    Its sad that our most powerful and wise years are undermined by facial aging and low self esteem.

    I know it can be done because I find beauty in other older faces.

      I agree 100%. The way to start is to completely ignore men who talk about older women as if we are garbage. Too many women have been trained by opinions that should never matter...
      I take very good care of my skin but genetics is on my side in it's texture and coloring. Yes my face is aging but as you so wisely state, it's the elder stage where we are in are our wisest and most powerful years. This is why we are feared. Blessings ❤

    I'm 68. This is the first - and likely the last - video I have watched on aging skin. Chubby cheeks in youth and jowls with age absolutely run in my family, and they're showing up in spades this year. My takeaway from this "experience" is that there's nothing I can do about jowls without spending huge amounts of money on products and procedures, and even that will only bring a very temporary improvement.
    I already have a very basic b.i.d. healthy skin regimen, so I'll just continue that, try to eat healthier, drink more water, and spend my money on meditation classes to help me accept myself and aging as a healthy, beautiful part of life.
    Thanks for helping me get over that mental hurdle quite quickly.

      I'm a similar age, outdoor aussie bloke and was thinking exactly exactly the same thing. Isn't this young woman's honesty tremendous, saving a lot of us considerable time and money, I like her a lot. Why does anybody want to head towards the end of their life looking like a brand new car that never left the showroom anyway? It's not half as appealing as an old jalopy covered in dings, dents, bumper stickers and 27 layers of paint attesting to the many different eras it continues to live thru.

      This was such a beautiful post to run into tonight -thank you for your words that provided much perspective and real beauty. At 53 I have noticed a round face and when looking at profile from the side it seems like my chin and neck are sloping into each other -really a bummer. I have trichotillomania -no lashes or brows either -so this is just not great for my esteem. However, I will also try my best but I want to be around positive like minded people like you -too much obsession over things that really just can't be controlled.

      @moonharp We are the same age - I'll be 69 in early November - and everything you said is ME! My skin is wrinkle free and smooth, except for some forehead lines, but the jowls are here to stay. My mother had them as well, with beautiful skin and few wrinkles. I am a carbon copy of my mother as far as our facial aging. I aged the same way she did. I have very high cheekbones, which helps, I think, with the "falling face," but also I've noticed my cheeks have started to not be as fulll as they used to be. I do what you do and drink lots of water and moisturize, try to eat well, and will be getting in more exercise, but I'm tired of buying things and doing things that are supposed to rid me of these "pouches." It's time to enjoy the years I have left (husband recently passed) and not worry about what I can't fix. It's not that important in the grand scheme of life.. Thank you for saying it best , and I'm sure you're a beautiful women! Blessings! +

    I have been massaging my face and doing face yoga for a very long time now I can confirm that it has helped me immensely. You just have to look at some of the Asian women teaching these tequnique to know they work. Also like any excersise or gentle treatment it takes time to see result but if you are persistent you can see them 100%. Shereene, I think you are a lovely person and you look beautiful and have fabulous skin but I would urge you to stop advising people to avoid using tools and technique that work and are natural and can help many many people look better and feel better.
    Saying face excersie is temporary is the same as saying body excersise is temporary.. so would you advice people not to exercise completely??

      There’s not much you can do about heredity, but you can create a welcoming facial facial expression. A couple of years ago, I worked to devrlooe a more positive mental attitude and aimed for a slight relaxed smile as my resting face. I’m 77 and now live alone. But I practice it as I sit at my computer, cook, or run my errands. As we get older, we tend to wear on our faces what we are thinking, and may have been thinking for years. So many wear a perpetual frown, lines of anger, depression , judgement, and life disappointment. As we get older, no matter what physical changes are happening, we can project a serenity and welcome in our facethat is gold to people stressed by life. A smile can change any face into something lovely. Believe, it takes some work inside before it shows outside. But if I can help someone in a moment to feel loved, accepted, and beautiful with a smile, I have fulfilled a desire in my older age to make a difference.

    Thank you doctor for this video. Ihave tried almost everything to look younger + delay aging as much as possible, anything from face exercises, vitamin C serum, Fraxel, collagen supplements and of course Retin A (7 years straight), home devices and what not. However, nothing made any real difference compared to the high-quality derma pen I purchased for under 100 bucks. Within 3 months of use, my skin has improved DRAMATICALLY. I don't look like I'm 18 again, but definitely not 41 either. My fine lines have disappeared completely, and my nasolabial folds are way less are nonexist (Never had jowls though). People often underestimate the power of wounding and the revolutionary effects it can have on the skin.

As you know, as we get old, our skin gets thinner therefore creating wrinkles. But the wounding kept my skin still thick and youthful. Your comment will help so many women to restore their skin..

