Mini lift is a surgical procedure that surgeons successfully perform on patients with excess skin in the area of the midface and lower part of the face, if their skin in the neck area is still in good shape. The patients undergoing this surgery are mostly younger or middle aged people, who are not happy with the state of their skin in the midfacial area.
In such cases, there is no need to tighten the skin of the neck and thus, the full facelift procedure is unnecessary. Tightening the skin of the middle part of the face is enough. This is a minor procedure, performed under enhanced local anesthetic.
Just as with full facelift, with mini facelift or s-lift, surgeons can combine the following cosmetic surgery procedures: upper and lower eyelid surgery, dermabrasion of the upper and lower lip, forehead lift, etc. With mini facelift, our surgeons can also use the method of deep lifting, which comprises not only the tightening of the skin, but also the deep facial structures – i.e. muscles of the face. This way, they achieve a longer lasting, more complete effect of the mini lifting.
Many of our clients combine mini facelift with another cosmetic surgery abroad since they want to take as much advantage as they can of their time overseas and of the excellence of Polish surgeons. While in Poland many of our clients add mini facelift to procedures like breast augmentation or liposuction.
