Statement: Dr. Elizabeth Whitaker is a double board-certified plastic surgeon in Atlanta, Georgia. An experienced plastic surgeon, Dr. Whitaker has performed thousands of facial surgical procedures, including over 5,000 facelifts.

She received her medical degree at Duke University School of Medicine in North Carolina, then headed to Atlanta for her internship in general surgery and a residency in head and neck surgery, both at Emory University School of Medicine. She then went on to complete a fellowship in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery at Tulane University School of Medicine in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Dr. Whitaker focuses on a natural appearance and individualized care to help you look your personal best. “When patients come to me, I’m helping them to understand that it’s okay to have how you look in the mirror match how you feel on the inside,” she says. “It’s okay to feel good about how you present yourself to the world and to do something like this for yourself.”

Double board-certified by the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and the American Board of Otolaryngology, Dr. Whitaker is also a fellow of the American College of Surgeons, the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, and the American Academy of Otolaryngology/Head and Neck Surgery.

What would be the most effective treatment for jowls at the age of 29?

Best treatment for early jowling
Oct 22, 2020

Hello Nicole343, Thank you for sharing your images and concerns. You are a great candidate for noninvasive treatments including Ultherapy. I would recommend an in person consultation with a facial plastic surgeon to assess your concerns and create a treatment plan. I hope this is helpful.

All my best!
Dr. Elizabeth

I want to dissolve my Voluma from 2017 before I get a fat transfer. Do I need an ultrasoun

Filler and fat transfer
Oct 22, 2020

Hello DoriannaG, After three years there is unlikely to be significant filler left. If that is a concern, it can possibly be dissolved. In either case, that should not interfere with your fat take from fat transfer. I would recommend an in person consultation with a facial plastic surgeon to assess your concerns. I hope that is helpful.

All my best!
Dr. Elizabeth

Dr. said I'm too young for a neck lift at 42 but I hate the way my neck looks, even after

Too young for a neck lift?
Oct 22, 2020

Hello Quiet, Thank you for sharing your concerns and your images. It is less about your age than how your face is structured. From the images, you do appear to have early jowling and some neck laxity. The projection of your chin may also be something to assess further. An in person consultation with a facial plastic surgeon to assess your concerns and whether you would be a better candidate for a necklift or a lower face and neck lift would be my recommendation. I hope this is helpful. ...

Should I wait to consult a physician? Interested in a mini lift, but have had fillers done

Minilift and fillers
Aug 13, 2020

Hello camon! Thank you for sharing your question and concerns. You should be able to get an evaluation for a minilift now, especially since the fillers did not give you the results you wanted. I would recommend consultation with a facial plastic surgeon to review the best options for you. I hope this is helpful.

All my best!
Dr. Elizabeth

Treatment for crepey skin under eyes? I'm 40 yrs old.

Crepey skin under the eyes
Aug 11, 2020

Hello SuzAtlanta, Thank you for sharing your pictures and your concerns. The quality of the skin can be helped with energy treatments such as radiofrequency or fractional laser with no significant downtime. CO2 laser resurfacing would have more significant results but also about 5-7 days of downtime for healing. I would recommend you see a facial plastic surgeon to explore your options. I hope this is helpful.
All my best! Dr. Elizabeth

Aug 5, 2020

Hello NellieNervosa,

Thank you for sharing your question and concerns. Ellevate is a suture based procedure. FaceTite/NeckTite utilizes radiofrequency energy to melt fat and induce collagen formation for skin tightening. It helps to sculpt the jawline and the neck, and is a great procedure for someone with early aging changes. I would recommend consulting with a facial plastic surgeon to determine what procedure is right for you. I hope this is helpful.

All my best!

Are there any other permanent options (not fillers as they don’t last long) that could be

Permanent options for the chin
Jul 28, 2020

Hello Lynne1977,
Thank you for sharing your concerns. A chin implant can be readily be performed in an office based surgery center setting, it does not have to be done in the hospital or with general anesthesia. I would recommend evaluation by a facial plastic surgeon to see if this is the procedure that best meets your needs. I hope this is helpful.

All my best!

Facelift to remove effects of hyaluronic acid filler
Apr 26, 2020

Hello Ihatemyinjections, Thank you for sharing your image and your concerns. I would recommend waiting for the filler to fully dissolve before pursuing another procedure. An in person consultation with a board certified facial plastic or plastic surgeon would be the best avenue to discuss your options. I hope that is helpful.All my best! Dr. Elizabeth

Would I be a good candidate for a mini lift?

Am I a candidate for a minilift?
Apr 25, 2020

Hello Energetic6073, Thank you for sharing your images and concerns. You are absolutely right that it is not just about your age, but how you as an individual are aging. You do appear to have sagging along the jawline but also some volume loss in the face. You definitely could be a candidate for a minilift as well as possible fat transfer to revolumize your face. There are also nonsurgical and minimally invasive options that may be available for you. I would recommend consult...

Is it possible to have neck lift surgery while on heart stent medication?

Necklift on blood thinners
Apr 10, 2020

Hello Karen Lacey, Thank you for your question and sharing your concern. If the stents are recent, your cardiologist is unlikely to let you come off blood thinners for elective surgery. However, if you have had the stents for some time, your cardiologist may consider letting you come off the medications for the perioperative period. I would discuss your desire to have elective surgery with your cardiologist at your next visit, and see what they would recommend. I hope that is helpf...

Lip Flip
Apr 3, 2020

Hello Charming812009, Thank you for sharing your concerns. Filler is one of the most predictable ways to create fuller lips. The use of neurotoxins like Botox can be used less predictably to create a "lip flip". The two can definitely also be used in combination. It should not make your smile look weird, but it can weaken the pursing of your lips. I hope this is helpful and you are pleased with your results!All my best!Dr. Elizabeth

Correcting facial shape
Apr 3, 2020

Hello Thrifty5911, Thank you for sharing your images and concerns. If it is the contour of your jawline near the chin that is the concern, that could be addressed with filler to smooth the transition. Evaluation in person with a facial plastic surgeon would be my recommendation. I hope this is helpful.All my best!Dr. Elizabeth

I have a botched neck lift. When can I get it redone? I need help and suggestions

Concerns after a neck lift
Apr 2, 2020

Hello shears12, Thank you for sharing your images and concerns. While I know you are disappointed in how your neck looks currently, it is still early in the overall healing process and time may result in a smoother appearance and softening of the tissue firmness. There is nothing to be done at this early a stage but give the tissues time to heal. Any considerations of revision procedures would be at least 6-12 months from now. I know it can be frustrating to just have to wait it out, b...

Would I be a good candidate for a rhinoplasty and/or lip lift and/or chin filler?

Filler or lip lift?
Mar 30, 2020

Hello alycattttttt, Thank you for sharing your question and concerns. Lip filler is one of the best ways to enhance fullness in both the upper and lower lip. A lip lift helps to enhance fullness of the upper lip and is best in those with an elongated upper lip to begin with. If you are interested in some tip refinement then you would be a candidate for rhinoplasty. Chin filler or a chin implant can also be used to better balance the profile. I would recommend consultation with a facial...

Is there a lot of pain after getting deep plane facelift and necklift with chin implant?

Pain after facelift
Mar 5, 2020

Hello Pioneering878, Thank you for sharing your question and concerns. Facelift is not typically a very painful procedure, but there will be some discomfort or pain, typically easily managed with pain medications in the postoperative period. A tight feeling after the procedure is normal and should resolve over a few weeks. I hope you find this helpful.All my best! Dr. Elizabeth
