Invest in treatments at 44 or save for facelift?

Just that. I’ve been doing some research into treatments as for the first time in my life starting to feel I could well do with some help. I have not looked after my skin very well and whilst I think I probably have good genes I’ve been a sun worshipper and it’s crept up on me. Mostly the lower face is ageing me I feel (jowls, nasolabial folds, neck starting to sag) but also getting some significant crows feet.

Would I be better off putting money aside each month for a facelift and potentially neck lift at 50 (or at least a chance to do it then, or wait a bit longer if I wanted) rather than spending it on fillers/botox/profilo etc? I’m not that bothered with how I look right now but feel like in 5 years I could be and the facelift might be the most cost effective option. Or, is having regular less invasive treatments starting earlier on a better bet?

To reiterate previous posters, a face lift, without a shadow of a doubt. Don't waste your money on any tweakments, save it all. A face lift will get the very best result on skin that has not been tweaked in any way.
