Excellent question. As you have astutely observed, the “ptosis” only occurs when you are talking or smiling – meaning when you activate your facial muscles. At rest, you do not notice a problem. Fillers are great to correct volume deficiencies, but neurotoxins such as Botox or Dysport are the way to go for dynamic issues like the one you point out.

I’m recommend talking to your plastic surgeon about this, and good luck!

First of all, you’re beautiful! As we age, sometimes the skin shows the first signs of decreased volume in our faces, mainly due to collagen changes. This can look like extra skin that hangs down, almost like our favorite, well-worn shirt that is now a bit stretched out. Fillers are certainly an option that can help camouflage some of those changes, but don’t work well to tighten extra skin. More and more women in their 40s are choosing to undergo a face and neck lift to tighten up that skin…