    Hello lovely ladies! A couple of things that have helped me :- sleeping on my back. Even with a soft pillow your face gets squished for several hours during the night and over time I'm sure this increases sagging of the skin and lines under the eyes. Also, good posture helps and my neck, jowl and double chin all look better for seeing a physio and exercising to stop me dropping my head forward. Also, smile a lot and nobody will notice your jowls 😊

      I wish I could sleep on my back, but I have asthma and it's uncomfortable. Plus, I snore when I sleep on my back. Finally bought silk pillowcases and that seems to help some. As to your last comment, we have to remember when we look in the mirror we see something much different than others do. We're looking at a static image, for the most part, whereas others are watching your eyes, your smile and facial expressions. All of those things are expressions of personality which is the most attractive (or in some cases, unattractive) thing others see. So yes...just be happy and smile more! I'm 64 and most people think I'm in my early 50s because I laugh and smile a lot!

That really helped me to lift those areas as I toned the muscles, and the jawline is back. I think face exercises is the best, and just being constant is the key, you really see good results. Also healthy food and much water are natural and important things that make your skin look nice.

I just moved to NY and have been looking for a very good dermal filler person. Like the ones you mentioned with a keen eye and precise hand. The real deal. If you could recommend anyone like that, I would be VERY grateful.

    You didn’t loose me - I appreciate your honesty. Coming from a middle aged woman that hasn’t had any procedures done on my face whatsoever. I’m looking for the most basic procedures to start with and so this was all amazing information. I’ve done so much research to date and I discern that you’re spot on.
    Thank you 🙏

    So so interesting! Thank you! I’m be just started to really notice the jowls - I’m 51. We need to be kind to ourselves and appreciate what our body does for us each and every day and not believe that the goal is to look 25 again. That’s what the media and society tells us. We need to leave that unhealthy pressure behind. Do what you feel comfortable to show yourself some self love but love the body you are in ❤

    Wow, you just explained more than my aestheticians at the plastic surgery office have. I “SUFFERED” through four Morphius8 RF Micro-needling procedures thinking that the deepest needles were best. Yes, my 60 year old face looks better than when I was 50, but my jowls are starting to show again, and it’s only been a year. Until I listened to you/this, I assumed that I was going to have to go through that (pain & thousands of dollars) again. I didn’t know that those stimulation devices would make a difference for around 2 hours (for a dinner or event). BUT, your patients are very lucky to have you “keeping them young”throughout every stage of their life! (‘Glad I subscribed!)

    This was an informative video. I'm about to hit 40 and going through that second peak where my face is really starting to look "its age". Having you explain what's happening makes it all feel more manageable and that indeed it's a natural process and that there isn't really any permanent way to prevent it or make it go away. The sooner I learn to accept my new face, the happier I'll be.

I lost about 25lbs from having my 5th child. I truly believe doing facial massages consistently could help with looking younger. Thanks Doc for the information.

Dr Shereene is one of the very few dermatologists that I follow online and I always appreciate how she breaks down treatments in a concise and comprehensible manner (she would make an amazing lecturer). What I appreciate the most, however, is how she gets to the pont quickly without the need for puff and padding which is a huge plus for us time-strapped, scatter-brained and low-attention audience. Thank you Dr Shereene- I wish I had you as my dermatologist.

    Dr. Idriss, you are spot on. It did my heart good to hear you speak the truth about skin aging. I am blown away when I see people on UA-cam make all these claims of magical results from using one product or device after another. Then you have the people that run like their shoes are on fire to sign up for the next big gimmick. I've used Retin-A consistently since I was 30 years old. I am more than double that age now and everyone guesses me to be at least 20 years younger. I think good genes play a huge part in aging as well. Thank you for your honesty. I have the utmost respect for you because of your honesty. And your skin is flawless. I don't see a jowl in sight.

    Thanks for this! Personally, I realized a few weeks ago that something was happening in my neck area! Literally overnight it seems I awoke to loose folds of skin and a visible increase to the jowls. It has been on my mind constantly since then and is all I can see. My face is catching up to my age (I’m 53). Not into surgery/invasive procedures but expect to get the Nu Face as I do not mind doing it myself. I thought I was a bit nuts seeing this change, and your comments were a great relief to me - thank you!

    I really enjoyed this and found it very informative. Thank you! I'm in my 50s and recently got very sick, causing me to lose over 70 lbs, and I ended up on an NJ feeding tube for over a year. Chronic illness can wreak havoc on our facial skin, but when you lose the fat in your face and are too weak to hold the facial muscles up, helping to keep it somewhat taut...the skin itself hangs like sheets on an old clothes-line. But I can swear that it's a fact that facial exercises can and do help to rebuild the muscle tone we need in our face to help hold our skin up, if even a little. Trips to and from the Mayo clinic in Rochester have left us broke, but investing in a plumping serum has helped. A good skin care regimen, and yes, Nuface definitely helps stimulate the muscles helping to hold my skin up even if i do look like a stick. But, none of it does any good without good moisture both inside and out. Drinking water is key, and using a good fragrance free moisturizer with a decent spf. A vitamin packed smoothie, or like in my case, a "Boost" every day, has definitely helped. I'd love and appreciate a good tutorial/video lol (that's my age, haha) on chronically ill skin and / or extreme weight loss in the face!! Thank you!
