Mini facelift gives an overall lift to the neck and lower third of the face. As one age, skin loses its elasticity and many people develop loose skin folds creating a heavy, jowly, and tired appearance. Performed under local anesthesia, this minimally invasive outpatient procedure can restore a more youthful appearance, firm the lower facial area, improve jawline definition, and restore the neck-chin angle.

Mini facelift produces an age-diminishing effect so that patients look younger, rested, and energized. Facial renovation is achieved by repositioning the skin on the lower face to get rid of sagging and droopiness. The mini is safer because it is less invasive than a full facelift and does not require general anesthesia (although general anesthesia is available upon request). Its fast recovery time and lower prices have made it available to a wide range of patients who are looking for facial renovation at a reasonable price. Mini facelift patients see quick, natural-looking results with very little recovery time.
 
Candidates

 Normally between 30 and 65 years old, the best candidates are those in good health with mild to moderate lower facial and/or neck laxity. The mini facelift is ideal for patients who want to stay ahead of the aging process. It is also effectual as a follow-up for patients who had full facelifts beforehand, but longing for additional renovation of the face and/or neck area. Similarly, it does not exclude undergoing full facelift procedures in the future.
