Mini Facelift

A mini facelift is a shorter-scar, more limited lift designed for early signs of aging, such as mild jowling and lower-face laxity. It can refresh the jawline and reduce sagging with typically less downtime than a full facelift. While results can be significant for the right candidate, it won’t address advanced neck laxity or more extensive facial aging.

Benefits

(1)
Provides natural, refreshed results with a shorter recovery period

(2)
Restores a cleaner, more sculpted jawline

(3)
Reduces mild to moderate skin laxity in the lower face

Candidates

This procedure is best suited for patients who are beginning to notice early facial aging and want a more youthful profile without the extent of a full facelift. Ideal candidates have mild to moderate sagging, good skin elasticity, and realistic expectations for subtle but noticeable enhancement.

Treatment Areas

A mini facelift focuses on rejuvenating key regions of the lower face to restore balance and definition.


​​​​​​​Areas addressed
• Jawline
• Lower cheeks
• Marionette lines

Procedure

The mini facelift uses shorter, discreet incisions to gently lift underlying tissues and tighten the skin. This targeted approach enhances facial contours while maintaining a natural appearance.

What the procedure includes

  • Strategic incisions placed around the ears

  • Lifting and repositioning of underlying facial structures

  • Skin tightening to refine contours

Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.

Recovery

Most patients experience mild swelling and tightness during the initial days after surgery, with improvement progressing steadily. Many return to routine activities within one to two weeks. Results continue to refine over the following months as tissues settle and contours improve.
