Procedure Overview

A Mini Facelift is a cosmetic surgical procedure targeting the lower face and neck, focusing on lifting sagging skin and redefining the jawline through smaller, well-concealed incisions.

  • Performed under local or general anesthesia (as chosen by patient).
  • Incisions made along the hairline and around the ears (short scar technique).
  • Skin is gently lifted and repositioned, with excess skin carefully removed.

Key Benefits & Results

This procedure is designed to reverse the effects of mild to moderate facial aging gracefully and efficiently.

  • Reduced appearance of jowls and sagging skin.
  • Significantly improved jawline and neck definition.
  • A rested, more youthful, and naturally refreshed appearance.
  • The ultimate procedure to restore a person's natural beauty.
