MINI FACE LIFT
The mini face lift is a procedure, currently very much in demand, that is less intrusive and more straightforward than the standard face lift.
With this technique, the oval shape of the face can be restored without loosening the skin layer as much as is done in a face lift. It is important to understand that the skin does not age on its own, the underlying tissue and muscles do too. The aging of the lower and middle part of the face always starts with the slackening of its underlying tissue. A mini face lift addresses this specific area.
As the mini face lift does not involve the complete loosening of the skin, the scars are barely visible it is a soft face lift that is extremely effective.
THE PROCEDURE
The procedure is performed under general anesthetic. The surgeon makes an incision above the hair line at the temples, just above the ear. The scars fall just inside and behind the ear, so that the hair can be worn short or off the face. The face (not the neck) is tightened to produce a well-balanced effect and a natural rejuvenation of the face. Sagging cheeks or jowls can also be removed by way of micro-liposculpture in conjunction with the mini face lift. AFTER SURGERY The rejuvenating effect of a mini face lift is truly fantastic. The jaw line is smoother and the creases from the corners of the mouth to the chin disappear.
The result is natural not at all the film star look. You should allow about a week to look presentable and be able to return to work. An anti-wrinkle treatment or eyelid correction can enhance the effect of the mini face lift and be performed at the same time.
It is recommended to follow-up your surgery with lymph drainage. IN CONCLUSION Although the procedure makes you look 8 to 10 years younger in just a few hours, it can never completely restore the face you once had this is because it is not only your skin and muscles that change with age, but also the bone structure (jaw and cheek bones) which of course is not affected by the surgery. But when the procedure is performed by an experienced and qualified plastic surgeon, the overall look of the face will not change, this remains natural.
The effects of surgery last for about 10 years, depending on the ageing process, that of course continues on afterwards.
The mini face lift is surgery that makes you feel good about yourself and makes your face radiant again.
