Because of genetics and environmental factors, people age at different rates and in different ways. Some patients begin to develop sagging skin on their lower face in their 50s and 60s, but some patients want to nip jowls and sagging skin in their 40s—sometimes, even in their 30s. As mentioned above, Dr. Sayed cares about one thing: making sure you derive value from treatment. To undergo a facelift, it’s necessary to have sufficient facial aging to qualify for the procedure, and that will mean different times for different people. The truth is that there is really no “best” time for everyone, which is why it’s important to talk to Dr. Sayed to see if you’re an ideal candidate.
