You clicked on the video after reading the title why then? You're obviously interested in the subject, or else you wouldn't have clicked

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.

@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??

My jaw is a little weaker on one side and I've had a slight jowl there since my early twenties. Sometimes I'm really insecure about it, but then I see a photo of my great-grandmother, arguably the kindest person in my family and who I was named after, and see she had it too.

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.

Personally, I think the best route for me is learning to love my new face and maybe learning some new makeup tricks bit for me that can only happen when I know this is a normal part of aging.

Right.. and after you get cataract and vision correction surgery, you will tell me how well your faces have aged. I just have both surgeries done and look at the same mirror I did in my 20’s, that’s how much I have aged in 3 decades.

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.

+1 for kora beauticaIs. I've been doing microneedling since it started 12 or so years ago. Nobody believe I am 55. They all say I am in my 30's or early 40's. 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!

“your face is not for sale” the irony 😂

Oh my GOD, how serendipitous that this video showed up in my suggested vids! I'm 38, and had a Morpheus8 treatment back in April of this year. I've never had any laser treatments on my face before. I have definitely noticed some loss in volume on and under my cheekbones since then. I was going to get another one within the next month, and now I think I shouldn't! I don't need facial fat loss, and I actually had no idea that this treatment did that. I'm so grateful I watched the entire 17 minutes, lol

I have so much respect for you, mainly because you are completely honest!

Consistency is key. i just want to age gracefully. There are 2 ladies in their early 70s in my apt complex. Neither smoke ( that's a skin killer if ever was one) Both have taken great care of their skin. I find myself looking at the older 1 s'times thinking gosh her skin is gorgeous. The REAL key is their attitude. They're funny & active. Their apt is a showroom. I invited myself over a month agter they'd moved in. It was amazing what these 2 had done. 20 yr olds don't hv that type of energy. It is 60% of what make these 2 appear gorgeous at their age. That's all we can hope for. Take care of ourselves but be the person that others are drawn to. We're all going to age, we're all going to go at some point. It's the joy we bring to a room that makes you young.🎉🎉

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 ❤

Thank you, this was informative. Truly appreciate your honesty and professionalism. I'm 59 and I start noticing the jowls about a year ago as I started gaining weight. As I am losing weight now, they are not improving so I was trying to figure out what else would help. Your video is going to save me alot of money and angst.

Thank you for your honesty regarding procedures and also does and don't. I am a new fan. ❤

I appreciate your honesty, directness and detailed information about all things on skincare. I like how quickly you get to the heart of the topic too and don't drag out your vids. Btw - you have beautiful skin so it's easy to subscribe to what you're saying. I feel like I'm getting a free derm office visit with every one of your vids. I'm a fan! Thank you. ❤

I had never seen her before, but I must say that I really enjoy her delivery. Very pleasant to watch and highly informative. Also, whomever treated her - probably an assistant under her own supervision - did a remarkable and very impressive job because her face looks completely natural! Given Dr Idriss’ background you automatically assume some type of filler in the cheek, but objectively, you can’t tell. I think her customers are fortunate to have her as their caretaker!

I’m turning 43 and I started doing facial massages everyday for about 5 months now and I’m happy with the progress. I started to see the results. My double chin started to get smaller as well. 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.

After loosing 70 lbs, I noticed "jowels". Then after gaining 50 lbs 4 years later, jowrls still there. Back on keto I lost 15 lbs so far jowels so far haven't changed. I'm looking for a good "authentic" face yoga .. I'm 63

I worked for one of the top medical schools in LA and Dermatology was one of the most competitive specialties next to Surgery. Very hard to get a residency. I like the fact that Dr. Idriss tells it like it is.

Your skin is amazing and your face is so snatched!

I really appreciate this video and your honest clinical opinion on treatments. Well done and thank you!

Thank you so much for making this video and for putting everything inside it, I recommend every girl to sit and write down every word after you because it took me 10 years to learn what you say here! I am not a doctor, just a woman who was always looking for information and here it is! I wish there were more of such specialists like you.

Jowls! I’m ok with every other aspect of an aging face. I have mini jowls that flap in the wind… ughh. I would think they would be the easiest things to get rid of surgically! Thank you for settling me straight on the that and other in-office treatments!

I am in my early thirties and I am experiencing them now badly too. Really need help for this. Glad to get to watch this video.

First timer here, and I am subscribing! Excellent video content, I noticed my jowls last year and been looking into ultherapy for a while now I heard many good things about it.

Thank you so much. I’m 45 and I’m now seeing these changes. They’re hard to see and grasp when mentally you don’t feel like your that age. I already have past scaring and hyperpigmentation. Now this, it’s a tough pill to swallow.

Esthetician here, I found this to be extremely educational! I could listen to you talk about skin forever Dr. Idris! I’m looking forward to learning more from you. 💚

Great explanation!!! I noticed the fuller bottom around my jawline and wondered how can this be when my overall weight hasn’t changed!!! This makes total sense!

You really do speak such sense..You look naturally beautiful and are such an advocate for looking natural ..wish you were in the uk 😊

Great info for those of us in out late 40's. I really trust your advice and look forward to watching weekly. Thank you, Dr. Idriss!

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!

Thank you for this video. Super honest oppinion and science based. Thank you very much, finally someone a really trust in the matter of beauty and skin health recommendations!

Ok so your. Absolutely stunning & your complexion is perfection - im 58 & a cancer survivor so glad to just be alive but the jowls have appeared & aren’t going away along with neck aging as well - your video cleared up so many questions ive had thank you 💜

I wish there was more we could do at home that would last longer than an hour. I can deal with all my other visible aging (wrinkles, age spots, and silver hair streaks --- I love those!) but jowls are hard for me to see. 😞 I don't want to do plastic surgery, so I guess I'm stuck w/ the jowls, plus learning to accept them as a natural part of aging and loving my body for what it is right now. Many people don't live to be my age, so it's a blessing to have these changes happening to my body.

Good for you tbh! It's not easy to accept changes in our body and to really lean into the idea that even if you don't fully confirm (anymore) to what society considers 'conveniently attractive', you still have worth. It's a real challenge to internalise that but it's also truly a radical path to true self-love!

" As we get wiser..." instead of As we get older Waw!!! love it!

You are just fabulous. You are helpful while being very realistic. THANK YOU!

I’ve done 8 threads (4 on each side) twice, and both times it didn’t work. Disappointed by that and no longer use that. I’m excited for your product to restock!

The most realistic and honest professional advice I've seen in a long time. I so much appreciate your information Dr. Idriss. It's been super helpful as I was considering the procedures that you had described as ineffective and even damaging in a way. I just subscribed to your channel and "liked" your presentation. Thank you again!

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 KZread 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.

Honest,authentic, cause to effect to tx to consequence, awsome tutorial!!!!!!

I appreciate this! Surprised to see any at home tools recommended, great to see the fine print communicated. I wish you were my dermatologist. Also, ever since popularization of buccal fat removal I did the visual math in my head and noticed in before and after pics that many large cheeked women were getting it, but it had no impact on already stretched skin, resulting even in more prominent nasolabial lines. This is the first time I've watched one of your videos rather than a short, and I'm glad to see what I thought of buccal fat removal confirmed.

As usual, brilliant content and excellent delivery! 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.
