A mini facelift is a less invasive alternative to the traditional facelift, designed to address early signs of aging in the lower face and jawline. It is ideal for individuals who want subtle rejuvenation with less downtime and minimal scarring.
At Medixir Clinic, the mini facelift is performed using smaller incisions, typically located around the ears. Through these incisions, the surgeon tightens the underlying facial muscles and removes or repositions excess skin to create a firmer, more youthful appearance.
This procedure targets issues such as mild jowls, slight skin laxity, and early sagging along the jawline and cheeks. It is a popular choice among patients in their late 30s to 50s who are not yet ready for a full facelift but want to refresh their look.
The mini facelift is usually performed under local anesthesia with sedation, and the surgery takes approximately 1.5 to 2.5 hours. Because the approach is less invasive, patients experience less swelling, bruising, and a shorter recovery period compared to traditional facelifts.
Most patients can return to normal activities within 5 to 7 days, with full recovery in about two weeks. The results are natural-looking and typically last for 5 to 7 years, depending on individual skin quality and aging process.
One of the key advantages of the mini facelift is that it provides noticeable improvements in facial contour while preserving the patient’s natural expressions and facial harmony. It can also be combined with other procedures such as neck lift, eyelid surgery, or non-surgical treatments for more comprehensive rejuvenation.
Ideal candidates for a mini facelift are those in good health with mild to moderate facial sagging and realistic expectations. It is especially beneficial for individuals who wish to refresh their appearance without undergoing major surgery.
