I'm almost 30 yrs old now, and weigh 220 lbs, even when I was skinny when I was younger and very athletic looking! The skin on my face always seemed to be loose, when I tilt my head the skin drags down, or if I look down it all falls into my cheeks and feels as if it's going to fall off my face! I know it cannot be fat! Just maybe extra skin that I will never grow into? Not sure what I can do??

Thanks for your question. Without seeing pictures its hard to say exactly what procedures you would benefit from. I would suggest visiting a board certified plastic surgeon to determine what if any procedures would be right for you.

Hi Jen!

I would recommend you visit with a board certified plastic surgeon for an in person evaluation. You are young. It is possible non surgical treatment may work for you, such as injectibles.

Best of luck!

It sounds like you would be a candidate for my minifacelift which I do under a local anesthetic only with shorter recovery. I would need photos at least to evaluate and offer Facetime.

Seek out a plastic surgeon for an in-person evaluation of your tissues and so various treatment options can be entertained.
