incision over traditional procedures is that there is less scarring and “down-time” while maintaining the long lasting and more natural results of complete facelifts that include this fixation of the underlying tissues.
