The flipside is the know-it-all who walks in and states unequivocally, “I need a mid facelift.” Although you may think you know what you want because you know someone who had the procedure or you saw it done on TV or read about in a magazine or online, it may not be right for you. Your skin type, degree of sagging skin, individual healing, bone structure, overall health, and any earlier interventions you have had in that area will determine to some extent the quality of the result you can expect. Describe the effect you want to achieve, and try to be open to hearing what each surgeon recommends. For surgical procedures, it is wise to see at least three surgeons in consultation and possibly more, and it is not unusual to get different opinions from each of them. There are many approaches that may offer great benefits, and each individual cosmetic doctor will have his or her preferences and favorites. One of the most common mistakes people make is to zero in on one concern while missing something else that is more reasonable to consider improving, or focusing on one thing but ignoring something else that may be affected. For example, fixating only on your droopy upper eyelids when your brows are sinking; or having your neck done but ignoring the deep lines around your mouth; or having only your forehead crease injected with botulinum toxin when your nose-to-mouth creases are equally aging. Changing or rejuvenating one feature on your face can make your other features look different or even older by comparison. It’s like painting only one wall of a room; the other three walls may end up looking look old and dingy. The best approach to cosmetic enhancements is to look at your face as a whole to determine what treatments, surgical and non-surgical, will yield the best results within the time frame and budget you have set aside.
